Overview of the Crane Model
The QZ Grab Bucket Overhead Crane Kit without a Main Girder is a specialized crane designed for efficient handling of bulk materials, specifically tailored for waste management or other industries dealing with heavy, irregular loads. This crane features an innovative design with no main girder, which helps maximize space and improve maneuverability in tight or restricted areas. It is capable of handling loads up to 6.3 tons.
Key Specifications – Capacity
Capacity: 6.3 tons. The crane is designed to handle loads of up to 6.3 tons, making it suitable for medium-heavy applications where large volumes of materials need to be moved efficiently, such as handling waste or scrap metal.
Key Specifications – Span
Span: 24 meters. With a 24-meter span, the crane is able to cover a significant area within the workshop or site, making it ideal for large-scale operations where the movement of heavy loads across a wide area is required.
Key Specifications – Lifting Height
Height: 17 meters. The 17-meter lifting height ensures the crane can handle lifting and lowering tasks that involve substantial height, making it suitable for operations that require clearance over tall containers or for reaching higher storage bins.
Design without Main Girder
The no main girder design refers to the crane's structure, which eliminates the need for a traditional girder system. This design offers several advantages.
- Space Optimization: Without the main girder, the crane requires less headroom and takes up less space, making it ideal for workshops or sites with low ceilings.
- Improved Flexibility: The reduced structural components make the crane more adaptable to smaller workspaces, allowing for smoother operation in confined environments.
- Reduced Weight: The absence of the main girder can reduce the overall weight of the crane, leading to a more lightweight and maneuverable system.
Grab Bucket Mechanism
This crane is equipped with a grab bucket, which is designed to efficiently collect and lift bulk materials. The grab bucket allows for precise material handling, especially when dealing with irregularly shaped or loose materials like waste, garbage, and scrap. The bucket can be controlled to open and close, ensuring materials can be lifted and moved without spillage or damage.
Applications
The QZ Grab Bucket Overhead Crane without a main girder is specifically suited for industries that require heavy-duty material handling but have spatial constraints. It is widely used in:
- Garbage Handling: Moving large quantities of waste and garbage efficiently within the facility.
- Scrap Metal Handling: Transporting heavy scrap materials in recycling plants.
- General Bulk Material Handling: Suitable for moving irregularly shaped or large bulk materials.
Advantages of the QZ Model
- Compact Design: The absence of the main girder allows for a more compact crane, ideal for operations in limited spaces.
- Efficient Material Handling: The grab bucket mechanism provides a highly efficient way to handle and move bulk materials.
- Cost-effective: Reduced structural complexity and material requirements can result in lower initial costs and maintenance expenses.
Overall Value and Conclusion
The QZ Grab Bucket Overhead Crane Kit is a versatile, efficient, and space-saving solution for handling bulk materials in industries such as waste management and scrap recycling, providing customers with a reliable tool for heavy-duty material transport.
