Yuantai Crane supplies gantry cranes for workshops, warehouses, manufacturing plants, outdoor yards and heavy-duty lifting projects. Available configurations include single girder, double girder, portable, semi-gantry and container handling cranes, with capacities ranging from light-duty applications to heavy lifts of up to 500 tons. The right gantry crane depends on more than lifting capacity. Span, lifting height, operating frequency, travel method, power supply and site conditions all affect the design and price.
Whether you need a compact mobile gantry for workshop maintenance or a heavy-duty crane for an industrial yard, our team can review your requirements and help identify a suitable configuration.

Gantry Crane Types and Configurations
Yuantai Crane offers different gantry crane configurations for a range of lifting capacities, working conditions and site layouts. Choose a type based on how the crane will travel, the required lifting performance and the available installation space.
| Mobile and Adjustable-Height Gantry Cranes | Custom Semi Gantry Crane |

Mobile and adjustable-height gantry cranes are designed for lifting tasks that require flexible positioning or different working heights. With wheeled frames and adjustable structures on selected models, they suit workshops, warehouses, maintenance areas, and temporary workstations. They are a practical option when a fixed crane runway is unavailable or lifting locations change between jobs. |
A semi gantry crane has one side running on an elevated runway and the other supported by a leg travelling along a ground-level rail. This arrangement suits workshops and warehouses where a full gantry structure may not be necessary. It can also work alongside an overhead crane system, helping make use of available floor space and building structure. |
| Single Girder Gantry Crane | Double Girder Gantry Crane |

A single girder gantry crane uses one main beam with a hoist and trolley to lift and move loads across the working span. It suits general material handling in workshops, warehouses, assembly areas, and outdoor yards. This configuration is worth considering when a simpler crane structure can meet the required lifting capacity, span, and operating conditions. |
A double girder gantry crane uses two main beams to support the lifting trolley or crab. It is suitable for heavier loads and demanding material-handling tasks in industrial facilities, manufacturing plants, and outdoor yards. This configuration is worth considering when the required lifting capacity, span, or operating duty calls for a more substantial crane structure. |
| Rail-mounted Gantry Crane | Rubber-tyred Gantry Crane |
 Ask for Price |
 Ask for Price |
A rail-mounted gantry crane (RMG) travels along fixed ground rails and is commonly used for container handling in ports, intermodal terminals, and rail freight yards. Its defined travel path suits operations that require repeated movement between designated loading and storage positions. The crane layout can be planned around container lanes, stacking areas, and the site's handling requirements. |
A rubber-tyred gantry crane (RTG) moves on rubber tires rather than fixed ground rails, allowing it to travel between designated areas of a container yard. It is commonly used for container stacking and transfer in ports, logistics hubs, and intermodal terminals. Its wheeled design offers greater route flexibility when planning yard movement and container-handling operations. |
Single Girder vs. Double Girder Gantry Cranes
Single-girder and double-girder gantry cranes differ in their main girder structures, hoisting mechanisms, and suitable applications. The choice of type depends on your load, span, required hook height, duty class requirements, and project budget.
| Selection Factor | Single Girder Gantry Crane | Double Girder Gantry Crane |
|---|---|---|
| Main structure | One main girder | Two main girders |
| Typical lifting arrangement | Often uses an electric hoist | Often uses a trolley or crab-type hoisting mechanism |
| Project considerations | General lifting requirements, structural design and budget | Higher load demands, lifting arrangement, span and operating requirements |
| Span and hook height | Must be checked against the selected design | Must be checked against the selected design |
| Cost comparison | May have a lower structural cost in comparable applications | May involve higher structural and equipment costs |
| Suitable applications | Workshops, warehouses and general material handling | Heavy manufacturing, steel handling and other demanding lifting applications |
When Should You Choose a Single Girder Gantry Crane?
Consider a single girder crane when its rated capacity, span, hook height and duty rating meet your requirements. It may be a practical choice for general lifting in workshops, warehouses and fabrication areas.
When Should You Choose a Double Girder Gantry Crane?
Consider a double girder crane when the project requires a particular lifting arrangement, greater capacity, a larger span or more demanding operating conditions. The final choice should be based on engineering calculations and the actual working requirements, rather than capacity alone.
Not sure which structure is suitable? Send us your lifting capacity, span, hook height, operating frequency and working environment. We can review the requirements and compare suitable configurations.
