Main Components

A single-beam bridge crane consists of several structural and mechanical parts that work together to move loads efficiently. Among these, the main beam, end beam, and hoist are core components.

end-beam

The main beam spans across the working area and serves as the primary structural element supporting the hoist and trolley. It is usually constructed from either rolled I-beams or welded box sections, depending on load requirements and design specifications. The material selection and structural profile ensure the beam has adequate stiffness to resist bending and deflection during operation. Proper beam alignment and reinforcement are critical to maintaining load stability and consistent hoist travel.

The end beam is positioned at both ends of the main beam and plays a structural and functional role. It connects the main beam to the traveling mechanism and supports the wheels that engage with the runway rails. This configuration enables the crane to move horizontally along the working area. The end beam is designed to maintain alignment and load balance during travel. It also accommodates the drive motors and gearboxes that power the crane's movement across the span.

the-electric-hoist
the-main-beam
The hoist is the core lifting component installed on the main beam. It consists of a motor, drum, wire rope or chain, and a hook. The hoist travels horizontally along the main beam while lifting or lowering the load vertically. The motor provides the driving force, and the drum or chain mechanism controls the movement of the lifting medium. Its design allows for precise load handling and is selected based on lifting capacity, speed requirements, and the nature of the load.

Customization Options

Yuantai offers customization options to adapt the crane to your job. We will customize each crane for you according to your site space, load, usage environment and other factors.

1. Lifting Capacity

We size cranes to match the loads you lift every day. For our 1–20 ton single girder models, we recommend specifying the heaviest regular load and the heaviest occasional load. We then build in a safety margin so the crane isn't pushed to its limits. This protects equipment and people, and it helps you avoid premature wear.

2. Span and Lifting Height

Designed to fit your facility's dimensions. We can customize the span to align with your building's width and lifting height to accommodate vertical clearance requirements, ensuring the crane operates efficiently without interfering with existing structures or equipment.

3. Control Systems

Choice between pendant, remote, or cabin controls. The handheld control is easy to operate and very suitable for short distance work. Wireless remote control offers more flexible control while providing you with a safer way to do so. If you are using the remote control, you can operate it while watching the load move. The range of remote control is usually within a hundred meters. Cabin control gives a full workspace view and is best for long shifts or precise positioning. All options include emergency stop and safety interlocks.

4. Color and Finish

We offer finishes that protect and promote your brand. Industrial-grade coatings such as powder coat and epoxy primers resist corrosion, moisture, and UV. For coastal sites or chemical exposure, we specify thicker, corrosion-resistant systems. You can also choose your company colors for a professional look.

5. Electrical System

You can choose electrical packages that match your plant's standards. Options include starters, contactors, drives, and protections sized to your power supply. We include overload protection, phase-loss detection, and smooth-start features when needed. All systems are selected for reliability and easy integration with your controls.

6. Dual Hoist Lifting

Dual hoists let you lift long or awkward loads more safely. The hoists can run independently or together for tandem lifts. This improves balance and reduces load swing on long parts. We size and synchronize the hoists, and recommend appropriate rigging and operator training for tandem operations.

7. Weighing System

Optional weight indicator to accurately detect the weight of the lifting load; optional display for easy viewing of the loaded weight. This feature enhances operational safety by helping prevent overloads and supports process control where load tracking is essential.

Safety Configuration

It is equipped with a variety of protection mechanisms such as linkage protection, overload protection, zero protection, and limit protection to ensure the reliable and secure operation of the crane. These features work together to detect anomalies and automatically intervene to prevent accidents or equipment damage.

1. Reel Design

The reel is made of high-strength steel and engineered for precision, ensuring minimal deflection of the wire rope during operation. This design reduces wear and tear, extending the lifespan of both the wire rope and reel system, which contributes to long-term operational safety.

2. Motor Protection System

The motor of the hoisting mechanism is fitted with a dedicated air-cooling system, maintaining optimal operating temperatures even under continuous use. It also includes thermal protection rated to IP54, guarding against dust and water ingress to enhance the durability of the electrical components.

3. Independent Braking System

Equipped with a robust and independent braking system that features automatic wear compensation, the crane ensures consistent braking performance over time. For operations requiring added redundancy, a dual braking system is available upon special request to meet high-risk or heavy-duty safety standards.

4. Advanced PLC Monitoring

The crane integrates an advanced PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) for automatic performance detection, supported by a user-friendly human-machine interface (HMI). This system can measure, calculate, and monitor the equipment's performance, safety status, and operational conditions in real time, offering operators actionable insights to ensure the safe and reliable transportation of goods.

Function

1. Multi-speed Adjustment Function

The crane is equipped with both low-speed and high-speed modes. Operators can switch between speeds depending on the nature of the load and the precision required. Low-speed mode is suitable for delicate positioning, while high-speed mode supports routine transport tasks to improve overall efficiency.

2. Electric Anti-Sway

The electric anti-sway system helps reduce load swing during motion. It does so by actively adjusting the crane's movement based on real-time feedback. This feature supports accurate load placement and reduces the need for manual correction, especially when working with tall or suspended items.

3. Precise Positioning

The crane slows down automatically as the load nears the target point. This reduces momentum and allows operators to position the load more accurately. The feature helps prevent overshooting and limits the risk of misalignment, which is essential for assembly or storage operations that require close tolerances.
