Heavy Load Lifting Equipment in Uganda

Key Features of Single Girder EOT Cranes as per IS 3177:

• Load Capacity: The standard specifies the maximum load capacity for single girder EOT cranes based on their design and structural integrity.
• Span: The distance between the end trucks / end carriages of the crane, which determines the maximum span that can be covered. Herc can manufacture these cranes upto a span of 40 Meters.
• Lift Height: The maximum height to which the hoist can lift a load is 50 meters.
• Travel Speed: The maximum speed at which the crane can travel along the rails.
• Hoist Speed: The maximum speed at which the hoist can raise or lower a load.
• Control System: The standard specifies requirements for the control system, including emergency stops, overload protection, and radio remote control options.
• Safety Features: Single girder EOT cranes must be equipped with safety features such as limit switches, anti-collision devices, rope guide rings and emergency braking systems.
• Inspection and Testing: Regular inspections and tests are required to ensure the crane’s continued safe operation.

Advantages of Single Girder EOT Cranes:

• Compact Design: Single girder cranes have a smaller footprint compared to double girder cranes, making them suitable for applications with limited space.
• Lower Cost: They are generally less expensive to purchase and maintain than double girder cranes.
• Easier Installation: Single girder cranes are often easier to install and require less structural support.
• Suitable for Lighter Loads: They are well-suited for lifting lighter loads, such as those found in smaller manufacturing facilities or warehouses up to a capacity of 15 Tons.

Applications of Single Girder EOT Cranes:

• Manufacturing: For lifting and moving components in smaller factories and workshops.
• Warehousing: For loading and unloading goods from trucks and trains.
• Construction: For lifting materials during construction projects.
• Maintenance: For accessing and repairing equipment in industrial facilities.
