2 Ton - Adjustable Span Aluminum Gantry Crane for Sale
11 Nov, 2021
Requirement
- The client comes from an automotive garage in Qatar, providing vehicle restoration, off-road equipment, and custom aftermarket performance modifications.
- The 5,000 square-foot garage has three work bays where mechanics modify and repair cars and trucks.
- They usually use a two-ton engine hoist for engine removal, but sometimes the hoist is too small for the job.
Solution
- To make up for the engine hoist’s failures, our client looked for a more versatile solution. We recommend a 2 ton Aluminum gantry crane with a span adjustment kit.
- The 3-5m adjustable span of the aluminum gantry crane allowed it to fit easily around the sides of a vehicle, so it could be positioned above any vehicle’s engine.
- So it could be used to remove engines from large SUVs, trucks, and even boats. It can also be useful in other ways.
More Benefits
- Aluminum Gantry Crane was easy to use, and the mechanics were able to adapt to using it quickly. It never got in the way like the engine hoist, making it easier for mechanics to work around.
- It’s also more stable and could provide better lateral movement thanks to the polyurethane casters, and the lightweight aluminum construction made it easy for one person to move or adjust it.
- Also can be used to lift and move heavy objects around the garage, and it can also be used for loading and unloading at the loading dock.
- The portable gantry crane provides better usability, greater versatility, and more vehicle protection than the conventional engine hoist, making it an excellent tool for many automotive jobs.
