AFE manufactures a wide range of heavy duty cranes and systems designed and manufactured for specific industrial applications. We offer single girder overhead and double girder overhead cranes including special cranes.
Overhead bridge cranes are essential for material handling in many industries, from manufacturing to warehousing. Their efficiency and safety largely depend on accurate specifications capable of handling heavy loads. Crane system specifications provide detailed characteristics that define a crane’s capabilities and limitations.
The maximum weight the crane can lift.
The horizontal distance between the crane’s rails.
The maximum vertical distance the hook can travel.
The movement speed of the crane, hoist, and trolley.
The frequency and intensity of crane usage.
The electrical requirements for the crane.
The type of controls (pendants, radio, cabin).
The crane’s suitability for specific environments (temperature, humidity, explosive atmospheres).
Precise specifications are critical not only to production and performance but for safety, cost effectiveness and longevity of the crane.
Incorrect specifications can lead to overloading, structural failure, and accidents.
A crane matched to the workload ensures optimal performance.
Oversized cranes are unnecessary expenses, while undersized ones can limit productivity.
Adhering to industry standards and regulations is essential.
Proper specifications aid in maintenance planning and spare parts procurement.
By carefully considering and specifying these factors, businesses can select or design overhead bridge cranes that perfectly suit their operations.
