How to choose the right crane
For the selection of cranes, we must follow a basic principle-as the saying goes, "you get what you pay for." Good quality cranes must be relatively expensive; low-priced cranes must be of relatively poor quality. There is no free lunch in the world, and there is no free quality guarantee in the world. Based on this, the user can choose the appropriate crane according to his own usage and the actual situation of the heavy objects being lifted. Here's how to choose the right crane.
1. Large lifting capacity and frequent use. Such as a prefabricated factory. The prefabrication plant can be described as one of the several types of plants that rely heavily on cranes. During the production period, the work of the crane is almost never intermittent! For such factories and mines that use the products of the old state-owned manufacturers, the foreign-funded enterprises are better. Although the price is more expensive, it is durable and safe, which can guarantee your production. The products of many private enterprises are carefully considered. This is not my intention to belittle private enterprises, because they often neglect the quality of their products in order to reduce costs, or even ignore the quality of their products at all. Using the cranes they produce will require major repairs in about a year, and you will need to repair them frequently after that, which will affect your production and handling, and even affect your company's reputation.
2. The hoisting capacity is large, but it is not used frequently (the hoisting is only once every three to five days). For this kind of use, the products of private enterprises with good quality reputation can be selected, because the length of the crane's service life depends on the size of the lifting capacity and the frequency of use, especially the frequency of use. Although your hoisting capacity is large, your ten-year use frequency cannot keep up with others' one-year use frequency. No matter how good the crane is, it is impossible for a crane of ordinary quality to be hoisted up and out of service. So you can spend less money and buy products of decent quality.
3. The lifting capacity is small and it is not used frequently. If so, you can take the price as an important consideration, and buy which type of crane is cheap, so that it can guarantee the use while saving production costs. But this choice is only limited to the case of small lifting capacity.
4. The lifting capacity is small, but it is used very frequently. The budget can be made according to the financial situation of the enterprise at that time. If the financial situation is good, you can choose products of high price and good quality; if the financial situation is poor, you can choose the products of the private enterprises with better reputation according to the "Article 2". Don't: Even if the financial resources are insufficient, don't just talk about the price, because cranes are not used frequently, otherwise the "cheap and inferior" cranes will be "parked" after a period of time, and you will lose more than the gains.
5. Different types of cranes can also be selected according to the frequency of use. For example, in the production workshop, the utilization rate of cranes is not very high. You can choose a crane plus an electric chain hoist for hoisting. The electric chain hoist runs smoothly with low noise and low price.
6. If your lifting capacity is large, and you are lifting valuables, and the frequency of use is high, then you must not care about the price!
The above is an introduction to the main points of choosing the right crane.
