20 Ton Overhead Crane Application Examples

20 Ton Double Girder EOT Crane for Billet Handling in Steel Plants

In the steel reinforcement production workshop of a steel plant, two 20-ton double-girder overhead cranes equipped with billet lifting devices are installed in the raw material bay, specifically responsible for handling continuous casting billets. These billets weigh approximately 2 tons each, measure 12 meters in length, and include both 700°C hot billets and room-temperature cold billets. Each crane lifts 8 billets (totaling 16.5 tons) to perform tasks such as loading, unloading, and stacking, ensuring the continuous production of 800,000 tons of hot-rolled steel reinforcement annually.

To withstand the high-temperature and high-intensity working environment, the cranes are equipped with heat-resistant lifting devices and fireproof cables. The main hook has a maximum load capacity of 20 tons, a span of 16 meters, and can operate at heights of up to 18 meters. With precise speed control and high-temperature resistance design, the cranes can quickly transport billets while adapting to the extreme conditions of 700°C hot billets. This ensures efficient and safe operation of the production line, meeting the steel industry’s demand for large-scale, high-stability raw material handling.

20 Ton European Double Girder Electric Hoist Crane for Paper Mills

In the production line of a paper mill, the 20 ton European double girder overhead crane with a wire rope hoist is primarily used for lifting large paper rolls, corrugated cardboard, and other heavy materials. The crane can be operated flexibly via pendant control or wireless remote control, meeting the needs of raw material transfer, finished product stacking, and equipment maintenance. Designed for A5 duty (moderate-intensity continuous operation), it ensures the efficient operation of the production line.

In daily use within the paper industry, the 20 ton crane typically handles loads ranging from 10 to 18 tons, adapting to various production requirements. Although the crane’s rated capacity is 20 tons, to ensure equipment stability and extend service life, prolonged full-load operation is generally avoided. Operators can flexibly adjust the lifting load based on production tasks to maintain efficient and safe working conditions.

The FEM standard overhead crane is equipped with a full variable frequency drive system, allowing flexible speed adjustment based on load and operational requirements. This effectively reduces mechanical stress during start-stop cycles, enhancing operational efficiency and extending equipment lifespan. Additionally, the crane features dual-speed lifting and traveling mechanisms, enabling operators to switch between fast and slow modes, significantly improving safety and precision during operations.

20 Ton Metallurgical Double Girder Overhead Crane for Foundry Workshops

In the foundry industry, the metallurgical double girder overhead crane is a core equipment for handling molten metal. The 20 ton metallurgical overhead crane is primarily responsible for key processes such as transferring and pouring 14-16 ton high-temperature ladles, as well as lifting and assembling 16-18 ton large sand molds.

To address the unique working conditions of the foundry industry, the metallurgical overhead crane incorporates several specialized designs: an insulation layer is installed beneath the main girder to effectively block high-temperature radiation; the lifting mechanism is equipped with overspeed protection and forward/reverse contactor fault protection to prevent runaway risks; and the entire crane uses high-temperature-resistant cables and conduits to ensure stable operation of the electrical system in dusty environments. Additionally, the crane can be configured with enclosed hooks and rolled sheaves to meet the high-temperature and high-load demands of molten metal handling. Its high-duty rating and multiple safety protection features significantly enhance the equipment’s reliability and safety in harsh environments, providing a solid foundation for efficient production in the foundry industry.

20 Ton Double Girder Grab Bucket Bridge Crane for Waste Handling Industry

In the waste handling industry, the 20 ton grab overhead crane is primarily used for grabbing, transferring, and stacking waste in storage pits. In waste-to-energy plants or landfills, the crane uses its grab bucket to collect loose municipal or industrial waste from the storage pit and transfer it to incinerators or compactors. It also performs waste stacking and sorting tasks, ensuring efficient operation of the waste treatment process. With a single grab capacity of 11 tons and a daily processing capacity of hundreds of tons, it meets the demands of large-scale waste handling. Thanks to its high-strength grabbing capability and precise control performance, the crane adapts to the complex composition and loose volume of waste, providing an efficient and reliable lifting solution for the waste treatment industry.
