What is meant by goliath crane? Or What is an goliath crane? goliath cranes is one of the most frequently used overhead travelling cranes,with free standing Goliath gantry structure either in full gantry or semi-gantry designs with single girder crane & double girder crane configurations for indoor and outdoor material handling with the wide range of goliath crane specifications from 500 kg to 320 tons, including, 2 ton goliath cranes, 3ton goliath cranes, 5 ton goliath cranes, 10 ton goliath cranes, 15 ton, 20 ton, 30 ton up 320 ton goliath cranes, etc.

What is goliath crane used for? goliath cranes are frequently adopted in the applications where material handling is required but without the cost of a supportive building or steel work. The motorized goliath cranes can be operated indoors and outdoors for various industrial applications in steel mills, steel stock yards, pre-cast segment yards, infrastructural construction sites and other outdoor application.

Main goliath cranes types & varirous goliath crane design

goliath cranes can be grouped into different types in terms of cantilever design of gantry frame , numbers and shapes of gantry girder, and applications, etc.

On girder design of goliath crane

In terms of cantilever design of gantry frame, goliath crane can be grouped into

• Double cantilever gantry crane - most frequently used structure, which can take full use of the endurance capacity of crane structure and application space reasonably.
• Single cantilever goliath crane - Used when the application space is limited.
• goliath crane with no cantilever - the main girder has no cantilever with the hoisting trolley or winch trolley running within the crane span

Single girder goliath crane is usually adopted box shaped gantry girder design with the features of simple structure easy manufacturing and installation, and light self-weight. Compared with double-girder goliath cranes, the overall stiffness of single girder goliath crane is weaker and usually used when the loads Q≤50 ton and the span S≤35m.

Single-gantry goliath cranes have L-shaped leg goliath crane and C-shaped leg goliath crane.The L-shape leg goliath crane is easy to manufacture and install, , good endurance capacity and light self-weighted. However, the space for lifting cargo through the legs is relatively small.The C-shaped legs are made to be inclined or curved so as to have a large lateral space for the cargo to pass through the legs.

Double girder goliath cranes is the most frequently used structure design, with the features of strong bearing capacity, large span, good overall stability, and coming in many varieties, but the self-weight of the double girder goliath crane is larger and their processing cost is higher compared with single-girder goliath cranes .

According to gantry girder design, double girder goliath cranes can be grouped into - box shaped girder design goliath crane and truss girder design goliath crane . At present, box-shaped girder design goliath crane is more frequently used.

Truss goliath crane -The truss gantry girder is welded with angle steel or I-beam, featured as low manufacturing cost, light self-weight, and good wind resistance. However, due to the large amount of welding points and the inborn defects of the trusses structure, the truss gantry girder has the disadvantages of large deflection, low rigidity, low reliability, and frequent welding spots detection. Truss cranes are suitable for application with low requirements on safety and lifting capacity.

MH Truss Type Single Girder goliath crane

Span of truss crane : 12-30m
Lifting height of truss crane : 6-9m or customized
Working class of truss crane: A3-A5
Lifting mechanism of truss crane: CD1,MD1,HC

MG Truss Type Double Girder goliath crane

Lifting capacity of truss crane: 10-100tons
Span of truss crane: 22-40m
Working class of truss crane: A3-A5
Lifting height of truss crane: 6-9m or customized
Lifting mechanism of truss crane: Hoist or trolley or winch

On gantry design of goliath crane

In terms of structures of gantry frame, goliath crane can be grouped into

Full goliath crane- double legged goliath crane, main girder supported on the two legs, which are in the same height.

Semi goliath crane - single leg goliath crane, with the other end of the main girder supported on the building structure.

In terms of gantry girder designs, the semi goliath cranes can be grouped into single girder semi-goliath crane and double girder semi-goliath cranes. With single gantry girder design, the capacity of single girder semi-goliath crane is range from 1 ton to 16 ton, and with double gantry girder design, the capacity of the double girder semi-goliath crane is from 3 ton up 32 ton. The main parameters of the single girder & double girder semi-goliath cranes are shown as following：

BMH Semi Single Girder goliath crane 1t to 16t

BMG Semi Double Girder goliath crane 5t to 32t

On gantry leg design of goliath crane

Based on the different designs of supporting leg, the goliath cranes can be grouped with A frame goliath crane, L frame goliath crane, and U frame goliath crane

A frame cranes usually refers to A frame goliath cranes which is a special variation of regular goliath cranes, with A shape like side profile. With various crane specifications and crane configuration, our A frame goliath cranes can be used for light, medium and heavy duty material handling, which includes the following: 5 ton ~ 50 ton light duty & medium duty single girder A frame goliath crane, 5 ton ~320 ton heavy duty double girder A frame goliath cranes, 0.5 ton ~10 ton light duty Portable A frame goliath crane.

Rubber tyred goliath cranes- A rubber tyred goliath crane (RTG crane) is a mobile goliath crane used in intermodal operations to ground or stack containers. Inbound containers are stored for future pickup by drayage trucks, and outbound are stored for future loading onto vessels. RTGs typically straddle multiple lanes, with one lane reserved for container transfers.
