Receiving goods

When the customer receives the lifting equipment, the following needs to be checked:

  • Inspection-Check whether the list is compared with the physical object (whether the quantity of the goods is complete, whether the parts are damaged, and whether the random information is complete.)

What preparation plans will DGCRANE make for you before installation?

1. Pre-installation planning: Blueprint

drawings

Before installation, our engineers and installation masters should communicate with you the following details to facilitate the smooth progress of the installation, including:

  • Review of plant building drawings:Carefully check the building design blueprint to ensure that the key structural dimensions of the plant meet the requirements of the crane installation dimensions
  • List of materials and equipment:During the whole process of crane installation, the installer listed a complete list of necessities.
  • Installation schedule:Installers need a clear timetable to avoid delays in ongoing construction.
  • Installation notice:Confirm the installation schedule, personnel cooperation (mechanical and electrical engineers, technical guidance during the installation process), planning progress, construction safety, and cleaning up the site; at the same time, it is necessary to investigate the on-site environment (preparation of installation tools, determine the power supply voltage of the buyer’s installation site, to ensure that the customer has the basic conditions required for installation.)

On-site review:Local situation

Check local situation

The installers will make relevant preparations before installing the crane to ensure that the installation vehicles and machinery and equipment can pass freely and ensure the smooth progress of the installation.Key considerations include:

  • Check the matching degree of the customer’s local power lines, power supplies and products.
  • The status of the pavement on the installation site.
  • Roof and plumbing system.
  • Overhead lamps.
  • Preparation of welding equipment.
  • We will ensure with every customer the basic conditions for installing the crane.

Before the crane is installed, the installation conditions that must be met: the cleaning of the installation site, the preparation of safety facilities, the provision of power supply conditions, the preparation of installation equipment, the preparation for the installation of the trolley track and the trolley power supply slip line, etc.

Hazard identification: Safety first

Hazard identification

  • This step involves identifying potential hazards that may interrupt the installation process, such as:
  • Electrical hazard
  • Mechanical hazard
  • Extreme temperature or chemical exposure
  • Precautions for aerial work
  • Any other risks that the installer deems relevant

Load test

Load test

After the installation of the bridge crane is completed, it is time for the load test.The test steps are as follows:

  • Operation experiment of hoist, crane beam, crane trolley
  • Safety device function check
  • Load test of 125% of the rated lifting weight of the crane
  • Always keep load test records easy to access for future reference.
  • Load test, dynamic load test (1h) and static load test (3*10 min), mainly check whether the functions of each mechanism and transmission can be operated.

How to install? Assembly steps of overhead crane

Assembly steps of overhead crane

The first step in installation is to ensure that on-site safety protection measures are in place, check whether the installation of the crane beam is in good condition, and then implement the installation.
STEP1:Pre-installed
STEP2:Assembly and installation
STEP3:Testing and final adjustment
