1)Bridge Crane Cost Less Solution: Pakistan Bridge Crane Project

As for customers, Dongqi Hoist and Crane is delicated to offer lifting solution with less bridge crane cost and try to lower the overhead bridge crane price on the condition of ensuring of bridge crane quality.

In the year of 2014, one of Pakistan clients came to Dongqi Hoist and Crane for an affordable low cost bridge overhead crane solution. After thorough understanding to the lifting requirement and application conditions, Dongqi Hoist and Crane and the Pakistan client worked out a low price bridge crane scheme that the main beams of the bridge crane were manufactured locally. Dongqi Hoist and Crane provided the design drawings of the bridge crane main beam in 2D or 3D models for client to do production in their local workshop. On the drawings, the key technical points were listed, to make sure all the parameters were right for the bridge crane to make sure the efficiency of bridge crane.

In the scheme, the bridge crane cost is much less. Why the overhead bridge crane price is lowered? The reasons for bridge crane cost less are as follow:

  • Shipping charges of bridge crane main beam is saved.
  •  Main beam production of bridge crane is completely controlled.
  • The tariff is lowered and saved due to the local production of bridge crane main beam.
  • Training cost is saved. During the production, Dongqi Hoist and Crane helped the client to learn more bridge crane knowledge which is much helpful for crane operation and maintenance in the future.

Now the bridge cranes are operated well in the workshop of client with their local manufactured main beams. What’s more, we are working together to develop the local market for bridge crane and gantry crane sales, and Dongqi Hoist and Crane is working on setting offices in different districts to do after sales service and provide face to face solutions.

The design of box girder improves the performance of I-beam type at same time the cost is a little. higher than I-beam type but cheaper than European standard type.

Reasons for Cost Less are:

  • Special box girder design lower production cost.
  • Durable performance saves cost in the long run.

5) Bridge Crane Cost Less Solution: Bridge gantry crane solution

If the workshop space is big enough and without support columns, the cost for a bridge gantry crane is less than install a bridge crane.

One Ethiopia client wants to modify his old warehouse to install bridge crane. In order to install the bridge crane, the support columns and bearing beams needs to be installed first, which costs 1.5 times higher than that bridge gantry crane. However, he says there would be two production lines with machineries on both sides of the warehouse, it is more convenient to install bridge crane; finally he decides to build a new warehouse to install bridge crane.

Price is important, but Dongqi Hoist and Crane will suggest cost less solution on the base of exact working condition. If there is no production lines in the warehouse, bridge gantry crane will be a better solution.
