Gantry cranes are a type of bridge crane, characterized by a horizontal main beam supported by two legs, forming a gantry shape, and running on ground rails. They are primarily used in outdoor locations such as open-air freight yards, ports, and construction sites for cargo handling and component lifting. This article will provide a detailed introduction to the definition, structural components, functional characteristics, and types of gantry cranes. If you are unsure how to choose the right gantry crane, this article will help you make an informed decision. Please continue reading:
Gantry cranes use a gantry frame structure, which includes a horizontal main beam, vertical supporting legs on both sides, and other components such as the lifting mechanism. They feature high site utilization, a large working range, wide adaptability, and strong versatility, and people primarily use them for loading and unloading goods and bulk materials in outdoor yards and storage areas.
The main characteristics of gantry cranes are their large span, stable structure, and high efficiency. They are capable of multi-directional movement, including horizontal, vertical, and lateral movements, making them very flexible. In practical applications, gantry cranes are often used for lifting heavy objects, such as containers and large equipment. In ports, logistics centers, and shipyards, gantry cranes effectively handle the transportation, loading, unloading, and stacking of materials.
A gantry crane consists of components such as the main beam, support legs, trolley running mechanism, hoisting mechanism, driver's cab, ladder and platform, and buffers. The functions and characteristics of each component are as follows:

1.Working environments: Bridge cranes mainly operate indoors, handling material lifting in warehouses and workshops; gantry cranes mainly operate outdoors, handling the loading and unloading of goods.
2.Appearances: Bridge cranes lack supporting legs. Instead, concrete columns or brackets within a workshop support their ends, giving them a bridge-like appearance. In contrast, gantry cranes feature two supporting legs installed beneath the main beam, resembling a door frame.
3. Functions: O cranes save space by being suspended overhead in workshops, thus occupying no floor area. Gantry cranes, however, offer high site utilization, a large working range, wide adaptability, and strong versatility. These characteristics lead to their widespread use in construction sites and ports.
4.Running tracks: Bridge cranes are suspended on tracks supported by fixed columns between bays of a building, used in workshops, warehouses, etc.; gantry cranes have two tall supporting legs at both ends of the main beam, running along tracks on the ground.
Gantry overhead crane specifications and key parameters include:
