Warehouse 10ton Single Beam Bridge Crane
Products Description
1.Single Girder Design
Uses a single bridge beam (main girder) supported by two end trucks.
More economical and lighter than a double girder crane, suitable for medium-duty applications.
2.Capacity
Rated for 10 metric tons (10,000 kg), making it ideal for warehouses, workshops, and manufacturing plants.
3.Span & Lifting Height
Span (width of coverage): Typically ranges from 5m to 25m, depending on building structure.
Lifting Height: Adjustable (usually 6m to 18m), based on facility needs.
4.Hoisting Mechanism
Equipped with an electric hoist (chain or wire rope) that travels along the bridge beam.
Common brands include Konecranes, Demag, ABUS, or CMCO.
5.Control System
Pendant control (wired remote) or radio remote control for safe and precise operation.
Can be integrated with variable frequency drives (VFDs) for smoother movement.

Pictures & Components
1.Main beam
Main Beam Structure & Design
1)Type: Single girder (usually European-style box girder or I-beam design).
2)Material: Made of high-quality steel (Q235B/Q345B) for strength and durability.
3)Construction:
Welded box girder (most common for 10-ton capacity) – Provides rigidity and resists bending.
Reinforced ribs inside to prevent deformation under heavy loads.
Machined rails (or tracks) on the bottom flange for smooth trolley movement.
2.Lifting System
1)Safety Features
Overload Protection: Cuts power if >110% load detected.
Limit Switches: Prevents over-hoisting/lowering.
Double Braking: Primary + secondary brakes.
Anti-Sway Control (Optional): Reduces load swing.
2)How It Works (Step-by-Step)
Operator Input: Uses pendant/remote to activate hoist.
Motor Engagement: Powers the drum/chain sprocket.
Lifting/Lowering: Wire rope/chain winds/unwinds.
Trolley Movement: Hoist traverses beam via trolley motor.
Precision Placement: VFD ensures smooth positioning.

3.End carriage
1)Drive Configurations
Single Drive (One Motor):
Only one end truck is motorized (cost-effective for small spans).
Requires a tie rod to synchronize movement.
Dual Drive (Two Motors):
Both end trucks are motorized (better for spans >15m).
More precise control, less wheel slippage.
2)Safety & Alignment Features
Limit Switches: Stops crane at runway ends.
Anti-Climb Devices: Prevents derailment.
Lubrication System: Reduces wheel and rail wear.
Rail Sweepers: Clears debris from tracks.

8.Motor
The crane is equipped with three independent motor systems:
1) Lifting motor - responsible for the vertical lifting of 10 tons of weight
2) Trolley running motor - controls the horizontal movement of the hook device along the main beam
3) Trolley travel motor - drives the entire crane to move longitudinally along the track

.
9.Sound and light alarm system & limit switch
1)Sound and Light Alarm System
Purpose:
Provides visual and audible warnings to alert operators and nearby personnel of potential hazards or abnormal conditions during crane operation.
2)Limit Switches
Purpose:
Automatically stop or slow crane movement when it reaches preset boundaries to prevent collisions or over-travel.
