E.O.T Cranes by K2 Cranes, leading overhead crane manufacturers in Tamilnadu
An electric Overhead Travelling (EOT) cranes is the most commonly preferred crane that is used in load lifting and shifting in factories. They have the parallel runways and the gap is spanned by a travelling bridge. The hoist is mounted on this bridge. These cranes can be operated electrically.
Single Girder
Single Girder Cranes consist of one box girder supported by End truck on each side and it is suitable for lifting & shifting load from 250kg to 15 Ton upto 30M span. Single Girder cranes can be either top running or under running in design.
Single Girder cranes are very convenient for low or medium load and medium height level. Its main advantage is that there is low dead weight and reduces cost. Its maintenance charges are also not so much comparing to other cranes.
Double Girder Cranes
Double girder cranes consist of two torsion-free box girders. This makes double girder cranes especially suitable for lifting and transporting loads over 10 Ton and for span of more than 25M. Double girder overhead cranes are available with load capacities up to 200 Ton and with spans up to 40 M.
On a double girder crane, there are two girder beams that make up the bridge and they’re supported by an end truck on each side. In most instances, the trolley and hoist run on a rail installed on top of the bridge girders.
Double girder cranes can be either top running or under running in design. A top running double girder bridge crane will provide the most overhead room, as well as the greatest hook height.
Double girder cranes are recommended for heavy-duty applications where the crane has to handle heavier capacities and longer spans.
Double Girder bridge cranes are ideal for lifting heavy loads and can be used in more frequent operation than a single girder crane. They can also be used both indoors and outdoors, in a bridge or gantry setup, and are frequently used in mining, iron and steel production, railyards, and shipping ports.
Goliath Cranes by K2 Cranes, leading overhead crane manufacturers in Tamilnadu
A Goliath Crane (also known as Gantry Cranes) is a kind of overhead crane having a single or double girder establishment supported by separate legs that move on wheels or rail system or along a track. The movement in the lifting axis is carried out by a special high-torque motor mounted on the girders which has a high load carrying capacity.
Gantry cranes are used for an outdoor application or beneath overhead crane system. Gantry cranes are aptly designed to manage high-volume lifts and offer a well-organized means of lifting or moving heavy loads.
These are specially designed for Heavy Machinery Manufacturing, automobile industry, outdoor yard, like steel yards, rail yards, scrap yards and shipping and container yards.
Semi Goliath Cranes
Semi-Goliath cranes consist of a horizontal lifting beam or beams supported by one floor mounted rail (similar to those used in traditional Gantry Crane designs) and also one raised rail, like those used in overhead crane systems.
Semi Goliath crane is also an ideal supplement in an outdoor application where the outer side of the existing building can be used to mount the gantry rails.
Underslung Cranes
Underslung cranes are proven to maximize customer floor space and mobility. The cranes are typically attached to the existing roof structure—columns to support the crane runway are not needed. The installation of stand-alone steel superstructures also enables the solution to be flexible to production requirements.
If you require a lifting system for an application where the available headroom is limited, an underslung crane could be the ideal solution. While the end carriages which support the horizontal beam or girder of most overhead cranes typically run-on top of the gantry rails, they are located underneath underslung cranes.
LCS – Light Crane System
LCS is easily operable light crane system boosting production efficiency. It reduces workloads in installation and relocation and it requires only light force to operate keeping work safe and ergonomic.
Light Crane System transfer loads along smooth, three-dimensional lines.
Jib Cranes
A jib crane is a type of overhead lifting device that’s often used in a smaller work cell area for repetitive and unique lifting tasks. Jib cranes are extremely versatile and can also be paired with overhead bridge cranes to maximize production.
Jib cranes are fairly simple in design but can have capacities ranging anywhere from 250kg. to 20 tons in some applications.
It consists of a pillar fixed to the wall or mounted on the floor. The pillar supports a horizontal jib or boom which has a movable hoist.
The most commonly used jib crane is the self-supported, floor mounted type. Jib cranes are extremely important in all kind of lifting processes because it relieves the overhead crane of much work and reduces the waiting time.
A-Frame
A-Frame Cranes are portable, lightweight, and affordable lifting solutions with sturdy A-frame designs.
A-frame cranes are slight variation of regular Gantry cranes aimed at lifting light or medium capabilities. A-frame can be adopted for both indoor and outdoor application.
A-frame can be used for two options:
Mobile A-Frame crane – It can be wheeled between locations are required.
Fixed A –Frame Crane – Static A-frame gantry crane systems, which compensate for a lack of mobility with increased strength for heavier capacities.
Hoists
K2 Cranes offers electrically operated Single Girder and Double Girder wire rope hoists.
These hoists are manufactured at K2’s modern manufacturing facility and offer customers the best in technology.
K2 Hoists Single Girder
K2 Cranes offers electrically operated Single Girder wire rope hoists. These hoists are manufactured at K2’s modern manufacturing facility and offer customers the best in technology. Capacity for hoists range from 500 kg – 100 Tons and can be offered in single speed / dual speed design. Where space is a constraint hoist of Low Head Room type (LHR) can be offered to meet specific customer’s requirement.
The hoist gear boxes are 3 stage helical gear box and the hoist motor is with IP 54 / 55 enclosures. The standard design incorporates DC Electro Magnet Disc brakes and the hoists come fitted with protective rope guide. Overload protection by means of limit switches and other electrical means is offered.
Besides the standard speed, faster lifting speeds can also be considered for specific customer applications. The open design for hoists component assures customers the ease of maintenance and easy accessibility to all hoist parts (refer figure above). The cross-travel trolleys are so designed to accommodate available sizes of mono rails or standard I beam. These hoists are also suitable for fitting onto under-slung cranes.
All electrical components are of reputed make and are easily available for replacement. The main operating voltages are 3 phase, 415 volts and 50 HZ.
K2 Hoists Double Girder
It is a combination of fixed mounted-type with the double-rail trolley and is operated on the Double girder. The high-efficient lifting and travelling system, which ensure electric hoist good performance, safe and reliable.
The application of new technology such as frequency conversion control, braking energy feedback and safety monitoring system makes the wire rope electric hoist the leading position in the industry.
ZX Wire Rope Hoists by K2 Cranes, leading overhead crane manufacturers in Tamilnadu
ZX low headroom wire rope hoist with single monorail trolley – Capacities up to 15 Ton.
This extensive range of low headroom monorail hoists are mounted on a single trolley with four flangeless wheels and guide rollers, designed to run on the bottom flange of a single beam or girder. A reaction roller obviates the need for a counterweight thus reducing the wheel loads. This construction provides a higher top hook position in a restricted headroom compared to a hoist of standard headroom construction.
