4 major determinants of the price of gantry cranes

Gantry cranes belong to a category of heavy special equipment. In recent years, in order to meet the lifting work of large cargo in ports and other areas, the number of use of this equipment has increased significantly. However, when it comes to the procurement of such professional equipment, buyers may be faced with the phenomenon that they cannot make correct inquiries due to ignorance of the equipment. 4 factors that determine the price of portal cranes

 In fact, there are four main factors that determine the price of gantry cranes:

1. Lifting weight When a buyer makes an inquiry, the crane manufacturer usually asks the lifting weight of the product as the first question. This refers to the weight of items to be lifted by the portal crane. Under normal circumstances, the lifting capacity of the crane produced by the enterprise will be greater than this value to ensure that the lifting work can be carried out smoothly.

2. Amplitude This parameter is also an important factor for manufacturers to determine the price of gantry cranes. This parameter refers to the position of the slewing center of the crane to the position of the hook. The generation of this data is mainly determined by the size of the goods to be lifted, and site restrictions.

3. Lifting height This data of portal crane refers to the height that the hook needs to rise after grabbing the goods. It is worth noting that since the goods to be hoisted may be below the water level, the generation of this data should include the height below the water level that needs to be hoisted. The calculation of this parameter should take into account the height of the object itself and the site requirements.

4. The actual internal structure of cranes for different purposes will be different. For users, the easy-to-use portal crane refers to equipment that is tailor-made for itself and meets the needs of users. Therefore, during the inquiry process, the purchaser needs to specify the location and requirements of the equipment. In fact, in the inquiry process of portal cranes, in addition to the above-mentioned major points, buyers should also consider whether they need explosion-proof, working level and other issues. Of course, if buyers want to buy the most trustworthy portal crane brand, inquiry is only the first step, but it is also the most important step.
