Customized Lifting Equipment Improves Safety In Train Manufacturing Workshops

 Customized equipment can precisely meet the specific needs of the factory floor. This means that the design, load capacity, operation mode, etc. of the equipment can be adjusted according to the actual conditions of the workshop, thereby better adapting to the working environment and reducing risks in operation. In our work, almost all customer needs are met through customized solutions. This case uses a customized case of a train equipment manufacturing workshop in the UK to demonstrate how customized lifting equipment plays a role in the safety field.

Customized lifting equipment for train equipment manufacturers

The customized equipment, which includes lifting lugs, adjustable lifting plates, clamps and machined lifting, is used daily for installing doors and windows as well as lifting body shells and entire cars.

The fabrication shop, which currently operates two 25-ton overhead cranes as well as smaller gantry cranes, required bespoke equipment to help ensure all lifting procedures are carried out as safely as possible.

The train equipment that needs to be lifted during workshop work weighs 8.0 tons for the body shell alone, and the entire vehicle can weigh more than 40 tons. This process can be very dangerous if something goes wrong with the lifting equipment. This is why custom-made lifting equipment is needed to optimize the safety of lifting operations.

It should be noted that the equipment provided to the British train manufacturer is a British lifting equipment supplier. With changes in legislation due to Brexit they needed to have the correct UK certification other than CE so they needed a UK specialist who could provide this service.

Advantages of customized lifting equipment and services we can provide

• Meet your needs precisely: Customized equipment can precisely meet the specific needs of the factory floor. This means that the design, load capacity, operation mode, etc. of the equipment can be adjusted according to the actual conditions of the workshop, thereby better adapting to the working environment and reducing risks in operation.
• Efficient human-computer interaction: Customized equipment usually pays more attention to the design of human-computer interaction. By optimizing the control interface, operation buttons, etc., the operation is made easier and more intuitive, and the possibility of operation errors is reduced. At the same time, fine-tuning can also be made based on the operator’s habits and feedback to further improve the safety and efficiency of the operation.
• Adapt to special environments: The environment in the factory workshop may be complex and changeable, such as high temperature, humidity, dust, etc. Customized equipment can better adapt to these special environments. By selecting durable materials and special protective measures, it can ensure that the equipment can still operate stably in harsh environments and avoid safety accidents caused by equipment failure.
• Flexibility and scalability: Customized equipment usually has strong flexibility and scalability. As factory production scale expands or processes change, equipment can be adjusted or expanded accordingly to meet new needs. This flexibility allows the equipment to adapt to changes on the shop floor over time, avoiding safety hazards caused by equipment that is outdated or does not meet needs.

We have experienced engineers. When providing customized lifting equipment to customers, we need to clarify what kind of lifting equipment your factory workshop needs. Consider factors such as the weight, size, shape of the lifted object and the frequency of lifting. This will help determine the required lifting capacity, type, size and configuration.

If the working environment is complex, the environmental conditions of the factory workshop, such as temperature, humidity, dust, corrosive gases, etc., need to be considered at the same time. These factors may have an impact on the materials and performance of the lifting equipment. Choose equipment that can adapt to these environmental conditions to ensure long-term stable operation.
