30 Ton Overhead Crane Solution

A 30 ton crane specified as light overhead, winch overhead or gantry.

30 Ton Overhead Crane Solution supplied by TrueGlow Imaging

Product Overview

A 30 ton crane specified as light overhead, winch overhead or gantry. Light overhead covers 5 to 100 tons at 0-49 metres span with 30 or 40 metres of lift at 0.4-16 m/min. Winch overhead covers 5 to 360 tons at 0.4-20 m/min for heavy-duty construction and large hoisting. The gantry build reaches up to 320 tons over spans to 50 metres and is the version used for subway construction, outdoor warehouses and railroads.

Key benefits

Why Buyers Choose This Specification

Published Speed Figures for Each Build

Lifting at 0.4-16 m/min on the light and gantry builds and 0.4-20 m/min on the winch build. Cycle time can be calculated before the order rather than discovered after commissioning.

Driver Room or Remote on the Gantry

The gantry version is supplied with a driver room or remote control. On long outdoor runs a driver room keeps the operator with the load instead of walking the yard.

One Family From 5 to 360 Tons

The same two overhead designs cover the whole range, so a 30 ton crane bought now shares parts and controls with heavier cranes added later.

Hook Height Fixed at 30 or 40 Metres

Two defined lift heights rather than an open variable keeps the rope drum, hoist and electrical selection standard, which shortens the build.

Application scenarios

Where It Is Used

  • Subway and tunnel construction lifting segments and equipment
  • Outdoor warehouses stacking and retrieving heavy stock
  • Railroad yards handling track components and rolling stock
  • Heavy-duty construction hoisting on large sites
  • Light industrial use and construction hoist duty inside a bay
  • Large hoisting operations in heavy manufacturing
Who it is for

The Buyers This Product Suits

Infrastructure Contractors

Subway construction, railroads and outdoor warehouses are named applications for the 30 ton gantry build.

Heavy Fabrication Shops

The winch overhead build at 0.4-20 m/min is intended for heavy-duty construction and large hoisting rather than occasional lifts.

Plants Running Mixed Duty

A light overhead crane rated 5 to 100 tons covers a 30 ton nominal duty with headroom for the occasional heavier lift.

Problems it solves

What It Fixes

Cycle Times That Cannot Be Planned

Without published lifting and travel speeds, throughput is guesswork. Both speed ranges are stated for each build.

Outdoor Duty With Nothing Overhead

The gantry build to 50 metres span and 40 metres height removes the need for building steel entirely.

Operator Position on Long Runs

Walking a remote control along a 50 metre yard slows every cycle. A driver room is available on the gantry build for exactly this.

How It Ships And What Comes With It

Packing And Loading

Shipping volume for this item depends on the configuration and capacity you select, so no fixed container figure is published. Confirm the specification and the destination and a loading plan is issued with the quotation, rather than a figure we cannot support.

Documentation On File

Sourcing And Inspection

This product is supplied through TrueGlow Imaging, working with manufacturing partners whose facilities are visited and verified rather than taken on trust. In-process quality control and delivery supervision are available so goods are inspected before the container is sealed. Certifications quoted on this page are those stated on the product specification and belong to that product range rather than to our trading entity, so ask for the certificate covering your specific item.

Handling guide

Getting It Right First Time

Step 1

Pick the build from the environment: bay with runway, bay without, or open yard.

Step 2

Send span and clear height, then confirm whether 30 or 40 metres of lift is required.

Step 3

State the duty cycle so light and winch builds can be compared properly.

Step 4

Choose driver room or remote control on the gantry before the structure is designed.

Step 5

Verify rail and foundation capacity for the wheel loads at the chosen span.

FAQ

30 Ton Overhead Crane Solution Questions

How fast will a 30 ton load lift?

0.4 to 16 m/min on the light overhead and gantry builds, 0.4 to 20 m/min on the winch overhead build.

What is the maximum span?

0 to 49 metres on the overhead builds and up to 50 metres on the gantry.

Is a driver cab available?

Yes. Wireless, cab and handheld control on the overhead builds, and a driver room or remote control on the gantry.

Can the same crane handle heavier loads later?

The light build family runs to 100 tons and the winch family to 360 tons, so there is headroom inside the same design.

Is it suitable for subway construction?

The 30 ton gantry build lists subway construction, outdoor warehouses and railroads as its applications.

What lead time should we plan for?

Lead time depends on span, height and control format. Send those three and a build schedule is confirmed with the quotation.

Guides That Cover This Product

Choosing an Overhead Crane Light Build or Winch Build

Most crane enquiries name a tonnage. The two questions that actually decide the crane are whether the hook pulls as well as lifts, and how many lifts it makes per shift.

Choosing a Jib Crane Mounting for Your Building

Six mounting types exist because the building constrains the crane more often than the load does. Wall, column, free-standing, articulating, mast and portable each solve a different constraint.
