Gantry crane design standards

Most people will choose to go with a gantry crane if they’re going to be running a lot of traffic, forklifts, and carts in and out of an area where they need to utilize their crane. A larger gantry system will allow forklifts in to pick up materials and allow you to bring trucks in and out for loading. That’s probably, the bigger ones that we’ve done have been for that reason.

• Support columns, like you, have with bridge cranes, take up valuable floor space and are also obstructions for workers moving about the facility.
• If you can eliminate those support columns, it makes it much easier for your workers to maneuver around in that area.
• However, with any type of gantry system, you need to consider what equipment or personnel are operating nearby.
• With a gantry that’s moving down the rail or track—or even a portable gantry that’s being maneuvered through different areas of a facility—you want to be aware of any possible obstructions that the crane could possibly collide with.
• Any type of impact could cause damage to electrical panels, end trucks, controls, gearboxes, or any other components mounted to the legs of the crane.
• Manufacturers can get creative in positioning the controls, gearboxes, and panels on the legs to minimize exposure to impact.
