The Characteristics And Differences Of Rubber Tyred Gantry Cranes And Rail Mounted Gantry Cranes

Rubber tyred gantry cranes and rail mounted gantry cranes are two commonly used lifting equipment in gantry cranes and other large lifting equipment. So which one is more economical, practical, convenient and fast? Analyze the characteristics and differences between rubber tyred gantry cranes and rail mounted gantry cranes:

Gantry cranes are mainly used for outdoor cargo yard, stock yard cargo, and bulk cargo loading and unloading operations. Its metal structure is like a door-shaped frame, with two supporting feet installed under the main beam, which can walk directly on the track on the ground. And the two ends of the main beam can have outhanging cantilever beams. Gantry cranes have the characteristics of high site utilization, large operating range, wide adaptability and strong versatility. widely used in port freight yards. Rail mounted gantry cranes and rubber tyred gantry cranes are the two most widely used gantry cranes. When the factory purchases gantry cranes, which one is more economical? It is one of the most concerned issues of customers.

Rail mounted container gantry cranes have the advantages of energy saving and environmental protection, high reliability, large lifting capacity, small maintenance workload, and easy automatic operation. But its biggest disadvantage is that it is inconvenient to relocate.

Because the tyre gantry crane adopts tyre walking, the straddle carrier can be maneuverable and flexible, and can transfer operations.

Rail type: long service life, wide range of uses, is more common

Disadvantages: Since the track is regulated, the scope of use cannot be adjusted arbitrarily. The tire type is different.

Tyre type: It not only has the advantages of rail mounted gantry crane to improve the utilization rate and stacking capacity of the yard, but also has the advantages of flexible and flexible straddle carriers, and it has the advantages of low energy consumption, low maintenance costs, and environmental protection.

Disadvantages: high production cost, short tire service life, limited use space!
