Handling large industrial equipment outdoors is always challenging, especially when dealing with high-value, delicate machinery. For a client in San Antonio, Texas, moving and positioning large commercial HVAC units within a crowded outdoor storage yard presented a unique set of difficulties. Standard lifting solutions proved inadequate, prompting Aicrane to provide a tailored 25 ton rubber tyred gantry crane with a specialized lifting device.
In the large-scale outdoor equipment yard, the core task was to safely and efficiently move and place heavy commercial HVAC units. Previously, the client relied on a supplier offering only standard lifting solutions, which were not customizable and came at a high cost. The client faced several pressing challenges:
Space constraintsNarrow yard aisles required the lifting equipment to have as compact an external footprint as possible.
Stability requirementsEach HVAC unit represented a high-value, precision-engineered asset, demanding extremely smooth and stable handling to prevent swaying or damage.
Overall needsThe client sought a reliable, cost-effective, fully site-adapted solution capable of addressing all operational constraints.
Aicrane project consultant began with detailed discussions to understand operational requirements and site constraints. Engineers performed simulation studies and concept designs based on actual yard layout and HVAC unit dimensions.
The 25 ton rubber tyred gantry crane was engineered with a 5.5-meter span, minimizing overall size to navigate tight aisles effortlessly. Variable frequency drives and precise speed control ensured smooth, sway-free lifts.
All components were manufactured in Aicrane’s facility under strict quality control protocols. Each crane underwent comprehensive load, stability, and operational testing before delivery, ensuring reliability and performance.
AICRANE handled international transportation, provided on-site installation guidance, and carried out commissioning. Operators received thorough training, and ongoing maintenance support was made available to the client.
Perfect fitThe custom rubber tyred gantry crane fit seamlessly into the site layout and moved HVAC units with outstanding stability and efficiency.
