Gantry crane
MH Type Single Girder Gantry Crane
Product Overview
The MH Type Single Girder Gantry Crane is a lighter, more economical gantry solution designed for general-purpose material handling in workshops, warehouses, and outdoor storage areas where full double-girder capacity is not required. It pairs a single box-type or I-beam main girder with a standard electric hoist running underneath.
Structure Composition
- Main Girder: A single box-type or rolled I-beam girder spans between the two legs.
- Legs: Two supporting legs (fixed or adjustable height) connect the main girder to the end trucks.
- Electric Hoist: A CD1, MD1, or European-style wire rope electric hoist runs on the bottom flange of the main girder, serving as the lifting mechanism.
- End Trucks: Carry the crane along ground-mounted or embedded rails.
- Control: Pendant control is standard; remote control is optional.
Application
- Small to mid-size workshops and machine shops
- Warehouses and general storage
- Loading docks and light outdoor yards
- Maintenance bays and assembly areas
Key Features
- Lightweight structure reduces both purchase cost and rail/foundation loading
- Simple installation, minimal civil works compared to overhead bridge cranes
- Compact headroom requirement, well suited to lower buildings or open yards with no structural steel to mount an overhead crane runway
- Available in fixed-leg or adjustable-height leg configurations to suit uneven ground
