The QZ Type Grab Bucket Bridge Crane is a specialized type of overhead crane designed for the efficient grabbing and handling of bulk materials. It replaces the traditional hook with a grab system, making it particularly suitable for processing granular materials such as ore powder, coal, coke, limestone, sand, and gravel. Its design is typically capable of adapting to harsh working conditions, including high temperatures and dusty environments.
This crane is primarily composed of a box-section bridge girder, a grab trolley (which includes the hoisting and opening/closing mechanisms), the bridge traveling mechanism, an operator's cab (which can also support ground or remote control operation), and an electrical control system.
Main Features of the QZ Type Grab Bucket Overhead Crane:
High Efficiency: The QZ grab crane typically employs a double-drum four-rope grab system. This system uses two ropes to control the opening and closing of the grab, and the other two for supporting and hoisting. This allows for complex actions like opening, closing, and lifting, enabling material handling at any height with high operational efficiency.
Robust Heavy-Duty Design: Designed specifically for heavy-duty applications, it features a high work class (A6-A8). Key components such as the motor, gearbox (reducer), and brakes are reinforced to withstand the frequent and demanding operational cycles of a grab bucket crane.
Operational Flexibility: It offers multiple control options, including operator cabin, floor-operated pendant control (push-button station), or wireless remote control. The grab's opening direction can be configured to be parallel or perpendicular to the main girder to suit different site layouts.
Wide Adaptability: Suitable for use in both indoor and outdoor environments. For outdoor applications, protective measures such as weatherhoods for electrical systems are added, ensuring reliable operation in various working conditions.
Main Application Scenarios of the QZ Type Grab Bucket Overhead Crane:
Power & Energy Industry: Used in power plant coal yards and storage yards for the unloading, transferring, and blending of coal.
Metallurgy & Building Materials Industry: Employed in steel plants, cement plants, and metallurgical enterprises to handle raw materials like ore, limestone, mineral powder, and coke.
Ports & Freight Yards: Utilized at terminals, railway freight yards, and large-scale warehouses for ship loading/unloading, wagon unloading, and stockpile transfer operations of bulk cargo.
Chemical & Coal Sector: Applied in chemical plants and coal bases for handling bulk materials such as sand, coal, and petroleum coke.
-
Main Girder: Double box-welded, national camber compliant. High-quality Welding: Lincoln welding, NDT-verified. Reinforced Strength: Ribs for enhanced strength/torsional resistance, complex-structure compatible. -
Crane Trolley The final drive gear is made of heat-treated carbon steel with higher strength; Precision needle bearings are used in high-load areas, which have lower friction coefficient and longer service life. -
End Girder: Welded with rectangular tubes/high-quality steel plates. Bolt Connection: Bolted to main girder. Buffers: Equipped at both ends. Pulleys & Bearings: Ensure smooth trolley operation, reduce wear. -
Grab Bucket The grab bucket can be opened and closed at any height. The grab bucket is only suitable for granular materials in their natural state, as well as underwater materials or special materials. Please specify when ordering. -
Cabin Control Modern cabin controls with Air conditioning isolate operator from harsh environment.
