Double girder overhead cranes use two parallel beams, with the hoist running on top of the crane. This provides increased stability and lifting capability for more demanding applications. Double girder cranes are typically used in large-scale industrial environments where high capacities and continuous use are required such as heavy manufacturing and steelworks . A double girder crane is ideal for operations involving heavy loads, large spans, or where maximum lifting height is required. It provides a solution for more intensive and demanding lifting tasks.
Double Girder Crane Key Features
Double girder cranes have a much higher lifting capacity than a single girder crane.
Due to the design, double girder cranes have a greater hook height than a single girder, which is beneficial to businesses who need to maximise vertical space in their workplace.
Double girder cranes are designed for repeat heavy duty work in industries such as steelwork.
The double girder design offers significantly improved stability and improved accuracy, ensuring precision with heavy loads.
Long-term reliability is another key feature of a double girder crane. Even though the initial investment will be higher, the long-term costs will be lower due. This is because of the robust construction which leads to less wear on components and longer lifespan of the crane.
