Pipe Handling Crane, Tailored Overhead Crane & Pipe Handling Spreader

Yuantai Solution

Steel pipe handling crane is an overhead crane with tailored pipe handling spreader for single large pipe & bulk pipes handling to improve efficiency & safety. For different types of pipe handling, the customized pipe handling cranes and crane attachments are available.

Are you looking for an overhead crane to handle pipes? From lifting plates to lifting pipes, we are specialized is various steel product handling, especially in steel pipe handling, including the coated pipes. We handle your steel pipes no matter it is huge pipe or bulk pipes safely and effectively during manufacture, storage, transhipment, transport, and offshore, regardless of weight or material.

Slings are commonly used for pipe lifting. Manual labor is required for both sling attachment and removal. Attaching a single pipe at ground level is simple, but pipes are sometimes stacked several meters high in a pyramid shape. To attach and detach the slings, someone has to climb the stack of pipes, that poses a serious risk to life and limb! Each and every pipe handling crane is made to eliminate this risk.

Overhead pipe handling cranes for higher efficiency & safety

A steel pipe handling overhead crane is a steel mill overhead crane, particularlydesigned for steel pipes handing, equipped with tailored steel handling lifters or spreader such as C-hooks, magnetic blocks, clamps, etc. In the production line, steel pipes are also distributed by the overhead crane before being sawed. To achieve the distribution of steel pipe, we developpted the intelligent overhead cranes that can autonomously move steel pipes from one roller table to any specified locations.

Features of steel pipe handling overhead crane

  • 1. To achieve automatic and precise positioning, the encoder inputs the position signal into the PLC. The speed is calculated by the PLC, and the swing is prevented by a steel wire rope with a V-shaped structure. This increases the crane's production efficiency and safety while reducing swing amplitude.
  • 2. Steel pipe distribution and transportation are fully automatic, quick, and intelligent thanks to the anti-sway and automatic accurate placement technology.
  • 3. The pipe handling overhead crane adopts a redundant design scheme. A standby system is installed in the hoisting mechanism, trolley traveling mechanism, and electrical components to ensure the continuously operation and reliability.

Lifting requirements for the overhead pipe handling crane

The steel pipe workshop's construction is now complete, thus a specially made overhead crane is needed to go along with the designs of the workshop. The pipe handling overhead crane engineer discovered that the workshop's overhead clear room is constrained based on the dimensions of the building, while the lifting height must also be ensured. As a result, the Saudi Arabia client is suggested with a 5 ton overhead crane , equipped with a European style low headroom hoist design for steel pipe handling.
