Gantry Cranes: Robust and Independent Lifting Solutions
Gantry Crane: A heavy-duty lifting crane featuring high support legs on both sides that hold up the main overhead girder. Its primary application is lifting and moving large or heavy objects in open-air areas (such as ports, container yards, construction sites, and offshore environments) where no building structures or roofs are available for crane installation..
Applications of Gantry Cranes Across Industries
- Used for lifting precast concrete components, bridge girders, large steel structures, or for operations in casting yards.
- Ideal for assembling large machinery components, lifting heavy shipyard steel plates, or handling workpieces weighing from several tons up to hundreds of tons.
Standard Structural Design
- Full Gantry Crane: Features high support legs on both sides and is commonly used outdoors to straddle the entire work area.
- Semi-Gantry Crane: Features a support leg on only one side, while the other side runs on an elevated runway beam attached to the building structure or wall—ideal for facilities with limited space.
