Manufacturing cranes all have their own advantages and disadvantages. For instance, gantry cranes have a small footprint but require reliance on the building of the factory. The gantry crane does not rely on the factory building, but the installation process takes a long time.Â
Although the cantilever crane has a low cost, its carrying capacity is very limited. The key is to determine which type of crane your industry actually needs, and that type will be the best choice.
We recommend that you follow the three-level maintenance system of “daily inspection, monthly inspection, and annual inspection”, with a particular focus on the conditions of the steel wire rope, brake, reducer, and electrical system.Â
DINGYA offers both original factory maintenance services and remote diagnostic support, which includes real-time alerts through an intelligent system. Your production line will operate without any unexpected downtime and will stop crane failures from happening.
DINGYA is a crane manufacturer that has received ISO international quality management system certification. We also comply with the CE European safety standards and the FEM European material handling specifications.
By purchasing our cranes, you are purchasing multiple guarantees. You don’t need to worry about quality issues and after-sales problems.
Forklifts operate with flexible movement capabilities, which enable their use in storage areas and short-distance transportation tasks. Cranes enable vertical lifting operations needed to handle heavy loads within fixed production facilities.Â
Cranes do not occupy the ground passage and have stronger compatibility with automated production lines, with lower long-term comprehensive operating costs. Cranes work better than any other equipment when your situation requires moving heavy workpieces, performing frequent lifts, and needing to upgrade without human operation.
What is the Working Principle of a Manufacturing Crane?
Power Drive
The crane’s motor functions as the primary power source, which drives all operational components of the crane system. Our system operates with advanced motors that utilize variable frequency drive technology for speed control. It achieves smooth operations during both startup and shutdown because it avoids abrupt stops and sudden start movements.
Three-dimensional Cooperation Motion
After being powered on, it enables three-dimensional movement, which allows it to operate in three different directions. The crane can exactly deliver your workpiece to any factory location. Ensure that your materials can be transported smoothly and quickly within the factory premises.
Precise Positioning Control
How to transport to the location you specify is the third step of the crane operation. The crane system achieves millimeter-level positioning accuracy through its combination of high-precision sensors and anti-shaking algorithms.
Intelligent Control and Data Acquisition
The background system tracks operational equipment through load data, operating status information, and fault reports. The system will create an alert when any unusual activity occurs. Your management team can view the equipment status at any time through a computer or mobile phone.
How to Select the Appropriate Crane for a Factory?Â
Taking into Account the Conditions of the Factory Building
The structural elements of factory buildings, which include their beams and columns, need to support bridge cranes. The factory building requires gantry cranes as an alternative solution when its existing structure is outdated, and its steel components lack sufficient strength.Â
The factory building selection process requires you to first comprehend its span and height dimensions, together with its structural load-bearing capacity.
Determine the Weight of the Goods
The chosen tonnage needs to meet operational requirements because it will either fall short of needs or exceed budget expenses when selected at its maximum capacity. We suggest that you not only consider the average load capacity but also use the maximum weight of actual workpieces as your benchmark, together with a 10%-20% safety margin.
Evaluate the Frequency of Usage
The frequency of use directly determines the selection of the crane’s working level. The production line requires a working level above A6 when operating two shifts with high frequency.Â
The equipment will fail because of overload when operating at the A6 level. The equipment requires A3 to A5; when used occasionally, there is no need to spend money on unnecessary features.
Examine the Degree of Automation of the Production Line
You should select a crane with intelligent control and system integration capabilities to meet your needs for your upcoming automated production line and MES system connection project.
Consider the Working Environment
Equipment with ordinary configurations will face operational challenges when high temperatures, dust, corrosive gases, and humidity conditions occur. We will conduct targeted protective designs based on your actual environment. The selection process requires this information to be communicated in clear terms.
Calculate the Total Cost
Many customers only compare the purchase price, but actual long-term expenses depend on three main factors, which include maintenance costs, energy consumption, and downtime losses from equipment failures.Â
A crane with solid quality and reliable after-sales service often saves much more money over a period of three to five years compared to cheaper models.
