Space-Efficient Design: LD VS LDC Overhead Crane

The “Space-Efficient Design” feature in a Low Headroom Overhead Crane is specifically tailored to operate in environments with low-clearance buildings. This design optimization is crucial for maximizing the available lifting height while working within confined spaces. Here are the key details of this feature:

ld vs ldc overhead crane

Installation Methods: The low headroom electric hoist is installed on the side of the main beam, with its wheels traveling along the lower flange of the main beam, while the CD and MD hoists hang from the lower flange of the main beam’s I-beam, with their wheels traveling along the lower flange of the I-beam. This difference in installation allows the low headroom electric hoist to provide a greater lifting height within limited vertical space.

Smaller Hook Upper Limit Dimensions: When compared with equipment of the same specifications, smaller upper limit dimensions for low headroom hoist hooks, the low headroom electric hoist offers a greater lifting height within limited vertical space than CD and MD hoists. This is particularly crucial in environments with restricted space, maximizing the utilization of limited space.

The space-efficient design of a Low Headroom EOT Crane is a critical feature that enables the crane to function optimally in low-clearance buildings. It addresses the challenges posed by limited vertical space, allowing for efficient material handling without compromising on lifting height or load capacity.

In a workshop with a building height of 5 meters, there is a need to install a single girder overhead crane with a 5 ton lifting capacity. The lifting height requirement is 3.2 meters, and the distance from the runway to the top of the crane must be less than 0.8 meters, work duty A3. The left and right limit dimensions of the hook need to be as small as possible.

Our professional engineers have analyzed 4 different single girder overhead crane solutions:

LD Electric Single Girder Overhead Crane

With the lowest price and generally decent performance, it is a widely used type of crane. However, in this case, the lifting height does not meet the requirements.

LDC Low Headroom Single Girder Overhead Crane

It maximizes the lifting height within limited space, the crane itself occupies a relatively small space and requiring less space from the runway to the factory ceiling. All parameters meet the requirements, and the price is moderate, making it a highly recommended solution.

LDP Offset Single Girder Overhead Crane

It occupies a large space, requires a greater distance from the runway to the factory ceiling, and has a relatively high overall price. The distance from the runway to the top of the crane does not meet the requirements.

HD European Standard Single Girder Overhead Crane

It maximizes the lifting height within limited space, the crane itself occupies a relatively small space, and offers better parameters compared to other single girder overhead cranes. However, it is more expensive.

Considering all factors, our engineers recommended the LDC low headroom overhead crane option to the customer. All parameters meet the requirements, and compared to the HD European standard single girder overhead crane, it is half the price, offering the best overall cost-effectiveness, the client is also satisfied with the solution.
