ME shipbuilding gantry crane, a type of gantry crane of heavy lifting load, large span and high lifting altitude. 

Main technical characteristics: 

It have multiple functions of single hanging, hoisting, turnover in the air, sliht horizontal turnover in the air and so on; 

All operating mechanisms employ frequency control; 

On the top of the girder at the side of rigid leg is equipped a jib crane to accomplish maintenance of upper and lower crabs To prevent storm attack, such safe and reliable anti-wind devices as rail clamp and ground anchor are furnished.

Features:

1. It have multipe functions of single hanging, hoisting, turnover in the air, slight horizontal turnover in the air and so on;

2. The gantry falls into two categories:single girder and double girder. To rationally utilize materials, the girder adopts

optimum design of variable section;

3. The upper crab has two main hooks, which are sparately fixed at the outside of the girder.

4. The lower crab has a main hook and a secondary hook, which are fixed at the center of the two girders;

5. Both the upper crab and the lower crab can cross each other for operation.

6. All operating mechanisms employ frequency control;

7. On the top of the girder at the side of rigid leg is equipped a jib crane to accomplish maintenace of upper and lower crabs.

8. To prevent storm attack, such safe and reliable anti-wind devices as rail clamp and ground anchor are furnished.

1.Multiple protections, ensuring safety:

The crane is equipped with a whole crane equipment safety monitoring system, adopts PLC+Frequency Converter Communication Control Synchronous Control of multiple lifting points for automatic adjustment of balance, which makes the lifting more stable, safe and reliable operation;

2.Intelligent Positioning,reaching more precise positioning:

(1)Intelligent Automatic Positioning Function makes the positioning more precise.

(2)Double rails in one side design reduces the crane wheel pressure with effect, which saves the construction cost.

3.Energy Saving&More Stable lifting:

(1)The production of whole crane uses high strength special steel materials,which ensures not only the safety of structure,but continuous lifting work with the same loading conditions.

(2)The 750t gantry crane adopts to the power supply of 10KV, electric energy can be recycling automatically when heavy goods unloading process, it saves energy of 25%~30%.

It is special for fragmented transport, end-to-end jóoint and turning operation of large ship hulls.

Ship gantry crane task is to put all the parts required for the manufacture of the ship (ribs, steel, steel, etc.) from the ground transportation to manufacturing place. this transport work must be able to complete the task in a very long journey in transportation quickly. therefore, the number of cranes decided, enough to reach the dock area of the entire foundation, and each crane mutually interfere with each other in principle.

Application Scenario of Shipbuilding Gantry Crane

The Shipbuilding Gantry Crane is a specialized piece of equipment designed to facilitate the construction and assembly of large ship hulls. This crane is particularly adept at handling 

fragmented transport, enabling the efficient movement and positioning of various components necessary for ship manufacturing, including ribs, steel plates, and other essential materials.

Key Functions and Operations

Fragmented Transport:

The crane is built to efficiently manage the transport of large, bulky components from ground-level storage or transportation vehicles directly to the manufacturing site. Its design allows it

 to navigate through the complex shipbuilding environment, ensuring that heavy parts are lifted and delivered seamlessly where they are needed.

End-to-End Joint Operations:

One of the primary functions of the Shipbuilding Gantry Crane is to execute end-to-end joint operations. This involves precisely joining together different sections of the ship hull, which 

requires meticulous alignment and secure lifting capabilities. The crane's design allows for precise maneuvering, ensuring that even the heaviest pieces can be handled with ease.

Turning Operations:

In the shipbuilding process, turning operations are crucial, particularly when repositioning large components or hull sections for assembly. The gantry crane is equipped with advanced 

turning mechanisms that enable it to rotate large pieces smoothly and accurately, minimizing the risk of accidents or misalignment during assembly.

Efficiency in Large-Scale Transport

The transport work conducted by the Shipbuilding Gantry Crane is not only about lifting but also about optimizing the workflow within the shipyard. Given the extensive distances involved 

in moving heavy components, the crane is designed to operate quickly and effectively, completing tasks within limited timeframes. The capability to execute long-distance movements is 

essential for maintaining production schedules and ensuring that the manufacturing process runs smoothly.

Strategic Placement and Coordination

To maximize efficiency and coverage, the number of cranes deployed in the shipyard is strategically determined. Each crane is positioned to ensure it can reach all areas of the dock as well 

as the entire foundation of the ship being constructed. Coordination among multiple cranes is vital; while they may operate in close proximity, their design minimizes interference with one 

another, allowing for synchronized operations without hindrance. This careful planning ensures that all components can be lifted, transported, and positioned without delays, significantly 

enhancing the overall production efficiency.

In summary, the Shipbuilding Gantry Crane plays an indispensable role in the modern shipbuilding process, ensuring that all components are transported, assembled, and positioned with 

precision and efficiency, therefore contributing to the successful construction of large seafaring vessels.
