What is Crane Lifting Space?

Lifting space means the room between the lowest point and the highest point that crane hook can reach.
Overhead crane, usually called bridge crane or overhead bridge crane, is a type of common indoor crane. Overhead crane is especially desgined and manufactured to lift heavy loads in order to guarantee working efficiency. Generally, overhead crane consists of lifting mechanism, traveling mechanism, bridge and electrical system. When it is working, the traveling mechanism ( including various hoists, winch, traveling trolley and so on) travels along the main beams to change the place of heavy loads.

When Will You Need a Overhead Crane to Help You?

OVERHEAD CRANE is used to moving bulky, heavy, and cumbersome loads down the aisles and floor of a manufacturing facility can be dangerous and time consuming. By making use of the overhead space of a factory by installing an overhead crane, applications can be performed more efficiently, cost effectively, and safer. Loads can be easily lifted, lowered, and moved through the unused space to save time and energy.

Some overhead crane are specially designed for some industrial application, like grab bucket overhead crane for bulky material handling, explosion-proof overhead crane for explosive environment, ladle overhead crane for metallurgical industry and so on. If you are looking for a indoor overhead crane for your space limited workshop, just read more about following types of overhhead crane in Yuantai

Types of Overhead CraneS Solve Your Lifting Space Problem

  1. Top running overhead crane

    Top running overhead crane can save more lifting space by its structure ---a fixed rail or track system installed on the top of each runway beam .The top running cranes can be designed into a single girder overhead crane or double girder overhead crane configuration. A single girder bridge utilizes an underhung trolley and hoist, while a double girder design most often utilizes a top running trolley and hoist. And double girder top running overhead crane in Yuantai , the crane hoist and hoist trolley can run on the top of the two main girders with the lifting hook placing between the two crane beams which will can maximize the lifting height of the overhead travelling crane.
 
  1. Crane with low headroom hoist

 

Low headroom overhead crane has more lifting space by the position of hoist--installed at one side of girder.

  1. Electric hoist is placed at one side of girder, the lifting space is increased and  lower the requirement to factory height and production cost.
  2. Due to the wide tread design, tight structure and strong rigidity, the trolley can move smoothly, quietly, and safely.
  3. Flexible operation, great performance and high working efficiency.
  1. European overhead crane

 

European overhead crane have more lifting space by European hoist. The crane hoists can make full use of plant space.

  1. European hoists are installed, which help increase lifting height and improve production efficiency
  2. Overheating protection: the hoisting motor is equipped with thermistor, which has a good overheating protection function
  3. Great appearance, high quality, easy installation and maintainance
