Paraguay EPS Sandwich Panel Factory Crane project Case Study
Overhead crane introduction
Overhead Cranes also named Bridge Cranes or Electrical Overhead Traveling (EOT) Cranes is kind of industrial lifting equipment, which is widely used in various industrial applications for material handling to improve working efficiency and safety. According to the material handling purpose and structure, the overhead crane can mainly be classified into the following type, Low Headroom single girder overhead crane QDY Ladle Overhead Crane, Single Girder Suspension overhead Crane, Double Girder Electric Hoist Crane, Explosion Proof Bridge Crane, Explosion-proof Single Girder Overhead Crane, Electromagnetic Overhead Crane, Single Girder Electric Hoist Crane up, Overhead Crane With Hook, Grab Bucket Overhead crane machine, Insulation Overhead Crane and Double Trolley Overhead Crane, etc.
Among the various overhead cranes, how to choose the optimal one for your applications? It depends on your factory conditions and material handling requirements. What if your working area is limited, you need relatively larger working space for material handling? How to solve the trouble? Now let’s see how DQCRANES solves the problem and see the Paraguay EPS sandwich panel factory crane project case study.
Customer’s company profile
The Paraguay client is a manufacturer of thermal sandwich panels. They have several thermal sandwich panel production lines, which has certain influence in their local market.

Lifting requirements
During the sandwich panel production, they need to move coils of steel sheet for stocking and for placing them in a continuous production line for EPS sandwich panel. Here comes the question: The factory has been built up within the wall with the height around 1.2 m which limits the working area of material handling. In order make the most of the working space, the client requires that the bucket should be set up closely against the wall. How to realize these requirements? See our solution diagram below:

Material handling solution
Based on the working conditions and lifting requirements, DQCRANES recommended the Paraguay client the 10 ton single girder overhead crane, with a special designed bucket, at the corners the foundations of which are narrowed down to 1/4 of the normal size and special materials and additional bolts are used to ensure the stability and safety (Seen the designing drawing above).

The single girder overhead crane can help the client to lift and move the coil of steel plates and the specially designed foundation can largely save space for the crane. At same time, the safety and stability of the overhead crane is guaranteed. The lifting requirements of the client are perfectly satisfied.
