What are the advantages of bridge cranes compared to gantry cranes
A bridge type crane that runs on elevated tracks, also known as overhead cranes. The bridge frame of the bridge crane runs longitudinally along the tracks laid on the elevated bridges on both sides, and the hoisting trolley runs horizontally along the tracks laid on the bridge frame to form a rectangular working range, which can make full use of the space under the bridge frame to lift materials. Obstructed by ground equipment. This type of crane is widely used in indoor and outdoor warehouses, workshops, docks and open storage yards.
When it comes to bridge cranes, it has to be compared with its "little partner"-gantry cranes; in comparison, the main girder form, lifting tonnage, service span, lifting height and other specifications are all Under the same circumstances, the price of bridge cranes is much cheaper than gantry cranes. The cost is low while the functionality is not reduced, which is a very good choice for those small and medium-sized enterprises that are just starting out.
In addition, the overall operation of the bridge crane is carried out on the track of the bridge frame. Its working range generally forms a relatively standardized area above the factory building, which is basically not affected by ground equipment, and can also make full use of the space under the bridge frame. Material lifting. It is both efficient and space-saving to work. For small-scale enterprise plants, this is not a double-best choice?
Let's take a look at the movement form of the bridge crane! It has three forms of movement, namely: the cart is driven by the electric motor to move longitudinally forward and backward along the workshop track, the lifting mechanism of the crane is moved horizontally and left and right on the main beam with the electric drive of the cart, and the lifting hook carries heavy objects up and down vertically. sports. It can be seen that the movement form of the bridge crane has strong flexibility and can meet the needs of different hoisting work.
For small-scale enterprise plants that want to reduce costs, increase work efficiency, and expand output value, bridge cranes can be said to directly hit the pain points of users’ demand. Therefore, more enterprise plants choose to put into use in production workshops or factories. Bridge crane.
