In response to the specific lifting requirements of a leading Spanish solar panel manufacturer, we successfully delivered a custom-engineered 16+16 ton rubber tyred gantry crane. The client, engaged in the production of solar panels, needed a versatile and flexible lifting solution to efficiently manage and transport heavy electrical units within their facility.
Project Background
- The Spanish solar panel manufacturer has been at the forefront of renewable energy production, continually expanding its operations to meet growing demand. As part of their production expansion, the company required a reliable lifting solution to handle large and heavy electrical units, integral to their production process. Given the heavy-duty nature of their operations and the need for precise and safe handling of these units, a customized rubber tyre gantry crane was deemed essential.
Design and Customization of the 16+16 Ton Rubber Tyred Gantry Crane
The design of the rubber tyre gantry crane was tailored to meet the specific spatial and operational needs of the customer’s production facility. Key design considerations included:
- Compact Span: The 3.5-meter span was chosen to fit within the restricted space of the facility while allowing ample room for the movement and handling of electrical units.
- High Lifting Height: A lifting height of 7 meters was specified to accommodate the vertical space requirements, ensuring safe and efficient lifting and lowering of heavy equipment.
- Versatile Mobility: The crane’s capability to travel in 360-degree rotations, 45-degree oblique angles, and straight lines provided great flexibility in navigating the facility. This versatility was crucial for maneuvering around obstacles and optimizing workflow.
Advanced Safety and Monitoring Features of the 16+16 Ton Crane
To enhance operational safety and efficiency, the crane was equipped with several advanced features:
- Anti-Collision Instrument: This system was implemented to prevent collisions during crane operations, ensuring the safety of both the crane and the surrounding equipment.
- Weight Display: A real-time weight display was included to allow operators to monitor the load being lifted, preventing overloading and ensuring adherence to safety limits.
- Smartgen System: The Smartgen system provided advanced control and monitoring capabilities, enhancing the overall operational efficiency and reliability of the crane.
- Surveillance Camera: The installation of surveillance cameras allowed for real-time monitoring of crane operations, facilitating better control and ensuring safety protocols are followed.
