Bridge Crane

Bridge crane is a heavy machinery that is designed to build or fix a bridge. It operates on two tracks and has four way horizontal movement. Bridge cranes cover rectangular area and can be floor supported or hung from the ceiling. The main components of bridge cranes are bridge, trolley, hoist drum, hoist cable, hoist block, hook bumpers, pendant and limit switches. On-off switch is on control pendant for taking emergency steps, in the event of failure of any of the control panels.

Bridge cranes are either double girder or single girder. Double girder bridge crane can be utilized at any capacity where extremely high hook lift is required because the hook can be pulled up between the girders. For high speeds and heavy services too, double girder bridge cranes are very useful. In bridge crane rigid box girder construction and durable trolley design are well suited for heavy service applications.
