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.
