Not to worry, here we can assist you in understanding and estimating the cost components involved in this process, providing you with a clearer grasp of overhead crane pricing. When it comes to overseas procurement of overhead cranes, the primary cost components include:

  • Power supply: Relates to the selection of electrical equipment.
  • Crane traveling length (L): Relates to the layout and planning of the power supply system, as well as the quantity of equipment on a set of running tracks.
  • Detailed working conditions of the crane: Relates to the selection of hoisting equipment and sometimes the fabrication process of the main beam.
  • How many hours does the crane need to work each day: Can help better match the type of equipment suitable for your work level.
  • Shall we provide you the crane traveling rails? Overhead cranes must be operated on railway, we can also provide the rails.
