After knowing the specific needs of the customer, we immediately got in touch with him. After that, we sent him the best solution and quotation. Through the understanding of the customer, we knew that the customer is a middleman. And he was also looking for the product for his own customer, that is, the end user.
Then I started to follow up every day. Send him the payment bank documents of other customers and their feedback on the same product. However, no reply has been received from the customer.
Then I got in touch with the customer on Facebook, until June 22, 2022. In June, the client replied to my email again that the project has restarted. His client is ready to buy, but we need to update the quotation and detailed drawings. Then we immediately updated the quotation and drawings according to the end user’s needs.
After a month of communication, the customer confirmed whether we could go to the Philippines to help the customer with testing and installation. We said yes. Then the customer asked us to add this part of the quotation to the total quotation, and we did so. After all issues were resolved, the client told me that they needed to put us on their supplier list. Then sent me a link to complete their company supplier registration online. Due to the large number of documents required, it took me two consecutive days to complete the registration.
After completing the registration, the customer asked if we could give them some discounts. Finally, we gave the customer some discounts, and then the customer confirmed the order and paid us an advance payment.
When it comes to the construction industry, the importance aluminum gantries and gantry cranes cannot be overstated. Oftentimes referred to as a bridge or overhead crane, this large piece of equipment is used to lift extremely heavy materials or objects. These are fitted with one or more rails and a trolley that enable the equipment to move vertically and is a key component in the construction of larger buildings such as factories, industrial warehouses, and manufacturing plants. They can also be utilized to lift heavy cargo in ship harbors and at train stations.
There are different varieties of devices available in both the standard gantry crane and the aluminum gantry crane model to be aware of depending on your specific needs. Thus, you will need to know more about it before picking the right category. Here are 4 of the more common varieties:
Aluminum gantry crane this model is ideal for small jobs and is generally used on smaller scale construction and manufacturing projects. Aluminum gantries are popular because of their portability. They can be disassembled quickly, loaded up, and then transported to a different location where it can be re-assembled and put into use again. Consequently, the advantage of quick assembly and disassembly results in another advantage namely easy and effective storage. Additionally, it is very cost-effective and very lightweight compared to other models that are constructed from heavier materials.
Overhead gantry crane this heavy-duty crane possesses certain qualities that the traveling cranes do not. Resting on its overhead wheels, the device is typically used in more advanced construction work. By placing it perpendicularly, it can be used more effectively and move in vertical fashion in order to reach just about every area in a construction site. The overhead gantry crane is ideal for those projects that require the lifting of heavy materials and other objects.
Portal gantry crane as the most basic of all models, the device is based on wheels and straight pillars. The portal crane is more commonly known as the gantry. However, some models are manufactured with a fixed mechanism such as those that are used to lift heavy rail cargo. The portal model is used for those construction maneuvers and operations that are more complicated.
Workstation gantry crane as its name implies, the device is used for lifting and moving cargo and materials in smaller areas such as in a factory or machine shop as well as within the confines of a construction site. Some devices have an enclosed track while others feature a running surface that is equipped with an I-beam. The majority of the workstation gantry cranes in use today are intended to be mobile when they are being unloaded and stationary as they are being loaded.
Before choosing a gantry crane for your construction site or other project, it is important to determine the particular model that will best address your specific needs.
An RTG or “rubber-tired gantry” crane is typically used in an intermodal application, but the key difference between this type of crane and others is its mobile capabilities. In other words, an RTG crane wasn’t designed for stationery use. Project managers who are in the market for this type of crane should research the product as thoroughly as possible and learn as much as you can in order to make a well-informed decision. Here are a few things to be aware of:
Different Hoisting Heights – Different types of RTG cranes will typically have differing hoisting heights just like the way their spans will differ. While the hoisting ability on some is limited, others can hoist loads and materials much higher. The lowest hoisting height is usually one container. However, RTG cranes with a hoisting height of up to 6 containers are not uncommon. Cranes with that much hoisting height will most likely be equipped with anti-sway technology.
