Magco Cranes

In workshops where part utilization of shop bay is required (as in a tool room attached to a press shop), a Semi-Goliath/Gantry Crane is used. In such a configuration one end-carriage of the crane will travel on the regular gantry rail while the opposite end-carriage will travel on a rail mounted typically on the ground or at a lower elevation.A Goliath/Gantry Crane is typically more expensive than an equivalent EOT Bridge Crane. However in almost all the relevant cases as mentioned above, a cost analysis shows that it is cheaper to go in for a Goliath / Gantry Crane as against a Bridge Crane. The cost analysis can be done by taking into consideration the following -

Cost of Gantry Girders that are required in case of a Bridge CraneCost of Columns required for supporting the above Gantry GirdersDifference in costs of civil foundation for columns (for Bridge Cranes) versus civil foundation for gantry rails (in Goliath / Gantry Cranes)Difference in Down Shop Leads cost of Bridge Crane versus Cable Reeling Drum and Cable Cost for a Goliath / Gantry CraneGoliath / Gantry Cranes can be either of the Single Girder type or Double Girder type.

If required, Magco Cranes can advise end users of the type of crane to be installed based on a cost benefit analysis.

DOUBLE GIRDER BRIDGE CRANESform a major chunk of orders received by Magco Cranes annually. As a result, the company has successfully managed to refine this particular product over time to reflect changing customer needs and evolving technology.
The figure above shows a Double Girder Bridge crane with Auxiliary Hoist. Magco Cranes manufactures Double Girder Bridge cranes without the auxiliary hoisting feature also. Depending on the spans of the factory sheds, the Double Girder Bridge Crane can come either with a Single Drive system or a Twin Drive system.
Magco Cranes also makes cranes that have a cabin control feature as is seen in the picture on the left above.
Depending on the Safe Working Load of the crane, the Double Girder Bridge Cranes have either a carriage type travelling mechanism or a bogey type travelling mechanism.
