Understanding Prices of Different Types of Aicrane Gantry Cranes
Gantry cranes are indispensable in a variety of industries for material lifting and handling tasks. Built on a structure with legs that move on rails or wheels and a beam or bridge that spans the area to be covered, these cranes use a lifting mechanism, either a hoist or a trolley, which travels along the beam to move the load. Here are some common types of Aicrane gantry cranes and their typical prices:
Double Girder Gantry Crane Price
Designed for heavier loads and applications requiring a wider span, our AQ-MG double girder gantry cranes can lift up to 500 tons. These cranes can be custom-designed to meet specific lifting needs, and their price reflects the complexity and capacity required for the job.
Below is our price list for double girder gantry cranes with various tonnages for your reference:
| Model | Capacity | Span | Price (USD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| AQ-MG | 10 Ton | 18-35m | $44,000-$110,000 |
| AQ-MG | 20 Ton | 18-35m | $73,000-$147,000 |
| AQ-MG | 32 Ton | 18-35m | $88,000-$176,000 |
| AQ-MG | 50 Ton | 18-35m | $110,000-$206,000 |
Rail Mounted Gantry Crane Price
Rail mounted gantry cranes (RMG cranes) are ideal for container terminals, ports, railway yards, and container yards. These cranes can lift and move containers of various sizes and weights with high efficiency. The RMG container gantry crane price depends on their capacity, the specific operational requirements of the site, and other factors.
Please find below our 30, 40 and 50 ton rail mounted container gantry crane price list for your reference:
| Capacity | Span | Lifting Height | Price (USD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| RMG 30 Ton | 22-32m | 12.3-21m | $264,000-$338,000 |
| RMG 40 Ton | 22-32m | 12.3-21m | $352,000-$412,000 |
| RMG 50 Ton | 22-32m | 12.3-21m | $411,000-$471,000 |
Rubber Tyred Gantry Crane Price
Rubber tyred gantry cranes are equipped with rubber tires instead of rails, allowing them to move easily around the working area. They are commonly used in precast concrete yards, power plants, steel yards, construction sites, ports, and shipyards. Rubber tyre gantry cranes can be fitted with various lifting attachments to handle different loads.
Since rubber tyred gantry cranes are highly customizable, options include single girder, double girder, and A-frame designs, with power sources that can be either electric or hydraulic.
For example, we supplied a 10-ton electric single beam rubber tyred gantry crane to a customer’s factory for approximately $65,000, while a double girder version would be more expensive.
Single Girder Gantry Crane Price
Single girder gantry cranes are typically used in factories, workshops, and warehouses for light to medium-duty lifting tasks. We offer the AQ-MH single girder gantry crane and the AQ-NMH European standard single girder gantry crane. These cranes are suitable for various lifting needs, with prices varying based on specifications, configurations and customization. Generally speaking, under the same specifications, the price of an AQ-NMH European standard gantry crane is more expensive than that of an AQ-MH single girder gantry crane.
To provide you with an idea of the single girder gantry crane prices, we have compiled an approximate price list for these two models with various tonnages for your reference.
| Capacity | Span | Lifting Height | Price (USD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| AQ-MH 5 Ton | 10.5-31.5m | 6-18m | $10,000-$29,000 |
| AQ-MH 10 Ton | 10.5-31.5m | 6-18m | $14,000-$41,000 |
| AQ-MH 20 Ton | 10.5-31.5m | 6-18m | $22,000-$52,000 |
| Capacity | Span | Lifting Height | Price (USD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single Girder 5 Ton | 10.5-31.5m | 6-12m | $14,000-$35,000 |
| Single Girder 10 Ton | 10.5-31.5m | 6-12m | $19,000-$43,000 |
| Single Girder 20 Ton | 10.5-31.5m | 6-12m | $29,000-$62,000 |
The above gantry crane prices are for reference only. The exact cost of a gantry crane can vary widely based on factors such as lifting capacity, span, height and other characteristics. The following is a brief introduction to the factors that affect the price of gantry cranes, so that you can have a better understanding of the price differences of gantry cranes.
Factors Affecting the Cost of Gantry Cranes
- Lifting Capacity: The lifting capacity of the gantry crane is one of the main factors that determines its cost. The higher the lifting capacity, the more expensive the gantry crane will be.
- Span Length: The span length is the distance between the legs of the gantry crane. The longer the span, the more materials are required to construct the gantry crane, and the more expensive it will be.
- Height: The height of the industrial gantry crane also affects its cost. The taller the gantry crane, the more materials are required to construct it, which can increase its cost.
- Work Duty: The work duty or usage requirements of a gantry crane can affect its cost. The higher the work duty, the more robust and heavy-duty the gantry crane needs to be, and this can increase its cost.
- Type of Gantry Crane: There are several types of gantry cranes, and each type has different design specifications and features that can impact its cost. Generally, more complex gantry cranes will cost more than simpler ones.
- Configuration: The configuration of the gantry crane will also affect its cost. For example, if the motor and reducer of the gantry crane are imported, they are usually more expensive than the basic gantry crane.
- Material: The material used to construct the gantry crane can also affect its cost. For example, some customers in Russia and Kazakhstan will require the use of cryogenic steel materials, so the price of gantry cranes will be more expensive.
- Transportation: Different transportation methods will also affect the gantry crane cost. For example, if you choose LCL, FCL, frame, or bulk cargo, the transportation prices are different.
How to Get the Right Overhead Gantry Crane Price
Given the substantial outlay required, it is essential to ensure that you get the right price for your gantry crane. Here are some key steps and considerations to help you achieve the best deal.
1. Understand Your Requirements
Before you start looking for prices, clearly define your requirements:
- Load Capacity: Determine the maximum weight the crane needs to lift.
- Span and Height: Measure the distance between the supports and the height the crane needs to lift.
- Operating Environment: Consider the working conditions, including indoor or outdoor use, temperature, humidity, and any hazardous conditions.
- Duty Cycle: Assess how frequently and intensively the crane will be used.
Having a detailed specification will help you get accurate quotes and avoid paying for unnecessary features.
2. Research and Compare
Do thorough research to identify reputable gantry crane manufacturers and suppliers. Compare the prices offered by different companies. While doing this, consider:
- Quality and Durability: High-quality cranes might come with a higher initial cost but offer better durability and lower maintenance costs in the long run.
- Warranty and After-Sales Service: Ensure that the supplier provides a good warranty and reliable after-sales support.
- Customization Options: Some suppliers offer customizable options that might suit your specific needs better.
3. Consider the Total Cost of Ownership
The purchase price is just one part of the total cost of ownership. Consider the following additional costs:
- Installation Costs: Factor in the cost of gantry crane installation, including any modifications to your existing infrastructure.
- Maintenance and Spare Parts: Estimate the ongoing maintenance costs and the availability and cost of spare parts.
- Operating Costs: Consider the energy consumption and efficiency of the crane.
A crane with a higher purchase price but lower operating and maintenance costs might be more economical in the long run.
4. Negotiate the Price
Don’t hesitate to negotiate the price. Be prepared to discuss your budget and seek discounts or payment terms that suit your financial planning.
5. Check for Seasonal Discounts and Promotions
Sometimes we may offer seasonal discounts or promotions. For example, end-of-year sales or new crane model introductions can be good opportunities to secure a better price. Keep an eye on these deals to take advantage of lower prices.
By following these steps, you can get an accurate and competitive price quote for a gantry crane that meets your lifting needs and budget.
