    The Workable Components and Benefits of an Overhead Traveling Crane

    in General Discussions

    Overhead Traveling Crane Overview:

    • An overhead traveling crane, also known as a bridge crane, is commonly used for industrial load lifting.

    • They are fully electrically operated by a control pendant, radio/IR remote or from a cabin attached to the crane itself.

    • The basic types of overhead traveling cranes can include top running cranes, under running cranes, single girder bridge cranes and double girder bridge cranes.

    • Overhead traveling cranes are generally engineered in four common configurations. You will find on overhead cranes that they have a highly detailed control system, which is specific to performing day to day tasks with the overhead crane.

    • The controls on an overhead traveling crane are the crane pendant, radio remote control, power supply, enclosures.

    Why install a travelling bridge crane?

    Efficiency

    • Overhead cranes are more efficient than using a group of workers or tow motors to lift and move material and can work up to 2-3 times faster.
