How to choose the suitable crane?
We need to make a choice when we intend to choose a crane. And the choice should not be based on the general thought in the user’s mind. For example: I want to lift 2t of objects so I buy a 2t crane; I want to lift 5t, so purchase the 5t crane and so on. In fact, to choose a suitable crane, we also need to consider the specific circumstance and purpose of the hoisted objects.
Follow a basic truth while choosing the crane: “What you paid, what you get”. The price will be relatively high for the crane with good quality, and the lower price for the poor quality ones. At the same time, there is no free quality assurance. The user can select the right crane according to the actual situation of the hung objects. Now I will share the years of experience in the hoisting machine field, making a brief instruction on how a corporation can choose a suitable crane for the reference.
1, The large loading capacity and operation frequently such as the pre-cast yard. The pre-cast plant is one the largest crane-dependent factories. There is almost no interval in the process of the production. It had better choose the high quality crane in such cases. Although its high price, but the durable and safely performance can guarantee the production carrying on smoothly. So we should consider it carefully. Adopt the crane with low price will be repaired every year, and maybe repaired frequently shortly. It will affect the production period, even the company’s reputation.
2, The large loading capacity but not operated frequently-generally conducting it every 3 or 5 days. In this case, we can choose the product of the private enterprise which enjoys the good reputation in this field. The life span of the crane depends on largely the lifting capacity and frequency, in particular the frequency. Therefore even if the lifting capacity is large, however its rare operation determines that the crane with the general performance have the ability to stand the test.
3, The small loading capacity and rare operation frequency. If so, the price can be considered as an important factor. Purchase the crane with low price. In this way, not only the operation can be guaranteed but also saving the production cost. However this choice is just limited to the small loading capacity.
4, The large loading capacity and high operation frequency. Make the budget according to the company’s financial status. If it’s good, choose the high price and good quality. Contrary choose the private enterprise enjoying the good reputation in line with the item 2. Remember that if the financial is not good, it is also unreasonable just thinking about the price. It should be considered completely about the performance and regret buying it.
5, If the lifted object is large capacity, high operation frequency and valuable, you need to just consider the quality in this condition,
