INTRODUCTION
A U-Type Double Girder Gantry Crane is a heavy-duty, rail-mounted crane featuring a double-girder bridge supported by "U"-shaped legs. By omitting the lower crossbeam found in conventional A-frame gantry cranes, its unique U-shaped leg configuration maximizes clearance, allowing bulky, long, or wide materials to pass smoothly between the legs without obstruction.
APPLICATION SCENARIO
Container Freight Stations & Inland Waterway Ports: Efficient stacking, loading, and unloading of 20ft, 40ft, and 45ft containers between truck chassis, railcars, and storage yards.
Railway Freight Hubs & Logistics Parks: Cross-track loading and transfer of heavy cargo, steel coils, and intermodal containers.
Shipyards & Wind Power Facilities: Transporting and assembling over-length structural components, ship sections, wind turbine blades, and tower segments.
Precast Concrete & Heavy Manufacturing Plants: Safe handling, flipping, and outdoor storage of long precast concrete beams, bridge girders, and heavy steel plates.
ADVANTAGES
Superior Clearance & Passage CapabilityUnobstructed Side Transfer: The U-frame leg design creates wide inner space, allowing containers or wide bulky items to pass through the legs smoothly without rotating or tilting.High Capacity & Broad Span CoverageHeavy-Duty Performance: Built with robust box-type double girders to support heavy lifting capacities (typically 10t to 50t+) and wide spans (up to 35m–50m+) with exceptional wind resistance.Versatile Spreader IntegrationEasily equipped with specialized lifting attachments, such as rotatable container spreaders, electromagnetic lifters, hydraulic grabs, or dual-hook trolleys.Optimized Logistics EfficiencyTransport vehicles (trucks and trailers) can drive directly into the crane area or pass through the legs, significantly shortening trolley travel distance and cycle times.
