Reconstruction of a 20 t gantry crane

№ 5727

As part of the reconstruction, the crane was technically adapted for operation with both hook and grab attachments.

A comprehensive reconstruction of the gantry crane was completed with the following technical parameters:

  • Span: 26 m
  • Rated load capacity: 20 t
  • Lifting height: 9.3 m
  • Crane travel speed (with load): 0...21 m/min
  • Trolley travel speed (with load): 0...24 m/min
  • Hoisting speed: 0...4 m/min


Main works performed:

  • Repair of steel structures and inspection of all welded joints. Based on the results of non-destructive testing, all identified structural defects were eliminated.
  • A new operator cabin was designed and installed, equipped with all necessary access and control systems. A load capacity mode selector switch with three positions was installed in the cabin: 5 t, 10 t, 20 t.
  • The power supply system was upgraded by installing a motor-driven cable reel with a cable capacity of 80 m. A cable with UV-resistant insulation was used for power supply.
  • Additional access walkways, working platforms and service access systems were installed to ensure safe maintenance of the crane mechanisms.

The entire cabling and wiring system was fully upgraded; all mechanisms were equipped with modern Schneider Electric variable frequency drives.
