Types of Travelling Gantry Cranes
Full Gantry Cranes
Full gantry cranes are the heavyweight champions of the crane world. They have two legs that ride on a rail system installed on the ground. Can you picture the massive cranes at shipping ports? Those are full gantry cranes!
Semi Gantry Cranes
Semi gantry cranes are the more economical siblings of full gantry cranes. They have one leg with wheels that run on a track, while the other side runs on a rail mounted to a wall structure. Perfect for applications where space and budget are constraints, don't you think?
Portable Gantry Cranes
Portable gantry cranes, as the name suggests, are mobile and flexible. They can be easily moved around a workspace and are ideal for small-scale tasks. You could say they're the handyman of gantry cranes!
With the design concept of cutting down customer's loss caused by crane problems and downtime, SINOKO CRANE has developed the European double girder gantry crane with the main features as follow:
1) High reliability, safety, free maintenance rate;
2) Work duty: FEM2M, M5
3) Protection class: IP55
4) Insulation class: F
5) Continuing rate: 60% ( for the high class motor)
6) Cooling rate: 30% than normal crane
7) Over temperature protection: 170℃
8) Compact design, small size, low dead weight, low headroom
9) Low noise
10) Investment-saved---the workshop's civil work cost, due to crane's light dead weight and low wheel pressure.
11) Power-saved. The total motor power is much lower than normal design
