Zinc Pot Crane
The zinc pot crane is a high-temperature overhead crane designed specifically for galvanising shops. It is mainly used to lift zinc pots (empty), for equipment maintenance and for transferring hot red-hot material. Unlike a conventional overhead crane, its trolley carries a cantilever perpendicular to the main girder, extending beyond the girder so that lifting can be done vertically, widening the working coverage and eliminating blind spots. The effective cantilever length is defined as the horizontal distance from the centre line of the cantilever-side girder track to the centre of the hook.
Type test specification: QDXG
Type test product name: General Purpose Overhead Crane
Advantages & features
- 01
High-precision drive and speed control systems allow smooth speed regulation of hoisting and travel, with accurate speed and position control when handling zinc pot components, reducing impact and sway and avoiding damage to the pot and nearby equipment.
- 02
Single or double girder overhead structure with a custom design that accommodates a large lifting height and easily covers the whole pot maintenance area. The main and end girders use high-strength steel with precise mechanical calculation and optimised design, ensuring load-bearing capacity for lifting the pot and heavy maintenance components while reducing dead weight and energy consumption.
- 03
Key components such as gears, wheels, drums and shafts are made of alloy steel for wear resistance and impact resistance, manufactured in-house to a closed-loop design, extending service life by more than 20%.
