What is EOT Crane?
Electric Overhead Traveling Crane is a crane attached either with numerous girders or only a single girder bridge with a fixed/movable hoisting mechanism. It travels on a fixed structure with most of its functions being powered by electric motors. EOT (Electric Overhead Travelling) cranes are majorly used for moving materials in assembly lines, construction sites, power stations, production halls, and similar sectors. An EOT’s design varies as per the motion type, type of load, weight, etc.
The surge in migration of people to the urban area results in demand for a new residence and the need for efficient transport facilities that in turn leads to a sizable rise of infrastructure projects and escalating demand for the EOT crane market.
The proliferation of construction projects across the world is anticipated to bolster the market growth for EOT Crane in the days to come. An increase of wind energy projects across the world will need Electric Overhead Travelling cranes for their installation and therefore, have a greater number of opportunities in on-shore as well as off-shore.
EOT cranes are largely classified into three categories that include:
- top running single girder bridge cranes
- top running double girder bridge cranes
- under running bridge cranes
Furthermore, they are divided into:
A Single girder bridge crane’s trolley runs on the bottom flange of the bridge girder. It has only 1 supporting bridge girder, whereas the trolley of the double bridge girder crane runs on the top flange of the bridge girder. It has 2 bridge girders to support it. Furthermore, in the gantry electrical cranes, the trolley is actually supported by numerous legs that are fixed on runways/rails.
The
monorail cranes consist of only a trolley hoist. It does not need a bridge girder for any support. While these
Types of cranes are mostly used in the segment such as production service lines and assembly lines, EOT (Electrical overhead traveling) cranes are mainly used in iron smelting, construction industry, mining industry, motor vehicle manufacturing, steel manufacturing industries, port operations, etc. The Electrical overhead traveling cranes are used for container handling in ports and shipyards.
Applications
The EOT cranes are used in the shipbuilding, construction industry, textile industries, ceramic industries, foundries, transport industry, petrochemical industries, dairy industries, power plants, petrochemicals, steel plants, fertilizers, cement industry, In Assembly lines, etc.
How EOT Cranes Enhance Safety and Efficiency
- Reduce the risk of accidents. EOT cranes can help to reduce the risk of accidents by automating the lifting and moving of heavy loads. This eliminates the need for workers to lift and move heavy objects manually, which can be dangerous. EOT cranes also come with a number of safety features, such as overload protection and limit switches, which can help to prevent accidents.
- Improve productivity. EOT cranes can help to improve productivity by moving loads more quickly and efficiently than workers can. This is because EOT cranes can lift and move much heavier loads than workers can, and they can be operated from a safe distance. EOT cranes can also be programmed to move loads along specific paths, which can further improve productivity.
- Reduce labor costs. EOT cranes can help to reduce labor costs by eliminating the need for workers to lift and move heavy objects manually. This can free up workers to focus on other tasks, such as production or quality control. EOT cranes can also help to reduce the risk of injuries, which can save on workers' compensation costs.
How To Get EOT Crane Price?
The EOT crane price is influenced by a number of factors, the
overhead crane price fluctuation is governed by the capacity of overhead crane manufacturers and demand from terminal consumers or crane operators. Aside from the primary overhead crane price determining factor, secondary factors such as overhead crane types, crane span length, overhead crane lifting capacity, crane duty cycle, overhead crane application or operation environment, and building structural conditions, among others, have an impact on overhead crane prices.
- Lifting capacity (T)
- Span (S)
- Lifting height (H)
- Power supply(e.g. 380V 50Hz 3Phase)
- Crane traveling length (L)
- Application/Working conditions of the crane?
- How many hours does the crane need to work each day?
- Shall we provide you with the crane traveling rails?
- Other requirements?
