Our Philippines client is from a high-precision plastic products manufacturing company, which heavily invests in technology and equipment and believes in precisely controlled processes. These processes are organizationally thin and lean, which helps the company to keep costs down and produce quality products as demand consistently increases.
Considering the expense of the new facility and its production machinery, the customer knew they needed a system that would be cost-effective, portable, and versatile to meet the demands of their lean manufacturing process. They eventually reached out to us DQCRANES, we recommended a 2 ton gantry crane with adjustable height and span for flexibility and to meet the demands of multiple parts of their production process. The gantry crane is cost-effective and ergonomic, and it can be easily moved under load with one worker.
The company purchased a 2-ton A-Series Gantry Crane, which they use throughout their facility—as needed. The crane’s adjustability allows workers to use it in a variety of workstations, and its manual design coincides with their environmental concerns and clean manufacturing practices.
Workers at the new facility are pleased with the gantry crane’s maneuverability and overall versatility. Lifting and transporting products is easy and effective, and workers are able to perform routine maintenance on the machine without interfering with other parts of their production process. The system has empowered workers to move products and materials safely and effectively, help to increase the productivity.
How To Select The Right Crane For Plastic Manufacturing
- First, the capacity, span and lifting height of the crane are always critical specifications. This ensures that the load can be safely lifted.
- Second, the below-the-hook attachments are also important. Depending on the shape of the product you want to lift, there are different lifting attachments under the hook to help you lift the components safely and effectively.
- Third, you need to consider where to install the crane, whether it is in an outdoor yard or in a facility. According to the installation position of the crane, you can choose overhead bridge crane or gantry crane.
- Finally, working with a reliable lifting equipment manufacturer is a must. Cooperating with overhead crane manufacturers who are already familiar with the special needs of the precast concrete industry is obviously the most effective. In addition, the reliable manufacturer also saves you from worrying about after-sales problems.
