The Problem
The manufacturing facility needed a 20-ton lifting system inside an existing workshop with limited roof clearance. The selected crane had to achieve the required hook height without major building modification while keeping wheel loads, runway clearances, and installation access within the existing structure.
Our Approach
A European-style single girder overhead crane was configured with compact end carriages, a low-headroom lifting unit, an optimized girder profile, and VFD travel controls. The design review coordinated hook approach, maintenance clearances, electrification, and runway interface loads.
From Selection To Handover
- Available roof clearance and required hook approach dimensions
- Existing runway beam capacity and allowable wheel loads
- Production load spectrum, travel frequency, and positioning needs
- Installation access without major structural interruption
- Compact single girder crane bridge and low-headroom lifting unit
- VFD-controlled lifting and travel drives with pendant and remote controls
- Runway interface review, electrification, limits, buffers, and safety devices
- Installation guidance, commissioning checklist, and operator training
Site acceptance concentrated on actual hook height, runway clearances, wheel loads, smooth acceleration, load positioning, brake holding, limit settings, and safe access for future inspection.
- Periodic runway and wheel alignment checks to protect the existing structure
- Brake, rope guide, wire rope, hook, and limit switch inspections
- VFD fault-history review and electrical cabinet cleaning
- Annual verification of structural connections and lifting-path clearance
