A 5 ton single girder overhead crane is a type of lifting equipment that can be used for various applications in different industries. It consists of a single beam that spans the width of the workshop, warehouse, or factory and a hoist that travels along the beam to lift and move loads. A 5 ton single girder overhead crane can handle loads up to 5 tons and has a span of up to 31.5 meters. It is suitable for light and medium-duty work, such as loading and unloading materials, assembling parts, or transferring goods.
Bolivia Customer Crane Needs|Steel Plant Crane
Our customer is a steel plant in Bolivia that produces steel products for the construction industry. They contacted us in June 2023 and expressed their interest in buying a 5 ton single girder overhead crane for their workshop. They wanted a crane that could help them improve their production efficiency, safety, and quality. They also had some specific requirements for the crane, such as:
The crane should have a low headroom design to save space and reduce the building cost.
The crane should have a variable frequency drive to achieve smooth and precise operation and reduce energy consumption.
The crane should have a wireless Remote Control to allow the operator to control the crane from a safe distance.
The crane should have a load limiter to prevent overloading and protect the crane from damage.
The crane should have an anti-sway device to reduce the swing of the load and ensure stable lifting.
5 Ton Crane&Single Girder Overhead Crane Solution
After understanding the customer’s needs, we recommended our 5 ton single girder overhead crane with electric hoist. This crane model has the following parameters, prices and features:
Lifting capacity: 5 tons
Span: 18 meters
Lifting height: 6 meters
Working class: A3
Single Girder Overhead Crane Features:
Low headroom design: The electric hoist is integrated with the beam, which reduces the height of the whole crane and saves space.
Variable frequency drive: The electric hoist is equipped with a variable frequency motor, which can adjust the speed of the hoist according to the load and operation mode. This improves the accuracy and efficiency of the lifting process and saves energy.
Wireless remote control: The operator can use a wireless remote controller to operate the crane from anywhere within the range of 100 meters. This enhances the safety and convenience of the operation.
Load limiter: The electric hoist has a load limiter device that can detect the weight of the load and stop the hoist when it reaches the rated capacity. This prevents overloading and protects the hoist from damage.
Anti-sway device: The electric hoist has an anti-sway device that can compensate for the inertia force and reduce the swing of the load. This ensures stable lifting and avoids collisions.
Advantages of 5 Ton Single Girder Overhead Crane
Our 5 ton single girder overhead crane has many advantages over other similar cranes on the market, such as:
High quality: Our cranes are made of high-strength steel materials and advanced welding technology, which ensure their durability and reliability. Our cranes are also tested and inspected before delivery to ensure their performance and safety.
Competitive price: Our cranes are sold directly from our factory, which reduces the intermediate cost and saves money for our customers. Our cranes are also designed to be easy to install and maintain, which lowers the operating cost.
Customized service: We can customize our cranes according to our customer’s specific needs, such as different lifting capacities, spans, heights, speeds, colours, etc. We can also provide free technical support and after-sales service for our customers.
Transport and Installation of the Steel Plant Crane
We arranged the transport of our 5 ton single girder overhead crane to Bolivia by sea in July 2023. The crane was packed in wooden cases and covered with plastic film to protect it from moisture and damage. The delivery time was about one month.
We sent our engineers to Bolivia in August 2023 to assist the customer with the installation and testing of the crane. The installation process was simple and fast, as the crane only needed to be connected to the power supply and the rails. The testing process was also smooth and successful, as the crane worked well and met the customer’s expectations.
Overhead Crane Maintenance
We provided our customer with a detailed maintenance manual and some spare parts for the crane. We also trained their staff on how to operate and maintain the crane properly. We advised them to follow some maintenance tips, such as:
Check the crane regularly for any signs of wear, damage, or malfunction.
Lubricate the moving parts of the crane periodically to reduce friction and noise.
Clean the crane regularly to prevent dust and dirt from affecting its performance.
Replace the worn or damaged parts of the crane in time to avoid accidents.
contact us if they encounter any problems or need any help with the crane.
