About the relationship between electric hoist crane and bridge crane

Overhead cranes are divided according to the main girder, which can be directly divided into single main girder and double main girder. However, overhead cranes also have other characteristics, among which, the supporting hoisting mechanism is a bit special, and it is not easy to summarize directly at a glance. For example, the difference in concept, the difference in application, the type of gourd.
 

1. Are electric hoist bridge cranes and single girder bridge cranes the same concept? What are the differences

The two are not the same concept, there are similarities and differences

The same point: all use electric hoist as lifting;

Differences: 1. The position of the hoist is different. The hoist of the electric hoist bridge crane is above the bridge frame, and the electric hoist of the single girder bridge crane is hung below the main girder;

              2. The scope is different, the electric hoist bridge crane can be single girder or double girder, and the single girder bridge crane must be a single main girder.

2. Can the hoist of single-girder bridge crane only use electric hoist?

No, in addition to the electric hoist, a pneumatic hoist or a manipulator can also be used under the crane with a single main girder.

3. What are the types of crane hoists? Which one has the most applications?

(1) Chain hoists, lever hoists, electric hoists, pneumatic hoists, hydraulic hoists, etc.

(2) Electric wire rope hoist. The electric wire rope hoist is driven by a squirrel-cage cone-shaped rotor motor with its own brake, which has many advantages such as flexible speed change and speed regulation, and is more convenient and reliable, so it is widely used.

The crane hoist, as a crane supporting equipment, is complementary to the crane. However, as a tool for use, it can naturally be replaced, and it can be combined reasonably according to the specific use needs and with reference to the transformation standards. It is oriented to the needs of production and services, and provides strong help as the primary pursuit.
