Bridge Crane Assisted Sheet Metal Processing Workshop
The shape, size, and weight of the parts that need to be handled by the lifting machinery in the sheet metal processing workshop are usually completely different. Therefore, the requirements for the crane system required for material handling are very high.

Firstly, the parts that need to be transported in the sheet metal workshop are mainly steel plates of various sizes. So a bridge crane with linkage control for lifting steel plates and as many uses as possible is needed. To ensure timely provision of boards of different sizes for the cutting machine system. Secondly, the sheet metal workshop also needs to bulk transport components that have been cut to smaller sizes according to the set dimensions. To achieve efficient assembly line operations. Therefore, the components in the sheet metal workshop need to be transported at two height levels.
The bridge crane provides steel plates for the cutting machine on the upper level, while the station light crane provides gradually smaller steel plate components for each processing machine at lower heights. The lifting machinery at two height levels needs to work together to efficiently. And continuously transport steel plates of various sizes to different workstations such as cutting, polishing, and straightening.
A steel structure manufacturing company in Germany has installed SEVENCRANE's V-beam bridge crane in its newly expanded factory building. Three V-beam cranes with the same span are used to transport steel plate materials taken out of the warehouse. Two of them are single beam cranes. And one is double beam crane, with lifting capacities of 10 tons and 12.5 tons respectively. The V-beam design of the crane ensures its high load-bearing capacity and low self weight. And this design also reduces load oscillation during operation.

The operation of the large and small cars of the three V-beam cranes is designed with variable frequency control of stepless speed regulation. Variable frequency control significantly reduces the load swing of the crane during longitudinal operation. All V-beam cranes are equipped with safety control systems. The system can continuously monitor the function and operation status of the crane, and can also enable two hoists to achieve linkage control on double or single beams to lift longer steel plates.
