Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

FAQ

Q:What is the maximum crane capacity you can support?

Question:What is the maximum crane capacity supported?

We can design workshops with overhead crane systems ranging from 5T to 50T. Columns and crane beams are reinforced based on the crane load and working level.

We can design workshop bridge crane systems ranging from 5 to 50 tons. Columns and crane beams are reinforced based on the crane's load capacity and working class.

Q:How is workshop ventilation ensured?

Question:How to ensure workshop ventilation?

We provide natural ventilation (roof ventilators, side windows) and mechanical ventilation (exhaust fans, air ducts) solutions tailored to your production needs and local climate.

Q:What steel grade is used for crane beams?

Question:What steel grade is used for crane beams?

For crane beams, we use Q345B high-strength steel with 30-40% higher yield strength than Q235B. This ensures safe operation under heavy loads.

Cranes beams use Q345B high-strength steel, which has a yield strength 30-40% higher than Q235B. This ensures safe operation under heavy loads.

Q:Do you offer crane rail installation?

Question:Do you provide crane rail installation?

Yes, we supply and install crane rails with precise alignment (tolerance < 3mm), along with rail clips, end stops, and grounding systems.

Yes, we supply and install crane rails with precise alignment (tolerance <3mm). We also install rail clips, end stops, and grounding systems.

Q:How do you test the crane system?

Question:How to test the crane system?

We perform load testing at 125% of rated capacity. This includes static load testing (holding the load for 10 minutes) and dynamic load testing (lifting, lowering, and traveling).

We conduct a load test at 125% of rated capacity, including static load testing (holding for 10 minutes) and dynamic load testing (lifting, lowering, and traveling).

Q:What is the warranty for the crane system?

Question:What is the warranty period for the crane system?

We provide 1-year warranty for crane beams and rails. The overhead crane itself has 1-year warranty from the manufacturer. We offer lifetime technical support.
