The end user is an automotive parts manufacturer in South Africa operating a large stamping and press-shop facility. The plant runs multiple production lines producing automotive body components and structural parts, supported by rows of mechanical and hydraulic stamping presses, robotic transfer systems, and automated feeding lines. Given the weight and size of the dies, coils, and stamped parts moving through the facility, the customer required overhead lifting equipment that could handle both routine production-line material flow and heavier, less frequent die-change and tooling operations.
The factory's press shop and tooling storage areas presented two distinct lifting demands:
The customer needed a reliable industrial overhead crane supplier experienced in automotive manufacturing environments, capable of delivering equipment engineered for South African site conditions, with dependable after-sales support for an overseas installation.
WEIHUA supplied a double girder overhead crane system sized for the plant's press shop, including a 20-ton double girder overhead crane for the main production and material handling area, complemented by a 32/16-ton double girder overhead crane serving the heavy tooling and die-handling section of the same facility.

Note: The automotive parts factory operates more than one overhead crane across its facility. The 32/16-ton crane serves the heavy die and tooling storage area, while the 20-ton crane covers the main stamping and production line, reflecting the different lifting demands within a single automotive manufacturing plant.
Following production and factory testing in China, the crane girders and components were prepared for oversized cargo transport, loaded onto flatbed trailers, and moved to port for ocean freight to South Africa. On-site erection followed WEIHUA's standard installation and commissioning procedures, with the crane systems tested under load before handover to the customer's maintenance and production teams.
With the WEIHUA double girder overhead crane system in operation, the automotive parts factory gained:
Automotive parts and stamping plants commonly use double girder overhead cranes in the 10–35 ton range, depending on the weight of dies, coils, and stamped components being handled. This project used a 20-ton crane for production line handling and a 32/16-ton crane for heavy die and tooling handling.
Double girder overhead cranes offer greater structural rigidity, higher lifting capacity, and wider hook coverage across the span, making them well suited to press shops and factories handling heavy dies, molds, and tooling.
Yes. WEIHUA supplies double girder and single girder overhead cranes, gantry cranes, and hoists to industrial customers across South Africa and other overseas markets, including the automotive manufacturing sector.
