China Machinery Railroad Gantry Crane With High Efficiency

①Main girder: Main girder is welded of steel plates, connected by high strength precision bolt. There are sliding rail for trolley to travel upper the girder which is fixed on outrigger by high-tension precision bolt.

②Outrigger: Consist of rigid outrigger and flexible outrigger, all connection points are connected by high-tension bolt. The ladder is used by operator to enter into cab or arriving at winch when the span>30m, there need a flexible leg aiming at reducing the lateral thrust the trolley has to the rail when the girder load objects.

③Traveling mechanism: Traveling mechanism consist of driving gear box and passive wheel box. The driving gear box supplies power to realize the crane’s traveling. What the difference between driving gear box and passive wheel box is that passive wheel box lacks transmission structure such as dynamo, reducer and a pair of exposed gear.

④Trolley with hoist: Trolley frame welded of steel plate is the loading and traveling mechanism of trolley with hoisting. Winch is the lifting mechanism of trolley. When it works, wire rope affects the pulley as rising and falling movement, which makes suspended objects lifting and lowering Warning: wire ropes need to be examined regularly and changed in time if there is a 10% broken wires, loosen wires and wearing down.

⑤Cab: Glass window through which one can watch overall working condition is installed in the front and two sides of the cab. Electric cabinet as a group of independent cabinet, fixed outside of cab is connected by control cable and linkage station which is set up in the cab.

⑥Electrical system: Lifting motor, crane traveling motor and hydraulic power motor are included. The whole electrical system is controlled by PLC. Two ways to operate the crane: cab operating and remote controlling. Electric components are imported from Schneider in Germany.

Efficiency is crucial for optimizing the use of a rail gantry crane in a railway station. Here are some strategies to maximize efficiency:

■Automated systems: Some modern railroad gantry cranes come equipped with automation and smart controls. These systems can help reduce human error, optimize load handling speed, and increase operational accuracy.

■Strategic planning: Pre-plan the loading and unloading process to minimize crane idle time. This includes coordinating train schedules, truck arrivals, and available storage space.

■Regular training: Continuous training of crane operators ensures that they are up-to-date with the latest operational techniques and safety protocols, improving overall efficiency and safety.
