Process cranes for automotive press workshops

In automotive press workshops, the pressing molds are required to be transported, overturned or replaced. Generally, the mould handling cranes includes the single girder overhead crane and double girder overhead crane with standard crane designs or process crane designs to meet individual lifting requirements. Double hook hoist cranes are most widely selected when mold overturning is required during maintenance.

As one of the best crane manufactuer and supplier in China, we offer crane sevices for turnkey crane projects ie.overhead, gantry & jib cranes and other travelling cranes from crane degin, manufactuering & installation, and crane parts supplying, etc.

Single Girder Overhead Cranes with lifting capacity from 1 ton to 20 ton are widely adopted to improve your working efficiency and help to make the best use of your space and save your investment on plant construction due to the features of light weight and small wheel pressure, easy installation and operation, etc. Single girder overhead cranes with process crane designs are available to meet your particular automobile industrial application.

Heavy duty double girder overhead cranes with configurations of hoist trolley crane or open winch cranes are frequently used in stamping workshops and press working of the automobile factory and plants for handling loads with weight above 32 ton. Process cranes for your specific industrial applications in press plants operated by the automotive industry.The process overhead travelling crane system can ensure that the required tools are stored and supplied to the press lines timely and safely.

Double girder overhead crane with duel hoists are most widely selected when mold overturning is required during die maintenance. When the molds are required to be turned over, double hoist cranes enable the wire rope be turned at certain angle， which is defined by the wire rope length and space between two hooks.
