How to Choose the Right Electric Overhead Travelling Crane

Choosing the right EOT (Electric Overhead Traveling) crane is critical to ensuring safe, efficient, and cost-effective operations. Whether you’re setting up a new facility or upgrading existing equipment, here’s a step-by-step guide to help you select the most suitable crane for your specific needs.

Electric Overhead Travelling Crane for Sale

Define Your Lifting Requirements

What are you lifting, and how heavy?

  • Load capacity: Start by identifying the maximum weight you’ll need to lift.
  • Load type: Are you handling raw materials, steel coils, finished goods, or bulky components? This affects the choice of lifting attachments.

Example: For long steel plates, an electromagnetic crane with a spreader beam may be ideal.

Measure Your Workspace

Understand the size and layout of your facility.

  • Span: Distance between the runway rails
  • Lifting height: Required vertical space between the hook and the ground
  • Clearance: Any height restrictions due to beams or ceilings
  • Travel length: How far the crane needs to move across the bay

Choose the Right EOT Crane Type

Single girder or double girder?

  • Single girder electric overhead travelling crane: suitable for light to medium loads (up to 20 or 25 tons)
  • Double girder electric overhead travelling crane: Ideal for heavy-duty applications (up to 500 tons and beyond), longer spans, and higher lifting heights

You can also choose top-running or under running eot crane designs based on your building’s structure.

Determine Usage Frequency (Duty Class)

How often will the crane operate?

Crane working class determines its mechanical and electrical durability:

  • A3-A4: Occasional use, low frequency
  • A5-A6: Frequent or continuous operation in industrial settings

Choosing the correct duty class avoids unnecessary wear or underperformance.

Consider Special Requirements

Do you have industry-specific or environmental conditions to consider?

  • Need explosion-proof or corrosion-resistant design?
  • Will the crane work in extreme heat, cold, or outdoors?
  • Do you require special lifting attachments like grabs, magnets, or coil clamps?

Answering these early helps avoid costly modifications later.

Plan for Future Scalability

Will your operations expand in the next 3-5 years?

It’s wise to design your eot crane system with future capacity or integration in mind – for example, upgrading from 10 ton to 20 ton eot crane, or adding a second crane on the same runway.

Still unsure which model is right for your needs? Contact our crane experts today. We’ll assess your requirements and recommend the most suitable solution for your facility.

What’s the Price of an EOT Crane for Sale?

Whether you’re looking for a single girder model or a high-capacity dg EOT crane, understanding the prices can help you make an informed decision.

Single girder EOT crane prices

Single girder 5 ton to 20 ton EOT crane prices typically range from $2,700 to $12,500 and more, depending on the capacity, span, lifting height and other factors.

Double girder EOT crane prices

How to Buy an Electric Overhead Travelling Crane Within Your Budget

If you’re working within a fixed budget, here are some practical tips to help you get the most value without compromising performance:

Compare Types and Models Based on Your Real Needs

Don’t pay for more than what you need – and don’t underbuy either.

  • Single girder vs. double girder: If you’re lifting under 20 tons with a shorter span, a single girder electric overhead travelling crane is often more economical and sufficient.
  • Model differences: European standard electric overhead cranes (e.g., AQ-QDX, AQ-HD) offer compact design and energy efficiency, while general types (e.g., AQ-QD, AQ-LD) are more affordable upfront.

Tip: List out your required lifting capacity, span, and working frequency, then match with the correct model.

Consider Customization Smartly

Custom features can drive up eot crane costs – but also add long-term value.

  • Only select custom features (e.g. special lifting tools, anti-sway systems, weatherproofing) that truly fit your usage
  • If your site has complex needs, a well-designed custom crane can reduce downtime, labor costs, and future upgrades

Tip: Talk to your eot crane manufacturer early about which features are essential, optional, or unnecessary for your situation.

Request Detailed Quotations from Multiple Manufacturers

Obtain quotes from multiple EOT crane manufacturers or suppliers, ensuring they include:

  • Technical specs
  • Scope of supply (steel structure, electrics, controls)
  • Installation and after-sales service
  • Delivery terms and lead time

Tips: Compare not just the upfront cost but also the value-added services like maintenance packages or training.

Work with a Trusted, Experienced Manufacturer

Cheaper isn’t always better. A reliable EOT crane manufacturer or supplier offers:

  • Correct model selection
  • Technical support & drawing design
  • On-site or remote installation assistance
  • Spare parts availability
  • Long-term warranty and responsive service

Tip: Look for EOT crane manufacturers and suppliers with global project experience, clear documentation, and real customer case studies.

