Crane girder transportation
Due to the crane girder is long and heavy, the transportation plan will be decided beforehand. As for the crane girder transportation, Dongqi Crane has the following solutions which will selected by the clients before crane manufacturing:
Fabricate the crane girder at whole when the length of the crane is not so long.
Fabricate the crane girders into two or three parts, when necessary, which can be assembled at the location.
Notice : Many clients will misunderstand the divided crane girders, actually crane girder division for transportation convenience is technically allowed and will not affect the performance of cranes. We have experience too many cases with divided crane girders, so please do not let this worry prevent you going forward.
Traffic rules of destination countries
As for overhead crane transport, the traffic rules of the destination countries should be considered. Since different countries have different traffic rules, therefore, it is better to confirm from the traffic department about the truck length limit before fabricating the crane girders;
In China, the longest truck is 17.5 m, which can transport more than 30 m length crane girders, several days ago, we just delivered a crane with 32 m length crane girder.

Cargo handling capacity of ports
Another notice is that, some ports also have limit of handling capacity of cargoes, maybe the port can’t handle more than 30 m length crane girders, so except to confirm the traffic limit, port information is also very important to get known.
