Your Essential Guide to Crane Parts for Safe and Efficient Operations
Trolley End Stop
A crucial safety feature that prevents the trolley from traveling beyond its designated range, ensuring secure operations.
Bridge Rail
Provides a stable track for the crane bridge to move smoothly and efficiently across the workspace.
Idler Girder
Supports the crane’s structure and maintains balance during operations, ensuring stability.
Hoist
The lifting mechanism, capable of raising and lowering loads with precision, using chains or wire ropes.
Trolley Frame
Holds and supports the hoist, facilitating controlled movement along the girder.
Upper Block
Part of the hoist assembly, it works with the wire rope or chain for effective load lifting.
Trolley Bumper
Protects the trolley by absorbing impacts, minimizing damage, and enhancing safety.
Bridge Idler Wheel
Enables smooth and guided movement of the crane bridge along the rails.
End Truck
Connects the bridge to the runway and allows for seamless crane movement along the tracks.
Runway Beam
The structural support beam on which the end trucks travel, ensuring stability.
Bridge Drive Wheel
Facilitates the powered movement of the crane bridge along its designated path.
Endtruck Bumper
Absorbs shock at the end of the runway, enhancing safety and reducing wear.
Runway Rail
Tracks that guide the end trucks for smooth and precise crane operations.
Bridge Drive
The powered system responsible for moving the bridge along the runway.
Hook Block
The load-handling assembly that ensures secure attachment to the lifted material.
Wire Rope
A durable lifting medium used in hoists, offering strength and flexibility for heavy loads.
Pendant
A handheld control device that allows operators to manage crane functions with ease.
Pendant Cable
The connection linking the pendant control to the crane, transmitting commands.
Pendant Feston
Organizes and supports the pendant cable for unrestricted movement along the crane.
Trolley Feston
Supports and protects power cables, enabling the trolley’s seamless movement.
Trolley Drive
The motorized system that powers the trolley’s movement along the crane bridge.
Trolley Conductor Track
Provides a reliable electrical supply for the trolley’s operations.
Pendant Track
Guides and organizes the pendant cable for effective control and easy access.
Downshop Conductors
Electrical conductors supplying power along the crane’s operating area.
Drive Girder
A critical structural element housing the drive components, ensuring smooth operations.
