Key Applications of Overhead Cranes: Essential Solutions for Industrial Material Handling
As the "aerial handling expert" of modern industry, overhead cranes deliver irreplaceable value across sectors. [Jiangyin Dingli High Tech Cranes Co.，Ltd.],, explains their core applications and technical strengths.
1. Structural Advantages & Key Specifications
Wide span coverage: 5-40m standard span, double-girder designs handle 1-500 tons
Precision positioning: VFD drives achieve ±1mm repeatability with 1-20m/min stepless speed
Environmental resilience: IP55-rated models operate reliably in dusty/humid workshops
2. 6 Prime Application Scenarios
1. Automotive Manufacturing
Welding lines: 5-20t cranes with magnetic lifters transfer 120 sheet metal parts/hour
Assembly lines: 2-10t cranes with anti-sway systems ensure <0.5mm assembly accuracy
Case Study: Increased output by 35% and reduced workplace injuries by 60% for a German automaker
2. Steel & Metallurgy Plants
Ladle handling: 80-300t foundry cranes with 800℃ heat-resistant design
Rolling mills: 32t electromagnetic cranes handle 50t finished steel/hour
3. Smart Warehousing
High-density storage: 5-10t cranes with AS/RS increase storage density by 300%
Autonomous operation: RFID and AI path planning enable 24/7 automated handling
