3 Ton Overhead Crane Types

Overhead cranes come in different types and designs, including:

Single girder crane: with one bridge girder supported by two end trucks, a single girder crane is most commonly used to handle light weight. It is ideal for light duty to moderate lifting applications. Since only one girder is required, the crane is less expensive and requires simpler hoist and trolley design. What’s more, it is easy to install and maintain the equipment.

Top running crane: it is available in single girder and double girder configurations. The crane runs on top of the runway beam which is supported by the building structure or engineering columns. The top running overhead crane can be engineered to move extremely heavy loads.

Underhung crane: also known as under running crane or underslung crane. Since the crane is supported from the building roof structure, it can maximize the utilization of floor space and eliminate the needs for support columns. This type of crane is ideal for light use or lower capacity applications. If your facility’s height is not adequate to support a top running crane or there are no support columns inside your facility, an underhung bridge crane may be a cost-effective alternative.

Features That Make A Difference to Your Applications

Sturdy metal structure – it is made of high quality steel for reliability and durability.

Hoist and trolley design – electric wire rope hoist and chain hoist are available to accommodate your lifting needs.

Electric motor – the lifting and travelling electric motors are designed with closed structure. They are IP44 or IP 54 protected, class B or class F insulated. For travelling mechanism, a ZDY type conical motor or YSE soft start motor is utilized for smooth start and stable operation.

Remote control – the electric overhead crane can be controlled remotely for much safer lifting operation.

Durable paint system – the crane is coated with a durable paint system for longer life and better appearance.

Advantages of Using An Overhead Bridge Crane

Streamlining workflow

Improving work safety and efficiency

Easy to install, maintain and service

Ideal for both indoor and outdoor applications.

Applications of 3 Ton Overhead Bridge Crane

Typical overhead crane: the crane is designed for general lifting purposes in workshops, warehouses, material yards and production facilities.

Steel mill or foundry crane: it is specifically designed to lift and move hot molten metal in steel mills and foundries. Due to high heat environment, the crane and the electrical equipment are required to be insulated for safety.

Explosion proof crane: it is ideal for handling heavy loads in explosive or flammable atmosphere. An explosion-proof electric hoist is used to lift and lower the load. Stainless steel wheels or nylon wheels are designed to avoid friction during lifting operation.

Bulk handling crane: it is designed to handle bulk cargoes such as coal, mineral ore, sand, soil and other industrial bulk materials using an integral grab.

Whatever your applications, we are able to design the most appropriate overhead crane system that helps you achieve maximum in efficiency, productivity, safety and durability.

In order to get the right type of crane as well as a proper quote, you need to consider a few things when talking to the crane manufacturer:

The crane configuration you need (single girder, double girder, top running and under running system)

Your required crane specification, such as load capacity, span length, lifting height, lifting speed and hook coverage.

The environmental condition (heat, dust, explosive, etc)

Duty cycle or service classification (the frequency of the crane being used, the average rated load, how many lifts per hour, etc.)

Additional structural or building consideration. For example, do you need a runway? If it is, what is the runway length? Do you need a new construction facility? If your answer is yes, we can offer the design and fabrication of steel structure workshop or shed.
