Overhead Bridge Crane Specification Design

Applications Of 3 Ton Overhead Crane

  • General purpose overhead crane: the crane is designed for general lifting purposes in workshops, warehouses, material yards and production facilities.
  • Steel mill or foundry crane: it is specifically designed to lift and move hot molten metal in steel mills and foundries. Due to high heat environment, the crane and the electrical equipment are required to be insulated for safety.
  • Explosion proof crane: it is ideal for handling heavy loads in explosive or flammable atmosphere. An explosion-proof electric hoist is used to lift and lower the load. Stainless steel wheels or nylon wheels are designed to avoid friction during lifting operation.
  • Bulk handling crane: it is designed to handle bulk cargoes such as coal, mineral ore, sand, soil and other industrial bulk materials using an integral grab.

3 Ton Overhead Crane Example

In a small and medium-sized automobile parts manufacturing workshop, a 3-ton overhead crane plays an indispensable role. The workshop mainly produces automobile engine parts, such as crankshafts, connecting rods, etc. The production process involves multiple processes and material handling links.

The bridge crane is installed on the top of the workshop, and its span is customized according to the width of the workshop to ensure that it can cover the entire production area. The crane has a rated lifting capacity of 3 tons, which can meet most material handling needs in the workshop.

Crane in Automobile Industry

During the production process, overhead cranes mainly undertake the following tasks:

  • Raw material handling: Transport raw materials such as iron blocks and aluminum materials from the warehouse to the starting station of the production line to ensure continuous supply of materials to the production line.
  • Semi-finished product transfer: Between each station of the production line, the crane transfers the semi-finished product that has undergone preliminary processing to the next process to realize flow operations.
  • Stacking of finished products: Finished products that have completed all processes will be transported by crane to the designated area for stacking, waiting for subsequent quality inspection and packaging.
  • Equipment maintenance support: When production equipment needs to be repaired or replaced, cranes are used to lift and move equipment parts, simplifying repair work.

In addition, the wireless remote control function of the bridge crane allows operators to move flexibly within the workshop and adjust the position and height of the crane according to production needs at any time. This flexibility not only improves production efficiency, but also reduces the labor intensity of manual handling.

Through the application of bridge cranes, the auto parts manufacturing workshop has realized the automation and efficiency of material handling, improving production efficiency and product quality. At the same time, the crane's safety devices also ensure safety and reliability during the production process.
