5t Gantry Crane

The 5t gantry crane delivers a powerful yet compact lifting solution for industries requiring dependable performance. Perfect for warehouses, assembly lines, and maintenance workshops, this crane combines high load capacity with flexible installation options. Its robust steel structure, precise hoisting system, and smooth horizontal movement ensure safe, efficient, and cost-effective handling of materials up to 5 tons. Designed for both indoor and outdoor applications, the 5t gantry crane supports productivity while minimizing setup complexity.

Main Components

  • Wire Rope Hoist: The primary lifting mechanism that utilizes a drum to wind and unwind the wire rope, enabling vertical movement of loads.

  • Lifting Rope: Comes standard with synthetic rope, with an option for high-strength steel wire rope for heavier-duty applications.

  • Trolley: Supports the hoist and moves along the crane’s girder horizontally, compatible with both single and double girder setups.

  • Main Girder: The main horizontal beam supporting the trolley and hoist, available in profile or box girder configurations.

  • End Carriages: Contain the wheels that facilitate the crane’s travel along the rails.

  • Hooks: Manufactured according to DIN 15401 standards to ensure safe and reliable lifting.

  • Control System: Can be operated via pendant control, remote control, or integrated intelligent features.

  • Electrical System: Includes motors, wiring, and optional smart functions such as hook centering and obstacle avoidance.
