The structure of a single girder gantry crane is a strong and efficient system designed for lighter to medium-duty lifting tasks. Understanding its key components, such as the main girder, legs, hoist, and end trucks, helps operators maximize the crane's performance, ensure smooth operation, and extend its service life. A clear grasp of the crane's structure enables users to operate with confidence, minimize maintenance needs, and enhance overall safety and productivity.
Gantry Structure
- Composition
- Main beam: Constructed from Box Beam or I-Beam.
- Legs: Welded from Q235B or Q355B steel.
- End beam: Welded from Q235B or Q355B steel.
- Functions
- Supports the entire crane structure.
- Transmits loads during operation.
- Connects to the rails for stable movement.
- Structural Feature
- Asymmetric structure, lightweight design, strong scenario-specific applicability.
Lifting Mechanism
- Composition
- Primarily includes an electric hoist, which contains a motor, reducer, and steel wire rope/chain.
- Function
- Drives the vertical lifting and lowering of materials via the motor.
- Serves as the core execution component for completing handling operations.
Electrical System
- Composition
- Includes motors, reducers, brakes, and control boxes.
- Function
- Precisely controls lifting and moving actions to ensure operational safety.
- Advantages
- High intelligence level for automated operation.
- Strong protection performance against electrical faults and environmental factors.
- Convenient maintenance for reduced downtime and cost.
Cabin(Optional)
- Location
- Typically positioned on top of the main beam or legs for optimal visibility.
- Function
- Controls crane operations, monitors parameters, ensures operator safety and comfort.
- Configurations
- Equipped with control handles, buttons, displays, air conditioning, etc. Some models support intelligent monitoring or explosion-proof designs.
Operating Mechanism
- Wheels:
- Directly contact the rails or ground to support the weight of the gantry crane and drive the equipment to move.
- End Beams:
- Connect the bottoms of the two side legs, distributing the weight of the legs and main beam (including cargo loads) to the wheels and rails through the end beams.
- Rails (or Ground Foundation):
- Provide a running path for the wheels and bear the weight of the gantry crane and cargo loads.
Safety Devices
- Rubber buffer: Absorbs impact energy to avoid rigid collisions with surrounding objects or personnel.
- Audio-visual alarm: Emits light and sound warnings during startup or abnormal conditions to alert nearby personnel.
- Overload protector: Monitors lifting weight and cuts off power when overloaded to prevent structural damage or overturning.
- Contactor: Controls circuit on/off for crane operation and provides under-voltage/voltage-loss protection.
- Circuit breaker: Automatically trips to cut off power during overload, short-circuit, or under-voltage faults to prevent electrical accidents.
- Seamless slide wire: Ensures stable power supply with enclosed design to prevent electric shock and foreign matter interference.
- Cross limit switch: Restricts lifting height and travel range to prevent overhoisting and derailment.
- Emergency stop button: Instantly cuts off all power in emergencies to halt operation and minimize risks.
Choosing the right crane is crucial to improving operational efficiency and safety. At Shanghai Hexin, our team can help you select the most suitable crane system based on your specific lifting requirements. Feel free to contact us for expert advice or a detailed quote.

Of course, we also offer a customized service.To provide you with the most accurate and tailored design solution, please share the following details:
- Lifting Capacity: Specify the maximum weight the crane needs to lift to design a safe and efficient load-bearing system.
- Span Length (Rail Center to Rail Center): Provide the distance between the centers of the two rails, which affects the overall structural design and stability of the crane.
- Lifting Height (Hook Center to Ground): Indicate the height the hook needs to reach from the ground to determine the appropriate girder or leg height.
- Rail Installation: Confirm whether rails are already installed; if not, specify the required rail length for a complete system plan.
- Power Supply: State the voltage of the power source, influencing the design of electrical components and wiring.
- Working Conditions: Describe the types of materials to be lifted and ambient temperature to select suitable materials, coatings, and mechanical specifications.
- Workshop Drawing/Photo: Share drawings or photos of the workshop (if available) to help tailor the crane design to your space and layout.
