A rubber tyred gantry crane is a highly mobile lifting solution supported by heavy-duty pneumatic tires, allowing it to travel freely on various flat and semi-prepared surfaces. Unlike rail-mounted gantry cranes, it does not require fixed tracks, which makes it especially suitable for operations that demand frequent relocation and flexible yard layouts. Thanks to its self-propelled design, the crane can move efficiently across construction sites, ports, container yards, and logistics terminals. Depending on the configuration and application, a rubber tyred gantry crane can handle lifting capacities ranging from 10 tons to over 200 tons, making it a versatile and powerful choice for modern material handling operations.
Advantages
Outstanding Mobility and Flexibility: A rubber tyred gantry crane is designed to move freely across the working area without relying on fixed rails. This allows the crane to be quickly repositioned between different work zones, significantly reducing installation time and improving operational efficiency. It is especially suitable for yards and terminals where layouts frequently change.
Excellent Adaptability to Various Terrains: Equipped with heavy-duty pneumatic tires, the rubber tyred gantry crane can operate smoothly on uneven or semi-prepared surfaces such as gravel, concrete, or compacted soil. The tires effectively absorb vibrations and shocks, ensuring stable lifting performance even in challenging outdoor environments.
Lower Infrastructure and Operating Costs: Unlike rail-mounted cranes, rubber tyred gantry cranes do not require permanent track systems or complex civil foundations. This greatly reduces initial infrastructure investment and shortens project lead times, making them a cost-effective solution for many material handling operations.
High Versatility for Multiple Applications: Rubber tyred gantry cranes are suitable for both short-term and long-term use. They perform well in temporary construction projects, equipment installation, container yards, and port logistics. Their flexible operation and wide application range make them a practical choice for businesses seeking adaptable and efficient lifting solutions.
Applications
Civil Construction Industry: In civil and infrastructure projects, the heavy duty gantry crane is widely used for handling long and heavy building materials. It can efficiently lift and transport concrete beams, bridge girders, hollow-core slabs, pipes, wall panels, pillars, as well as granite and marble blocks. Its mobility allows it to operate across large construction sites without fixed rails, supporting flexible material movement during different construction stages.
Industrial Sector: Within industrial environments, heavy duty gantry cranes are ideal for moving heavy and bulky equipment. Typical applications include handling generators, engines, molds, machinery units, pressure vessels, steel structures, steel plates, slabs, billets, and steel coils. The crane’s high lifting capacity and stable travel performance make it suitable for factories, fabrication yards, and steel processing plants.
Logistics and Transportation: In logistics hubs and freight yards, heavy duty gantry cranes are commonly used for lifting and stacking containers of various sizes. Their ability to move freely within container yards improves loading, unloading, and yard management efficiency without the need for permanent rail infrastructure.
Other Industries: Heavy duty gantry cranes also play an important role in renewable energy, waste treatment facilities, and mining operations. They are used to handle large components such as wind power equipment, heavy waste containers, and mining materials, supporting efficient and safe material handling across diverse industries.