Different Span Sizes – There are different types of RTG cranes available on the market. Consequently, no two cranes are the same. Certain models have wider spans than others. For example, the smallest will span 5 containers while the largest will usually span 8. Therefore, the amount of span needed to accommodate your application is a key factor to consider when purchasing an RTG crane. As a general rule of thumb, the wider the span, the higher the price.
Powered by Generators – In most cases, some type of generator is an RTG crane’s power source. Since the crane is mobile, the electric grid cannot be its power source. Furthermore, they are equipped with resistor packs because they have no way of dumping the electricity that is produced. As a result, the power will dissipate whenever you are lowering or raising its load.
Smoother Operations, Fewer Accidents – Although you might think that an RTG crane is clunky when operating, they are renowned for their ability to operate smoothly when moving. These cranes are required to finish precision tasks. Consequently, they move with total precision. Most importantly, their smooth operation drastically reduces the risk of accidents and other types of incidents from occurring. For this reason, RTG cranes are becoming increasingly more popular.
Recently, we have received feedback from customers on how to prevent the wear and tear of the gantry crane. After receiving the customer’s inquiry, our engineers immediately confirmed to the customer what part was damaged, and after communication and the on-site pictures sent by the customer, we gave suggestions. As a large lifting equipment, how to prevent gantry crane hazards?
When it comes to preventing aluminum and portable gantry hazards, the key often comes down to a simple case of pro-action versus reaction. In any industry, hazards are constantly present. But if all operators and workers are aware of appropriate safety standards and what to look for in order to be prepared, many of these potential hazards can be avoided.
Inspections
Rule number one to precautionary prevention is the inspection. Simple recognition of a potential hazard significantly reduces the chances of one happening. Your aluminum, gantry crane should always be inspected prior to each and every use for damaged, worn, or missing parts.
Lifting
Before lifting any load, make sure the capacity rating is showing clearly on each side of the I-beam. Never overload your crane. Your gantry legs should always be positioned at least 50% of the beam length and should remain stable throughout the entire lift. Before lifting, the I-beam/hoist and trolley should always be centered over the load and the load should be double checked that it is not attached in any way to the floor or other obstacles.
When you are in the process of lifting, never get hurried or rushed. Make sure your load doesn’t swing or come into contact with any other part of the crane structure. Use common sense! Never lift people or lift any loads over a person. And never sling any load over the I-beam.
Moving
Before moving your aluminum gantry, make sure your path and the surrounding area is free of all debris and obstacles. Move the crane by simultaneously pushing both legs, never the load. Make sure all wheels are rolling freely. Your aluminum gantry should never be moved with any vehicle or over uneven terrain unless specifically designed to do so.
When moving, your load should always be kept as low to the ground as possible and kept in the center of the I-beam for balance. Make sure never to position the trolley or hoist outside the gantry legs.
Load Suspension
Never do any work underneath a suspended load or leave any load suspended unattended. Make sure all other people are a safe distance away while you have a load in suspension.
Electrical Hazards
About 50% of all accidents are caused by machinery coming into contact with an electrical source. It’s important to remember that your crane will conduct electricity. Never use your crane where any power lines or open circuits are in the area.
Have a Lockout Procedure
With the implementation of a lockout, you will be able to safeguard workers in the surrounding area. This way, all machinery is preventatively shut off until hazards or repairs are addressed.
Safety should always be the number one priority on any job site. Taking care to make sure that all employees are properly trained to operate gantry cranes and to be constantly aware of potential hazards can prevent them from happening in the first place. Effective safety planning should be done before, during, and after any job in order to prevent hazards from happening.
Today we send 2 sets of single girder overhead bridge crane to Philippines.
After many times of communication with the customer, the customer’s plan was finally determined, and the drawings of the single-girder bridge machine are as follows,
Why did the Philippine customer finally choose the single-girder bridge crane instead of the double-girder bridge crane? What are the advantages of single girder cranes?
