LOCATION: Kukuljanovo

YEAR OF PRODUCTION: 2018.

TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS:

• maximum load: 500 kg

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION:

For the needs of the investor, the company Formator Ltd., a project of a hanging single-girder bridge crane was made.

The maximum load capacity of the cranes is 500 kg, the span of the crane bridge is 5 m, and the maximum lifting height of the crane is 3,28 m. The crane is mounted on the crane tracks in the company's production hall on Kukuljanovo.

The working movement of lifting and lowering the load is performed in two speeds, while the travel movements of the hoist and the bridge are performed manually by pulling the hook or the load suspended from the hook.

The lift and lower drive control is controlled via a suspended cable control unit with reduced voltage.

The VMD 500 kg / 5 m single-girder overhead bridge crane belongs to the M6 ​​operating class according to the ISO standard.

Single-girder bridge cranes consist of:

• steel structure, consisting of:
  • main crane carrier manufactured from HEB profile,
  • end carriages,
• hoist with a load capacity of 500 kg,
• electrical equipment.

The electrical equipment of the crane consists of:

• electric motor of the lifting mechanism with brake,
• electric motor with brake for driving a hoist,
• two electric motors with brakes for driving the bridge,
• control cabinet,
• limit switches for switching off the lift drive, the hoist drive and the bridge drive,
• suspended cable control unit with reduced voltage,
• main switches, and
• power and control cables within the crane itself.

There are steel bumpers on the main girder to prevent the hoist from falling out of the main girder. At the ends of the crane tracks, steel bumpers were installed as a safety against the crane falling off the tracks.
