Latest company news about Guide to selecting overhead cranes and how to get the best price

Bridge cranes are widely used in various industrial environments, especially in heavy industrial fields such as factories, warehouses, ports, and metallurgy. Choosing an ideal model can not only improve production efficiency, but also ensure operational safety and reduce subsequent maintenance costs. However, there are many decisions to be made during the selection process. How to choose the most suitable bridge crane and get the best price is a question that every one of us is very concerned about.

1.Key points for selecting bridge crane

  • Lifting capacity

 

1、Lifting capacity is one of the most basic and critical factors in our selection process. It is very important to choose the right lifting capacity according to your operation requirements. If it is too small, it cannot meet the work requirements; if it is too large, it may lead to waste of equipment resources and increase operating costs.

 

2、Common lifting capacity selection ranges from 5 tons to 100 tons, and larger lifting capacities can be customized according to needs.

 

  • Span

 

1、The span refers to the distance between the two ends of the bridge, which determines the working area that the bridge crane can cover. When choosing, make sure the span is suitable for the layout of the workshop or production line.

 

2、Common spans range from 7.5 meters to 35 meters, but if there are special needs, they can be adjusted according to the actual workshop layout.

 

  • Lifting Height

 

1、The lifting height determines the maximum height that a crane can lift. When using it, you need to consider the height of the material stacking, the height limit of the workshop, and the vertical operating space of the equipment.

 

2、The standard lifting height is usually between 6 meters and 30 meters, and can also be customized according to the operation requirements.

 

  • Duty Class

 

1、It refers to the load and frequency of use of the crane, which affects the durability and life of the crane. Common duty classes include ISO M5 to M7, FEM 2M to 4M.

 

2、If you need to perform high-frequency operations (such as 24-hour operation), you should choose equipment with a higher duty class.

 

  • Control Mode

 

1、There are many control modes for bridge cranes, including wire control, wireless remote control and cab control.

 

If the working environment requires high flexibility, remote operation or multi-station operation, it is recommended to choose wireless remote control or cab control.

 

  • Environmental Specifications

 

1、For special environments, such as explosion-proof areas, high temperatures, low temperatures, etc., bridge cranes should comply with relevant protection standards (such as IP65 protection level, explosion-proof design, etc.).

 

2、Ensure that the particularity of the working environment is taken into account when selecting the model to avoid premature damage to the equipment due to environmental incompatibility

2.How to get the best price 

  • Clarify requirements and reduce unnecessary configuration

 

1、When choosing a model, you need to understand all the necessary technical parameters and requirements. Over-configuration not only wastes money, but also brings unnecessary maintenance costs.

 

​2、When communicating with suppliers, clarify your actual application scenarios and load requirements, avoid purchasing high-configuration equipment, and ensure cost-effectiveness

 

  • The scale effect of purchasing volume

 

1、If you plan to purchase multiple cranes or purchase them for a long time, you can negotiate with the supplier for discounts or preferential prices.​

 

2、Consider discounts when purchasing in bulk, or even long-term cooperation agreements, which can reduce the purchase cost of a single device and also obtain long-term stable service and maintenance.

 

  • Focus on maintenance and usage costs

 

1、The initial purchase price is the key factor, but the subsequent maintenance, upkeep and operating costs will also affect the total cost. When selecting the equipment, you should consider the equipment's ease of maintenance and long-term use costs.​

 

2、Choosing equipment with low maintenance cost and high durability can save the company a lot of later expenses

 

  • Choose the right payment method and delivery cycle

 

1、Discuss flexible payment methods with suppliers to ensure reasonable cash flow. Some suppliers offer installment payments or prepayment discounts, which can be negotiated based on your own situation.​

 

2、Pay attention to the delivery cycle and ensure timely delivery to meet the production plan. If time is sufficient, you can also get a better price by a longer delivery time.
