The electric overhead travelling crane is a robust and reliable lifting solution, designed to provide efficient material handling in industrial settings. With its advanced electric motor and overhead travelling mechanism, this crane is ideal for a variety of lifting tasks, including the transportation of heavy loads in factories, warehouses, and construction sites. It offers superior lifting capacity, operational flexibility, and ease of use, making it a vital tool for businesses aiming to improve productivity and safety.
Electric Chain Hoist: The primary lifting mechanism, utilizing an electric motor to drive the chain for vertical load movement.
Load Chain: A high-strength alloy chain that ensures smooth, controlled lifting performance, designed to withstand heavy-duty use.
Trolley: A component that supports the hoist and moves it horizontally along the crane’s girder. It can be configured for either single or double girder systems.
Girder: The central horizontal beam that supports both the hoist and the trolley, available in either profile or box girder designs.
Hooks: Heavy-duty forged steel hooks, designed to meet DIN 15401 industrial safety standards for secure lifting.
Control System: Provides operators with control options, including a pendant control system (festoon style) or an optional wireless remote control for added flexibility.
Travel Motor & Drive: Features a stepless travel motor for smooth, controlled horizontal motion, allowing precise movement.
Power Supply System: Utilizes a drag chain or cable system to ensure reliable, uninterrupted power delivery to the hoist.
Load Capacity: Capable of lifting loads up to 30 tons.
Hoisting Height (HOL): Maximum lifting height of up to 12 meters.
Hoisting Speed: Variable speeds from 0.6 to 7 m/min, depending on crane configuration.
Operating Temperature Range: Designed to operate in temperatures ranging from -10°C to +40°C.
Suitable Environment: Ideal for indoor usage.
Number of Hoists: Equipped with a single hoist per crane.
Crane Configuration: Available in both single girder and double girder designs.
Girder Type: Features either profile girder for spans up to 12 meters or box girder for spans up to 30 meters.
Travel Motion: Equipped with stepless frequency control for smooth, variable motion.
Lifting Control: Options for single speed, dual speed, or stepless variable frequency control.
Power Supply to Hoist: Power supplied via flat cable or drag chain.
Rated Voltage: Compatible with voltage ratings of 380–415V at 50Hz or 440–480V at 60Hz.
Control Type: Pendant control system (festoon type) or optional wireless remote for ease of operation.
Compact and Lightweight: Easy to install and relocate, ideal for low headroom spaces
Cost-Effective: Lower initial investment and maintenance costs
Precise Load Control: Accurate vertical lifting and positioning
Low Noise and Vibration: Smooth, quiet operation for indoor environments
Simple Installation: Suitable for small-scale cranes, monorails, or ceiling systems