Advantages and Disadvantages of Single Overhead Bridge Cranes
overhead cranes that operate with a minimum of two overhead runways built into a building’s support structure are more commonly referred to as “bridge” cranes. The bridge serves two purposes – first, it’s a load-bearing beam running the entire width of the work area and second, it’s the structure connecting the runways on which the hoist moves. The configuration is based on the number of beams it’s comprised of. For example, one beam is known as a single girder configuration while two would be a double girder configuration.
Design Selection Factors
One of the primary factors that influence the complexity and cost of an overhead lifting system is its design. So it’s important to select a configuration that best addresses your specific application. The bridge on a single girder crane is comprised of one beam that is supported by two end trucks (one on each side). While the bridge can have a top or under-running configuration, the hoist and trolley are normally underhung. If a light or medium duty crane best addresses your application and you have limited headroom to work with, a single girder crane is the ideal choice. Thus, selecting the gantry based on your specific requirement is important.
Furthermore, they’re more cost-effective than the double girder counterpart because they require fewer manufacturing materials and are typically lighter. However, there is a downside with those cost savings, namely they are limited where capacity, hook height, and span are concerned. Additionally, certain special features such as operator cabs and walkways are more difficult to incorporate into a single girder crane design and are more costly as a result. For applications requiring a 15-ton+ capacity, a span of 65+ feet, or other special features, the double girder crane is a better choice.
Advantages and Disadvantages
Whenever you are considering a Single Girder Overhead Crane for your facility, you’ll want to take the following advantages and disadvantages into consideration.
Advantages: • Easier installation, maintenance, and service
• Ideal for buildings with limited headroom
• Lower overall weight
• Lower production costs
• One of the more cost-effective options for light and medium duty applications
Disadvantages: • Decreased hook height compared to double girder overhead lifting systems
• Lower rated lifting capacity (less than 15 tons)
• Operator cabs, walkways, and other special features are difficult to incorporate
• Trolley wheels are mounted on the bottom flange of the girder thereby causing more wear to it
Just like other pieces of equipment, it is important to research all of your options. With the size of investment that’s required, you have to make a well-informed decision.
While the economy continues recovering at its current pace, companies are hesitant about making sizeable investments, especially where material handling is concerned. Large permanent gantry cranes used for lifting solutions can be very expensive and defeat the purpose of solving their needs in a cost-effective fashion. A portable aluminum gantry crane is a great alternative to the more permanent systems because of their lifting capacity and their mobility.
There are several advantages to purchasing aluminum gantry cranes compared to those that are manufactured from steel. First and foremost, they are mobile. These devices can be disassembled, transported to another location, and then re-assembled where it is needed for the next project. Secondly, these devices can be customized and tailored to the needs of the job or project at hand. This makes them extremely versatile as well. Contrary to popular belief, they are very durable and stable despite their lightweight aluminum construction and design.
Because of their durability, mobility, and versatility, an aluminum gantry crane is ideal for a number of applications including construction sites. Projects such as these oftentimes require using a device that is more portable and can be carried up stairways, placed on a roof, and utilized in other challenging situations.
A portable aluminum gantry crane can lift up to 6,000 pounds plus their height is adjustable and for safety reasons, it can easily be locked in place to prevent it from moving unexpectedly. This can be extremely practical when you are dealing with structures that have a number of obstacles such as an uneven floor or where a specific lifting operation is required. They are also equipped with span adjustability so that coverage can be increased as necessary or for transporting them through narrow areas. This ensures a higher scope of work in areas where traditional cranes cannot go.
However, despite their durability and heavy lifting capacity, the key features that makes them such a good choice for a wide range of projects is their lightweight aluminum construction, their mobility, and most importantly, their cost-effectiveness. Compared to the standard all steel models, aluminum gantries weigh about half as much. So when they are disassembled, a one person can usually load them up in a vehicle and unload them without assistance (depending on the specific model).
