Application scope of gantry crane

Gantry crane is a kind of crane, which is composed of main beam, outrigger and ground beam. It is usually installed outdoors. It is a simple and convenient lifting equipment. Gantry crane is a common equipment in the lifting industry, which has good stability and practicality, so it is widely used. Shandong gantry crane manufacturer will introduce some applications of gantry crane.

There is no doubt about the use of gantry cranes in ports. Port freight has a large number of containers, and the use of gantry crane can safely and quickly complete the loading and unloading of port cargo containers. This field is very mature when using gantry crane for operation, and through expansion, the gantry crane can be used in the field of ship parking and ship, so as to realize all directional functions in the real sense.

So what is the cantilever of the gantry crane? The simple understanding is that the part where the main beam extends beyond the outrigger is called cantilever. If the running track of the crane on one side is taken as the benchmark, the part where the main beam extends beyond the track is the cantilever of the gantry crane.

The manufacturing of large-scale equipment often requires the assistance of hoisting equipment. Such as shipbuilding. Relying on manpower, it is impossible to spread a large volume of hundreds of thousands of tons and rise and fall at will. This will be accomplished with the help of the hoisting equipment of the gantry crane.

Generally, the gantry crane is used for normal production operations within the span, or for stacking and moving materials. As long as the transportation vehicle stops on the normal channel, the materials can be hoisted normally, which is very convenient. Since the gantry crane with cantilever is very convenient, are all gantry cranes equipped with cantilever? In fact, this is also based on the actual use needs of the site and the situation of the site. Different occasions have different design requirements and use requirements. For example, indoor gantry crane is not suitable for design with cantilever. Therefore, the specific form of gantry crane depends on the actual use needs of customers.
