A Simple Guide To Buying A Single Girder Crane

Single girder overhead crane is a general purpose crane. Mainly used for fixed-span material handling and equipment maintenance equipment in machinery manufacturing, equipment, yards, warehouses, etc. Single-girder bridge cranes are not suitable for the following situations: environments with risks of explosions and fires; relative humidity greater than 85%, and environments filled with water Places with corrosive gases; enhanced molten metal, toxic substances and flammable and explosive items.

How to operate a single girder crane

Electric single-girder cranes have two working modes: ground and aerial. Ground operation is divided into two types: handle operation and remote control handle operation, and aerial operation is driver's cab operation. The driver's cab is divided into two types: open type and closed type, and can be installed on the left or right according to the actual situation. The inlet direction is divided into side and end faces to meet the user's selection requirements in various situations.

Common models of single girder cranes

"Single beam" refers to double beam crane. The crane beam is the load-bearing part of the crane. Cranes below 16 tons generally use a single beam as the load-bearing capacity. Cranes above 20 tons generally use two beams to bear the load. . "Suspension" is a structural form of crane wheels. The wheels are suspended from the end beams, and the crane model is LX. Because of its special structure and from a safety perspective, its tonnage is generally 3 tons, and most are less than 10 tons. The wheels under the end beam are conventional cranes, model LD. Electric single-girder cranes mainly include LDA electric single-girder cranes, LD electric single-girder bridge cranes, HD electric single-girder cranes and LX electric single-girder suspension cranes.

Before using an electric single-girder crane, you should pay attention to the following points:

For single-girder bridge cranes with driver's cab, the hooks, wire ropes and safety device components should be inspected according to the requirements of the on-site inspection. If abnormalities are found, they should be eliminated.

For single-girder bridge cranes operating on the ground, each shift should designate a dedicated person to conduct inspections according to the on-site inspection requirements. If abnormalities are found, they should be eliminated.

The operator must ensure that no one is on the platform or track before switching off the main power supply. When the power circuit breaker is locked or there is a sign, it must be removed by the original staff before the main power can be turned off.

Electric single-girder cranes have been widely used in modern enterprises, reducing workers' labor intensity, improving production efficiency, and playing an important role in realizing automation and modernization.
