08 Apr, 2021

gantry crane requirement:

  • The order is from a world leading manufacturer of commercial modular buildings manufacturing facility located in Pennsylvania.
  • Recently the company shifted the construction of modular walls from lumber to steel. This shift required the creation of new production lines at their facility.
  • Because of the tight spaces around the machinery, to look for an effective material handling solution, the general manager found us, DQCRANE.

Customized crane solution:

  • After watching the video of the steel cutting application, our engineer reviewed the project and quickly developed a custom solution.
  • Lifting capacity of this portable gantry crane is 10 ton, span 9m, lifting height 5.32m, and is power driven by motors on gantry legs.

  • The crane operator uses a push button control pendant that is mounted on the side of the gantry to easily position the crane over the steel.
  • The pendant also allows him to control 10-ton power driven wire rope hoist, to raise the steel bundle and the gantry is powered to move the load down the tracks towards a conveyer that feeds the ban saw.
