Project Overview: Heavy-Duty Lifting Demands in Uzbekistan’s Mining Sector

Located in a major industrial zone in Uzbekistan, this mining project is a typical heavy industrial construction site involving large-scale equipment installation and continuous lifting operations.

Engineering Solution: Multi-Capacity Overhead Crane Configuration

Based on the project requirements in Uzbekistan, two overhead cranes with different lifting capacities were installed in separate workshop spans to handle different lifting tasks during the construction process.

125-Ton Double Girder Overhead Crane: Heavy-Duty Lifting Operations

The 125 ton overhead crane was assigned to the most critical lifting tasks in the mining project, including:

• Installation of large crushing and processing equipment
• Lifting of heavy steel structural modules
• Precise positioning of oversized mechanical assemblies

50-Ton Double Girder Overhead Crane: High-Frequency Auxiliary Support

The 50 ton overhead crane complements the main lift crane by executing daily operational and auxiliary tasks, including:

• Medium-sized equipment installation
• Material transportation within the workshop or construction site
• Supporting assembly operations during main equipment installation

Delivery & Commissioning: Precision Engineering on Site

AICRANE provided a comprehensive service package for this project in Uzbekistan, extending beyond manufacturing to intensive on-site installation guidance and system commissioning.

Technical Installation Guidance

The AICRANE field service team supervised and verified the following mechanical and electrical alignments:

• Structural Alignment: Performed geometric leveling and span verification to align the crane main girders with the runway rail system.
• Mechanical Connections: Supervised the torque tightening of all high-strength bolts connecting the main girders to the end trucks.
• Electrical Integration: Audited power supply cabling, busbar contacts, and control cabinet wiring to eliminate voltage-drop risks.

Commissioning and Functional Testing

For these heavy-duty cranes, a sequential testing protocol was executed to verify structural integrity and rated capacities:

• Load Sequence Testing: Conducted standard static and dynamic load tests (including rated load and specified overload verifications) to measure girder deflection and structural recovery.
• Travel and Alignment Controls: Calibrated Variable Frequency Drives (VFD) to ensure synchronized acceleration and deceleration for both bridge and trolley travel.
• Safety System Verification: Tested and set upper/lower hoisting limit switches, anti-collision sensors, emergency stop circuits, and overload protection limiters.

Project Results: Driving the Project to Successful Production

The successful deployment and testing of the 125t and 50t double girder overhead cranes delivered the following direct operational results for the Uzbekistan mining project:

Understanding the Sardine Farm’s Lifting Needs And Challenges

When the client’s company, the largest sardine aquaculture operation in Central America, planned a new pier with two maintenance facilities for fishing vessels, they faced a complex challenge. One of the workshops, dedicated to spray painting, needed four overhead and gantry cranes to handle daily maintenance and repair operations efficiently. As a completely new construction project, the workshop required highly professional and reliable lifting solutions to ensure smooth workflow from day one.

The site presented several difficulties:

• There was no suitable lifting equipment on-site except for a truck-mounted crane.
• The truck crane could not enter the workshop, limiting its usefulness.
• The new workshop layout required a solution that optimized space and workflow while providing safe, reliable lifting.

Our team recognized that the client needed more than just equipment – they needed a partner who could design, install, and ensure the equipment worked perfectly in a challenging environment.

AICRANE Solution: Custom Crane Layout for Maximum Workshop Efficiency

To meet these needs, AICRANE proposed a custom crane configuration:

• Three semi-gantry cranes, each with a load capacity of 2.5T+2.5T, a 10.12m span, and a lifting height of 4.25m, positioned along the sides of the workshop to fully utilize available space.
• A single girder bridge crane with a load capacity of 15T, a 27.14m span, and a lifting height of 7.5m, installed above the semi-gantry cranes to provide additional lifting capacity for larger or heavier loads.

This tailored setup not only optimizes the available workspace but also ensures versatile lifting options for a variety of workshop operations. Our engineers personally oversaw the verification, installation, and testing of all cranes, ensuring every detail was carefully managed. We worked side by side with the client to make sure the cranes fit perfectly into their workflow, and could be used safely and efficiently from day one.

Building Long-Term Success Through Trusted Partnerships

This project marked the client’s third collaboration with Aicrane, and it was our continued commitment that made the difference. By understanding their operations, anticipating challenges, and providing hands-on support, we were able to turn a complex project into a smooth, successful deployment.

The client shared their appreciation for our team, saying:

“Mr. Hou’s technical support and collaboration are excellent. He is punctual and proactive, committed to the verification and installation of the three gantry cranes and the bridge crane, and attentive to every detail.”

At Aicrane, we believe success is measured not just by equipment delivered, but by the real impact we create for our clients. By carefully understanding our client’s needs, providing tailored solutions, and staying with them through every step of installation, we ensured the workshop could operate efficiently, safely, and reliably from the very first day.
