Gantry Crane Uses and Transport

Gantry cranes are built on top of gantry, held in place to facilitate overhead shipping and straddling a workplace or excavation site. Gantry cranes take their name from the gantry, the structure that is used to straddle the work area. They can range in size from the huge full gantry crane, which can lift extremely heavy containers, to smaller models for light or medium weight loads. The Taisun, the biggest gantry crane in the world, can lift an amazing 20,000 metric tons. Ship-to-shore gantry cranes are used at many port terminals to load and unload fully loaded shipping containers from ships. Many different industries use gantry cranes, from manufacturing to construction.

Ensuring that gantry cranes are in proper working order means that all parts need to flow smoothly. Downtime for a crane can bring an entire shift to a halt, so when shipping an overhead crane, protecting the machinery is critical. Experts can make sure that your machinery is protected during shipping. Transporting a gantry crane means it's first disassembled into the runners and the bridge. Careful care is taken to protect the moving parts, and tarps are provided when necessary. The versatile shipping fleet at Heavy Haulers allows us to perfectly match the dimensions of your gantry crane to our fleet. All of our dispatchers, drivers, and riggers are certified, insured, and licensed for heavy equipment transport. We choose only experienced, reliable drivers for our trucks.