For all intents and purposes, these features make them the ideal choice for a broad range of contractors. Furthermore, the aluminum construction means they are corrosion-resistant so they can easily be used in clean rooms, refrigerated areas, and a number of different controlled, climate sensitive environments. With its abundance of key features, as well as its accessories and other options, the aluminum gantry is a great choice for a wide range of projects.
A gantry crane is a type of crane used to lift and lower a load from a bridge supported by legs. The main beam that straddles the workspace and load is the gantry or I-beam. This beam holds the hoist and trolley frame. Similar to an overhead crane, a gantry is typically one that is mobile and can be moved on a series of wheels or rails.
Gantry cranes are extremely versatile but there are some variables you need to consider when purchasing one. The type of gantry you purchase depends upon what the application will be. When you are looking to purchase an aluminum gantry crane, you will need to consider a few things:
What will you be using your crane for?
How heavy are the loads you will be lifting?
Will you be moving those loads?
How large is your work area?
Will you need multiple setups?
Function
What will you be using your gantry crane for? Will it be used on a daily basis? How heavy do you anticipate that your loads will be?
Height
One of the first considerations you have is the overall height you will need. An adjustable gantry crane affords flexibility with a range of heights. The height of the I-beam needs to be considered in accordance with the area you will be working in.
Obstructions will have an effect on your height limitations. Ceilings, sprinkler systems, support beams or any other obstruction should be carefully considered in order for the gantry to be moved or erected as needed within those constraints.
Span
The span of the crane is the total width of the unit and, again, must be considered in accordance with the space you will be in.
I-Beam Flange Width
This is the width of your I-beam. Important to consider is that the wider the I-beam, the higher the load capacity. It is also important to make sure that all your accessories are compatible with this.
Mobility
Portable aluminum gantries are often considered when your load needs to be moved from one area to another. Portability is more versatile but some heavier loads may require a fixed crane for loads that will remain stationary.
Load Capacity
Your crane’s load capacity is the maximum weight that the crane will be able to move safely.
Material
Two options are available when it comes to gantries: aluminum and steel. Aluminum cranes are lighter and have lower weight capacities. They are more versatile, portable, and cost-efficient. Steel gantries are heavier, typically have higher weight capacities, and will be more expensive. Each crane will have different specifications so it’s important that these be checked out for each model considered. If your crane will be coming into contact with corrosive materials, aluminum has a higher resistance than steel.
Ease of Use
Depending on your needs, you will want to consider how easy your crane will be to use. Will you want to move it around or assemble and disassemble it in order to store it?
Cranes are used throughout industry for a myriad of functions. From huge downtown projects to intricate movement within confined areas, cranes have served us over the years to move large and heavy objects in safe and efficient ways. The portable aluminum gantry is the most versatile of these cranes.
Versatility
Aluminum gantry cranes are the most innovative in the industry. The portable aluminum gantry has a versatility unlike any other type of crane. Smaller aluminum gantries can even be assembled or broken down by one person.
Because of the adjustable height, these gantries can be used for multiple tasks and are easily adaptable. With 5 position height adjustments, adjustable or fixed leg widths, and extended or removable telescoping break-down legs, these gantries are highly flexible for any situation. This means that your aluminum gantry crane will not only be useful for one task but can instead be adaptable to multiple situations.
Ease of Assembly
The aluminum gantry crane requires only four steps to completely assemble and disassemble. Its ability to fold and its light weight makes it highly transportable and allows it to be taken in areas where other cranes would not be able to be transported to or fit. When not in use, it can easily be disassembled and stored compactly.
Strength
Despite their lighter weight, aluminum gantries can lift extremely heavy weights. Our aluminum gantries have a safe lifting, lowering, and suspending capability from 500 pounds to 4 tons. Considering that most larger permanent cranes used in industry are expensive and not always portable, our portable aluminum gantries are a useful alternative for many applications.
