Truss gantry crane is suitable for carrying out small and heavy duty lifting work in a variety of outdoor areas such as port, railway, shipyard and quay. The truss structure is designed to prevent the attack of strong winds and storms. Therefore, the truss type gantry crane has numerous advantages such as light weight, low cost, small wheel pressure and excellent wind resistance. With regard to different girder constructions, the truss gantry lifting equipment can be classified into single girder and double girder.
We manufacture multiple types of gantry cranes to serve a wide range of applications. We are also capable of designing customized gantry lifting system for your special needs. Contact us now to get a free quotation.
Truss Gantry Crane Types
Our truss gantry cranes are designed to cater to individual lifting applications of customers. This truss type gantry crane falls in two main configurations including single girder crane and double girder crane. Each type can be built with certain designs as needed.
