Types of Crane
Tower
In construction operations, a tower crane is frequently employed. A tower crane is made up of a number of pieces that can be disassembled after operation for simple portability. These are often brought to the project site in pieces and erected there using a truck (trailer). Additionally, the process of installing a tower crane takes a long time because several components, such as the base for the crane, must be erected.
Truck
An on-truck crane makes it possible to transport heavy equipment straight to the job site without using a vehicle (trailer). When in use, the foundations (poles) of this crane can be fastened. This is done with the intention of balancing the crane while it is in operation.
Crawler
A crawler crane is a tool with a somewhat long reach that is frequently employed on building project sites. The chain wheel (crawler) on this crane may move when in use and is used on a variety of surfaces. The crawler crane is split into many pieces and then assembled at the project site before being delivered there on a truck trailer.
Hydraulic
Most cranes operate using hydraulic (oil) and pneumatic (air) systems. But particularly, hydraulic cranes are cranes with a straightforward structure that are frequently employed in warehouses, workshops, etc. This crane is often positioned at a fixed location with a manageable reach and a 180-degree rotation. As a result, a workshop or warehouse typically has multiple cranes.
Hoisting
Typically, warehouses and workshops are where you’ll find hoist cranes. On the ceiling, hoist cranes are positioned and moved along specialized rails that are fastened to the ceiling. The rails can also move in one direction back and forth.
