Double Girder Overhead Crane 10 Ton S5.08m H8m with European Wire Rope Hoist

A crab wire rope hoist is a hoisting mechanism that runs on top of the double girder bridge, with the wire rope drum and motor mounted on a self-contained trolley frame (the "crab"). On this double girder overhead crane with crab wire rope hoist:

• Compact crab design — the hoist, drum, and motor are integrated on a single trolley frame
• Higher hook lift — the crab runs on top of the two girders, so the hook can be raised closer to the bridge, giving more usable lift height
• Higher capacity — crab wire rope hoists are standard for 10t and above on double girder overhead cranes
• Better stability — the crab runs on two rails (1400mm gauge), reducing load swing compared with a single-rail trolley
• Higher duty — crab wire rope hoists handle more cycles per hour than single girder hoists at the same capacity

For a 10t overhead crane in a high-throughput workshop, the crab wire rope hoist is the right choice.

The 10-40 m/min crane travel speed on this double girder overhead crane with crab wire rope hoist is a high-speed configuration designed for fast material handling cycles. Compared with standard overhead cranes:

• Standard single girder overhead crane: 20-30 m/min travel speed
• This crab wire rope hoist overhead crane: 10-40 m/min travel speed — up to 33% faster at maximum
• Why high speed? — shorter handling cycles, higher throughput, and better utilization in high-production workshops
• Trade-off — faster travel requires 2×1.5kW long travel motors (vs standard 2×0.75kW) and more robust braking

If your workshop needs high throughput (many lifts per hour), the 10-40 m/min speed is worth the extra cost. If your lifts are occasional, a standard speed crane is more economical.

Yes — the 5.08m span is specifically designed for narrow indoor workshops. The fit works as follows:

• Crane span: 5.08m (5080 ± 2.5 mm) — center-to-center distance of the two runway rails
• Total crane width: 3.6m (3600 mm) — including the girder and end carriage
• Main girder center distance: 2.8m (2800 mm)
• Trolley rail gauge: 1.4m (1400 mm)

The 5.08m span fits workshops where the runway rail center-to-center is approximately 5.08m. Because the double girder overhead crane with crab wire rope hoist runs on elevated runway rails (not ground rails), the building structure must support the runway beam and wheel load. Confirm with your structural engineer using the 60.6 kN wheel load figure.

Six numbers on this double girder overhead crane with crab wire rope hoist drawing must match your workshop, or the crane will not fit or operate correctly:

If any of these six differ from your workshop, tell Yuantai before ordering — each change affects price and lead time on the double girder overhead crane with crab wire rope hoist.

P30 rail is specified for this double girder overhead crane with crab wire rope hoist because:

• Wheel load: 60.6 kN — the 10t capacity and double girder weight require a heavier rail than P22 or P24
• High travel speed (10-40 m/min) — faster travel creates higher dynamic loads on the rail, requiring a heavier section
• Long service life — P30 rail is standard for 10t+ double girder overhead cranes in continuous workshop use
• Standard availability — P30 is a common rail section, easy to source and replace

Do not substitute a lighter rail (P22 or P24) without recalculating the wheel load and dynamic forces. The 60.6 kN wheel load and 10-40 m/min travel speed both require P30 or heavier.

No — this double girder overhead crane with crab wire rope hoist is configured for indoor workshop use. The crab wire rope hoist overhead crane runs on elevated runway rails supported by the building structure, not on ground rails. Outdoor use would require:

• Different crane type — a gantry crane with ground rails and A-frame legs is more suitable for outdoor use
• Weather protection — outdoor electrical enclosures (IP55+) and anti-corrosion treatment
• Wind load design — anti-wind devices and anchoring for outdoor wind exposure

For outdoor applications, see the MHO 5t-7m A5 Siemens version with anti-wind and anti-toppling design, or the Long Travel Gantry Crane 5 Ton - S20m - H6m - 70m Runway for long outdoor corridors.

To avoid surprises at installation, these items are outside the double girder overhead crane with crab wire rope hoist supply scope unless you specifically add them:

• Runway rail (P30) and rail fasteners
• Runway beam and building column reinforcement
• Building structural support for the 60.6 kN wheel load
• Site power supply up to the crane isolator
• Erection crane and site lifting equipment
• Local electrical connection and permits

Because the crab wire rope hoist overhead crane runs on elevated runway rails, the building structure is critical — the runway beam and columns must support the 60.6 kN wheel load and the dynamic forces from 10-40 m/min travel. Yuantai can provide runway load drawings as an optional item.
