Ten tonnes covers a large share of yard work: sand and crushed stone with a grab, precast elements between beds, steel and pipe storage, and loading outside a workshop. At this capacity the gantry crane earns its keep because it goes where buildings cannot — and the specification questions are about rails, dust, wind and how many hours a day the crane runs.
| Capacity | 10 t (series 3 t – 100 t) |
|---|---|
| Span / rail gauge | 14 m – 30 m |
| Lifting height | 6 m – 12 m (higher on request) |
| Duty classification | A5–A6; A6–A7 for grab duty |
| Girder arrangement | Single or double girder; full gantry or semi-gantry |
| Attachment | Hook, clamshell grab, magnet, spreader beam |
| Hoisting speed | 0.5–8 m·min⁻¹ with VFD |
| Power supply | 380 V / 50 Hz standard; busbar or festoon along the rail |
| Outdoor package | Galvanized or epoxy finish, IP55, rail clamps, wind interlock option |
The table shows the range we normally supply. Your offer states the exact capacity, span, lifting height, duty class and voltage for your site — and where a figure here differs from the offer, the offer prevails. See the full gantry & semi-gantry cranes range →
Yes, with a quick-change arrangement or a grab that can be replaced by a hook block. In practice most yards pick one duty and stay with it, because the duty class and the structure follow the grab. Tell us both uses and we will quote the configuration that covers them without compromising either.
On a gantry project the civil work is a significant part of the total — sometimes comparable to the crane itself on soft ground or long tracks. We give you the wheel loads, rail section, gauge and level tolerances so your contractor can price it properly, and we will review your site plan with you to keep the track length sensible.
The crane is anchored with rail clamps when parked, and on exposed sites we add an anemometer with an automatic stop so operation ceases above the agreed wind speed. At 30 m span an unloaded gantry crane presents a large surface to the wind, which is why wind load is a design input rather than an afterthought.
Workshops, warehouses, assembly and maintenance bays. Light structure, low wheel load, quick to install.
1–20 t · span to 30 mHeavy duty and long spans: steel fabrication, precast yards, smelters, heavy machining shops.
5–100 t · custom spanLaunching gantries and bridge erection machines for road and rail viaduct projects.
Project-engineeredSend the span, lifting height and how many hours a day the crane runs — we reply with a specification and a price within 24 hours.
Crane type, capacity (t), span (m) and lifting height (m) is usually enough for us to quote. Send a photo of your workshop if you are not sure.
