Selection of Gantry Crane

Selection of Gantry Crane


Gantry crane

1.      Choose of gantry crane
Under normal conditions, the lifting capacity less than 50t, span less than 35m, no special use requirements, you can choose single girder gantry crane. If demands of large width between gantry legs, high operating speed, or often lifting heavy and long pieces object, you should choose double girder gantry crane.
 
2.  Span and length of cantilever
Gantry crane span is an important factor affecting crane self-weight. During selection, under satisfy the crane operating conditions and under the premise of fit the specifications of span series, should try to reduce the span.
 
3.  Judge criterion of wheelbase  
(a) Meet the requires of security and stability along the gantry crane track direction;
(b) Dimension and shape of the object can realize smoothly through the supporting legs flat steel structure;
(c) Make the span S with the wheelbase B in a specific proportional relationship, usually take wheelbase B = (1 / 4-1 / 6) S.
 
4.  Determine the distance scale of gantry crane
During operation, between gantry crane external, yard goods and transport vehicles channel, there should be left certain spatial scales, in order to facilitate loading and unloading operations. Usually delivery vehicles loading and unloading within the span, it should keep more than 0.7m distance with the gantry legs. When the crane spreader is not in operation, it should keep a distance of more than 0.5m with the delivery vehicles, when lifting object through gantry legs, there should be a distance of more than 0.5m.