Take Advantage of Promotions or Package Deals

EOT crane suppliers often offer seasonal promotions, discounts on popular models, or package pricing if you order multiple cranes or include runway beams.

Tip: Ask if there are ongoing promotions, or if bundling steel structure, hoist, and crane together can save costs.

EOT Crane FAQ – What Customers Ask Most

Still have questions? Here are some of the most common questions our customers ask when selecting, customizing, and investing in an EOT crane solution.

What’s the difference between a single girder vs double girder eot crane

  • Single girder EOT is more cost-effective, lighter, and easier to install. The crane is ideal for loads typically under 20 tons and for facilities with space or budget constraints.
  • Double girder EOT offers greater lifting capacity, longer spans, and can incorporate more advanced lifting devices – perfect for heavy-duty or high-frequency operations.

If you’re not sure which to choose, we can evaluate your needs and recommend the best fit.

What is the difference between an eot crane vs gantry crane?

  • EOT (Electric Overhead Travelling) cranes are fixed electric overhead cranes or electric bridge cranes installed inside buildings and operate on runway beams fixed to columns.
  • Gantry cranes have legs and run on tracks on the ground – commonly used outdoors or in open yards where no support structure exists.

Use electric overhead travelling cranes when you have a strong indoor structure. Use gantry cranes when flexibility and outdoor mobility are needed.

What’s the difference between an eot crane vs overhead crane?

Technically, an EOT crane is a type of overhead crane that’s electrically operated.

However, not all overhead cranes are EOT cranes – for example, manual cranes also exist.

If you’re looking for powered, efficient lifting across a factory or workshop, electrically operated overhead travelling cranes are the ideal solution.

What is technical specification of EOT crane?

The EOT crane technical specifications define its capabilities and suitability for specific applications, such as:

  • EOT Crane Capacity: The capacity of an Electric Overhead Traveling (EOT) crane is the maximum weight it can safely lift, measured in tons (e.g., 20 ton EOT crane, 30 ton EOT crane, 50 ton EOT crane, 100 ton EOT crane).
  • Span: The span is the horizontal distance between the rails that support the crane’s movement. This dimension is critical because it determines the coverage area of the crane.
  • Lifting Height: It refers to the maximum height the electrically operated overhead travelling crane can lift a load, measured from the level of the hook to the highest point the load can reach.
  • Speed of Operation: Over head travelling cranes typically have different speed settings for various operations. These speeds are specified for: hoisting speed, travel speed, and trolley speed.
  • Working Class: The working class defines the frequency of operation and load handling capacity of the crane. It is an indicator of how much work the crane is expected to perform over a given period. The duty class ensures that the crane is robust enough for the required workload without compromising safety. For example, A3 – light duty overhead cranes for occasional use.

Looking for 10 ton, 15 ton, 20 ton, 25 ton, 30 ton, 40 ton, 50 ton, 100 ton, 300 ton, and 500+ ton EOT crane specifications? Contact us for details.

How does an EOT crane work?

The electric overhead travelling crane operates on an overhead runway system, using electric power to perform lifting, lowering, and horizontal movement of loads. Its three main axes of movement – longitudinal (along the runway), transverse (across the girder), and vertical (up and down) – allow precise positioning of loads within a defined workspace. Here is the EOT crane working principle:

  • Power Supply: The crane is connected to an electric power source, which drives the motors and control systems. This power is typically supplied through a conductor bar system or a cable reel.
  • Horizontal Motion: The bridge moves along the longitudinal axis on the runway tracks, powered by a motorized drive system. The trolley, carrying the hoist, moves transversely along the bridge girder, providing precise horizontal positioning.
  • Vertical Lifting: The hoist, attached to the trolley, raises or lowers the load using a wire rope or chain mechanism. The hoist’s motor provides the lifting power, while brakes and limit switches control movement for safety.
  • Load Positioning: By coordinating the bridge, trolley, and hoist movements, the crane positions the load accurately at the desired location.

How long does it take to manufacture and deliver an overhead travelling crane?

Our electric traveling bridge cranes can be delivered in 20-40 working days, while special customized cranes may take longer, depending on complexity of your project. We always aim to align with your project timeline.

How to operate EOT crane safely?

How to operate an electric overhead travelling crane is one of the top concerns for new users. We recommend: certified operator training, following control instructions, performing routine inspections, never exceeding rated load limits, using emergency stop features properly. We provide detailed manuals and training service to every customer.
