U-leg Gantry Crane
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
If you need to handle large and heavy materials, a U-Type Double Girder Gantry Crane can be a suitable choice. The U-shaped legs provide a large clear space beneath the crane, leaving more room for material handling and for trucks or other transport equipment to pass through. U-type gantry cranes are also commonly designed with a double girder structure, which provides higher load-carrying capacity and greater structural rigidity for heavy-duty lifting applications.
Why choose U-Type Double Girder Gantry Cranes?
1. Large Working Clearance
The U-shaped legs provide a large clear space beneath the crane, allowing more room for lifting, loading and unloading large materials. This is particularly useful in outdoor freight yards, steel storage yards and railway freight yards.
2. Suitable for Heavy Lifting
U-type gantry cranes are commonly designed with a double girder structure. The two main girders provide good load-carrying capacity and structural rigidity, making the crane suitable for handling steel products, heavy equipment and large components.
3. Designed for Large Outdoor Working Areas
The U-type double girder gantry crane can be installed on ground rails to cover a large working area. The span, lifting height and traveling distance can be designed according to the layout of the yard.
4. Customized to Site Conditions
The required crane configuration depends on the lifting capacity, span, lifting height, working frequency, rail layout and other site conditions. The crane can therefore be customized with suitable lifting, traveling, control and protection systems.
APPLICATION SCENARIO
Outdoor Freight Yards
U-Type Double Girder Gantry Cranes are widely suitable for outdoor freight yards where large and heavy materials need to be loaded, unloaded, stacked, and transferred. The large clear space beneath the U-shaped legs allows trucks and other transport equipment to move into the working area, while the crane can cover a wide lifting area along the ground rails. The crane can also be configured with suitable corrosion protection and electrical protection according to the outdoor working conditions.
Steel Storage Yards
In steel storage yards, the crane can be used to handle steel plates, steel pipes, steel sections, steel coils, and other heavy steel products. Its double girder structure provides the load-carrying capacity and structural rigidity required for heavy lifting, while the large working clearance beneath the crane provides sufficient space for trucks and other equipment during loading and unloading. The lifting capacity, span, lifting height, and working class can be customized according to the size and weight of the steel materials.
Railway Freight Yards
U-Type Double Girder Gantry Cranes can also be used in railway freight yards for loading, unloading, and transferring heavy or bulky cargo. The U-shaped legs provide sufficient clearance for railway vehicles and other transport equipment to pass beneath the crane, while the crane can move loads along the rail system across the required working area. The span, lifting height, traveling distance, and lifting capacity can be designed according to the railway layout and specific cargo-handling requirements.
