Single beam full & semi gantry crane with I beam & monorail girder design 500kg to 20 ton. Get your i beam gantry crane & monorail gantry crane design!

The monorail gantry crane or i beam gantry crane is an economical type of single beam gantry crane, which is designed with I beam, reinforced steel i beam, combined U shaped box girder and i beam as the crane girder to support the monorail hoist as the lifting system for material handling. The monorail/ I beam single beam gantry crane is widely used for light loads handling due to its simple crane structure and  economical crane cost.

Based on the different applications and lifting requirements, the monorail gantry cranes can be customized customized into full gantry cranes and semi gantry cranes.

Single beam gantry crane with semi gantry, single leg & wall travelling design

The single leg gantry crane is also called as the semi-goliath or semi-gantry cranes. They are a variation of overhead bridge crane, which combines the features  of the full gantry crane and bridge crane with one end of bridge girder supported by freestanding leg running on the floor rail and the other end supported and travelling on wall mounted runway  mounted on columns or a building structure. When they are specifically designed to run underneath overhead bridge cranes in manufacturing facilities, they offer localized hook service to production cells on one side of a bay while the overhead crane provides general hook service to the entire bay. The single leg gantry cranes can be grouped into single beam or double beam design to meet different application conditions.

Single beam semi gantry crane specifications

As for the monorail semi gantry crane, the main specifications are as following:

• Lifting Capacity: 1~20t
• Span: 7.5~20m
• Lifting Height: 6/9/12m (according your needs)
• Voltage: 220-660V 50/60Hz 3Phase
• Working Class: A3, A4
• Ambient Temperature: -25~40℃

BMH Series single beam gantry cranes are equipped with CD1, MD1 electric hoists, ND European style wire rope hoists, and electric chain hoists as the lifting system. It is appropriate for lifting, transporting, loading, and unloading in doors and open-air operations such as stations, wharves, warehouses, construction sites, cement product yards, machinery or structural assembly yards, power plants, and so on. The semi-gantry crane's support legs have a height difference that can be determined based on the civil construction requirements of the use site.

It consists of a lifting mechanism and trolley, a single main beam, a support leg, and an end carriage, as well as an electric control box, an operating system, and a safety protection system, etc.

Benefit of Single beam semi gantry crane

In contrast to full gantry cranes, i beam semi gantries uses the plant's structure rather than a new crane leg. Unquestionably, it is more economical. Semi-gantry cranes have an advantage over overhead bridge cranes in terms of flexibility because they don't completely rely on the plant.

It makes better use of the plant's framework by using one side as a support leg and the other as an end carriage as an overhead crane. When compared to an overhead crane, it frees up the workshop space taken up by columns. This crane solution is very affordable!

• Semi-gantry single beam cranes with all required safety features can be installed underneath existing overhead cranes.
• Semi-gantry cranes are less expensive than full-gantry cranes.
• The semi-gantry crane is one of the useful lifting solutions for many applications, and it can be used both indoors and outdoors.
• All of the parts and components of the semi gantry crane are equipped with high quality.

Application of Single beam semi gantry crane

Single beam semi-gantry cranes are commonly used in steel, forest products, intermodal, biomass/pellet, concrete, and many other industries, and can be used both indoors and outdoors. Semi-gantry cranes are sometimes equipped with truss type outriggers when used outdoors.

There are two commonly used applications:

• Indoors, it is frequently used beneath existing overhead cranes to provide more hooks, increasing factory productivity.
• Outdoors, it is frequently used near the building, maximizing the use of the existing runway structure and thus improving the cost efficiency of your factory or plant.

Single beam gantry cranes with I beam full gantry design

The full gantry single beam crane is made up of double legs on the the both end of the gantry girder, which support the monorail beam girder and hoist for loads handling. A simple monorail gantry crane is used in conjunction with an electric monorail hoist. The can handle loads or objects weighing between 1 and 20 tons. The monorail gantry span can range between 12 and 30 meters. The working temperature of a gantry crane ranges from -20°C to 40°C. The economical monorail gantry crane is a type of material handling crane that is commonly used to load, unload, or grab materials at open ground and warehouses.
