Double Girder Overhead Crane

Product Introduction

A double girder overhead crane is a heavy-duty lifting solution widely used in workshops, warehouses, steel plants, machinery manufacturing facilities, power plants, logistics centers, and other industrial applications. It consists of two main bridge girders, end carriages, a hoisting trolley, crane traveling mechanism, electrical control system, and safety protection devices.

Compared with a single girder overhead crane, a double girder overhead crane offers higher lifting capacity, larger span, greater lifting height, and stronger structural stability. The hoisting trolley runs on top of the two main girders, which provides better load distribution and allows the crane to handle heavier and more demanding lifting operations.

ZOKECRANE double girder overhead cranes are designed and manufactured by Henan Zoke Crane Co., Ltd., a professional lifting equipment manufacturer specializing in overhead cranes and gantry cranes. Our manufacturing base is located in Changyuan, Henan Province, one of China’s major crane production centers. With extensive experience in crane engineering, design, manufacturing, and quality control, ZOKECRANE provides reliable and customized lifting solutions for global customers.

Double Girder Overhead Crane

Our double girder overhead cranes can be equipped with various hoisting mechanisms, including open winch trolleys, wire rope hoist trolleys, and customized lifting devices according to different working conditions. The crane can be operated by pendant control, wireless remote control, or cabin control. For heavy-duty and high-frequency operations, cabin control and advanced electrical control systems are commonly recommended.

ZOKECRANE focuses on structural strength, operational safety, smooth performance, and long service life.

Frequently Asked Questions About Double Girder Overhead Crane

1. What is a double girder overhead crane?

A double girder overhead crane is a type of bridge crane with two main bridge girders. The hoisting trolley runs on top of the two girders, while the whole crane travels along runway beams installed on both sides of the workshop.

It is commonly used for medium-duty and heavy-duty lifting operations requiring higher capacity, larger span, and higher lifting height.

2. What is the difference between a single girder overhead crane and a double girder overhead crane?

A single girder overhead crane has one main bridge girder, while a double girder overhead crane has two main bridge girders.

Single girder cranes are usually used for light to medium-duty lifting operations and are more economical. Double girder cranes are suitable for heavier loads, larger spans, higher lifting heights, and more frequent working conditions.

3. What lifting capacity can a double girder overhead crane handle?

Double girder overhead cranes are commonly used for capacities from 5 tons to 500 tons or more, depending on the crane design and project requirements. ZOKECRANE can customize the lifting capacity according to customer needs.
