Industrial Crane Design
Learn crane and hoisting machine design with Schneider Electric architectures and Bill of Materials
Designing a Crane : Typical Basic Architecture
This suggested simple architecture proposes a basic electro-mechanical 2 speed system controlling the vertical load movement and a double speed motor and standard speed drive for the horizontal movement.
Warning : Hoisting machines are considered dangerous and need specific attention according to local standards and directives.
Technical Benefits of this Architecture
- Wireless pendant for ergonomic and simple operator load control
- Simple and easy drive configuration of horizontal movements
- Worldwide multi standard electro-mechanical components
- Load “time delay control” feature (adjustable single height antisway)
- Simple wiring and reduced cost with embedded travel limit switches management
- Long lifespan in tough hoisting environments, thanks to reliable robust Schneider Electric parts
Technical Features of this Architecture
- Simple economic robust flexible design and reliable architecture
- Easy installation and on-site commissioning
- Smooth operation movement reduces metal fatigue on mechanical structure and improves machine durability
- Simple maintenance and diagnostics, requiring only basic electrical skills reducing maintenance cost
- Readily available components through a Schneider Electric’s worldwide distribution network helping reduce machine downtime
