Description
LH type electric double-girder overhead traveling crane: The LH type 3 – 32t cranes with a span of 7.5 – 31.5m produced by our company. The main lifting device is a seated type hoist. Compared with the same type of QD electric double-girder overhead traveling crane, it has the characteristics of light weight and low cost, and is suitable for low-height workshops where the QD type is not suitable for installation.
QD type electric double-girder overhead traveling crane: The electric double-girder crane is composed of four parts: the bridge, the trolley, the traveling mechanism of the large vehicle, and the electrical equipment. This product is suitable for workshops, freight yards and warehouses in departments such as stations, ports, industrial and mining enterprises, etc., and is used for lifting, transporting and loading and unloading various materials within the fixed span.
According to different environments and different uses, it is divided into many forms such as slow speed, explosion-proof, insulation, electromagnetic, grab bucket, double trolley, dual-purpose, and triple-purpose. Our company produces various double-girder overhead traveling cranes.
Energy-saving (European-style) crane: The energy-saving (European-style) crane has the characteristics of light dead weight, compact structure and low energy consumption. A trolley and a lifting mechanism, trolley traveling mechanism and large vehicle traveling mechanism are set on the bridge to realize the handling of materials and objects in three-dimensional space. With a unique design concept, it has the characteristics of small size, light weight and small wheel pressure.


Features
1. Heavy-Duty Structural Design
Each double girder crane is manufactured with Q345B high-strength steel, undergoes finite element analysis (FEA) during the design phase, and is stress-tested before leaving the factory. This ensures structural integrity under peak loads and extends service life beyond 20 years with proper maintenance.
2. High-Performance Hoist System
Equipped with HC-series wire rope electric hoists as standard, Yangyumech double girder cranes deliver smooth, precise lifting with dual-speed control. For demanding applications, WMH or KITO hoists can be specified. The hoist is mounted on a four-wheel trolley running along the top of the girders, maximizing hook height and clearance.
3. Dual-Speed Control
Both main and auxiliary hooks feature dual-speed operation (e.g., 0.24/2.4 m/min), allowing operators to perform both precise micro-adjustments and rapid bulk lifting. This significantly improves operational efficiency on the shop floor.
4. Flexible Control Options
Choose between ground control (pendant push-button station) or cabin control (operator cab) depending on your facility layout and operational preferences. Cabin-controlled models offer superior visibility and safety for high-capacity operations.
5. Custom Configurations
Yangyumech engineers each double girder crane to your specific requirements — custom spans, lifting heights, power supplies, explosion-proof designs for hazardous environments, and specialized coatings for corrosive conditions are all available.


Single Girder vs Double Girder Overhead Crane: How to Choose
The choice between a single girder and double girder overhead crane depends on several factors:
Choose a Double Girder Overhead Crane When:
– Your lifting capacity exceeds 10 tons (standard single girder range is 0.3T–20T)
– You need a span greater than 25 meters (single girder spans max out around 25.5m)
– You require maximum hook height — double girder designs mount the hoist above the girders, leaving the full height available for lifting
– Your operation runs at high duty cycles (A5 or higher)
– You’re lifting with both main and auxiliary hooks simultaneously
– Your facility has limited headroom and you need to optimize lifting height
Choose a Single Girder Overhead Crane When:
– Lifting capacity is 0.3T to 20T
– Span requirements are under 25 meters
– Budget is a primary constraint — single girder cranes cost 20–35% less to purchase and install
– Installation space is tight and a more compact design is preferred
– The crane operates at lower duty cycles (A3–A4)
Still unsure? Tell Yangyumech your capacity, span, lifting height, and working environment, and Yangyumech’s engineers will recommend the most cost-effective solution for your application.

Purchasing Process


FAQs About Choosing the Right Gantry Crane and Supplier
In order to obtain accurate quotes for custom overhead cranes, providing the following core information will greatly improve efficiency:
1. Key specifications: including rated lifting weight (tons), span (i.e., track spacing, meters), and lifting height (meters), which is the basis of the design.
2. Use environment and working conditions: Explain the conditions of the installation site (such as indoor/outdoor, temperature, humidity) and work level (busy level), which determines the material selection and configuration level of the structure.
3. Specific configuration requirements: clarify the drive mode (such as frequency conversion control), brand preferences for electrical components, safety devices (such as overload limiters, anti-collision systems), and whether special functions such as remote control are required.
4. Installation and service: confirm the on-site power supply conditions (voltage, frequency), installation conditions, and specific expectations for delivery time, installation and commissioning, and after-sales service.
The more detailed the information provided, the more accurate and reliable the solutions and quotations obtained.
1. Span and lifting capacity: this is the foundation.The larger the span and the higher the rated lifting weight, the material and design costs of the main beam and structure will increase significantly, and the higher the price.
2. Working level and frequency of use: The working level (A1-A8) represents the busy level and load status of the crane.Cranes with frequent and heavy-duty use require more durable motors, gearboxes and structural parts, and the cost is naturally higher than that of lightweight and occasionally used equipment.
3. Structure and configuration: The double beam is more complex and stable than the single beam structure, and the price is higher.At the same time, the lifting height, operating speed, motor brand, control system (ordinary vs frequency conversion), and the level of safety devices (such as anti-swing, load monitoring) all directly affect the final quotation.
4. Degree of customization and brand service: completely standard models have lower costs.The customized design based on the workshop environment (such as explosion-proof and high temperature), special processes (such as metallurgical special), brand added value, and after-sales guarantee system will all be reflected in the price.
In simple terms, when buying a bridge crane, it is necessary to consider “how much, how frequently, what environment and what configuration”, which determine its core value and price.
Which crane to choose mainly depends on your specific needs. You can quickly judge from the following four core aspects:
-Single-beam bridge crane: it is suitable for conventional workshops with light and medium loads (usually ≤20 tons), medium span, and low frequency of use. It is the most economical and versatile choice.
-Double-girder bridge crane: used for heavy-duty, long-span, or high-work-level occasions (such as frequent hoisting, metallurgy, heavy-duty assembly). Its stability, durability, and safety are higher, but the cost is also increased accordingly.
-Free vertical crane (cantilever/column type): suitable for fixed working points and working conditions with limited rotation range, such as beside machine tools, maintenance areas, or production line stations, it can efficiently use corner space and be installed flexibly.
-Grab crane: It is specially used for the handling, loading, and unloading of bulk materials (such as grain, coal, sand, and gravel). The only reason to choose it is that you need to deal with such unpackaged loose materials.
In simple terms, you can filter according to this logic:
First, according to the lifting weight and span, choose between a single beam and a double beam.
If the scope of operation is highly concentrated and the space is limited, consider a free vertical.
If the handling object is bulk material, it points directly to the grab type.
Delivery times largely depend on whether the crane is standard or customized. Based on our experience, standard single-girder and double-girder cranes can be produced more quickly, while cranes with special spans, duty ratings, or environmental requirements naturally require additional engineering design time.
