Application Of Bridge Crane And Automatic Hook In Construction Company Factory

 If there is a construction company that needs to purchase overhead cranes and automatic hooks, you can contact us. Today Dongqi Crane will share with you a case of custom-made bridge crane and automatic hook from a construction company. Through the sharing of this case, Dongqi Crane can enhance Dongqi Crane’s understanding of the purpose of bridge cranes among construction companies, and also make it easier for people who want to understand the purpose of cranes to see clearly the pros and cons of a crane.

Construction company customizes overhead crane and automatic hook to handle steel profiles

Arnauld Clausse is the head of the Panneaux (team) in Zone 2 of the I construction site, responsible for the safety of the contrisson and Haironville construction sites, which are located in the eastern part of Paris and are approximately 30 minutes away by car. These facilities are conveniently located and can distribute products to France and neighboring European countries. Klaus said, “My mission is to continuously improve the safety of the site. Part of our operations is to load steel sections onto trucks for transportation. As part of our efforts to continuously improve best practices, we are seeking a method of connecting and dismantling lifting straps without human intervention.”

The company mainly purchases 5 tons of hooks, but also has 10 tons and 20 tons of equipment. The three hooks are usually located on one side of the eight pick-up point drilling rig suspended below the overhead crane. Each magnetic hook attracts and positions a sling connected to the opposite rigging point, and wraps it around a bundled profile weighing between 50 kilograms and 5 tons.

The most common practice is to use only two hooks at both ends of the load, but Klaus explains that the central hook is an important component of the drilling rig because when only one sling is needed, it can independently handle smaller loads.

He added, “In all material handling operations, hooks do not require personnel to work at heights or near loads. They do not need to climb onto loads to prepare elevators, nor do they need to climb onto truck trailers to disconnect rigging equipment. For example, the hazards associated with falls or getting stuck in hands have been eliminated from our operations, so these hooks will be installed in other locations throughout France.”

The construction company uses a remote control, which includes a full-color liquid crystal display (LCD) that can provide users with various information about lifting applications, including weight, hook status, and alerts to operators for overload or imbalance.

What can we learn from this

In the field of crane services, most customers need to develop customized crane solutions based on their actual working environment. This is clearly the same in the construction industry. From this case, we can notice that the most important reason for customers to use automatic hooks is safety, which is a method of connecting and dismantling lifting straps without manual intervention. When used in conjunction with bridge cranes, it maximizes safety and efficiency. Based on these contents, we can summarize some key points to pay attention to when designing crane solutions for construction companies:
