Overhead Crane Installation Process Details 

Kuangshan Crane always follows a standardised installation process that is both structured and efficient, ensuring that each set of lifting equipment is delivered reliably and safely.

1. Equipment Acceptance: Ensure an Orderly Start of The Installation Work 

When the customer receives the lifting equipment, the following inspections should be completed first:

  • Inventory of goods: check whether the equipment list is consistent with the real thing, including verification of the number of goods and whether the components are complete.
  • Check the condition of components: to confirm whether there is damage or missing parts during transport.
  • Verify the random information: make sure the operation manual, installation drawings, certificates of conformity and other information is complete.

2. Pre-installation Communication and Preparation: Laying The Foundation for Smooth Construction 

Before the installation formally starts, Kuangshan Crane’s engineers and installation technicians will fully communicate with the customer on the following key details to ensure the installation is carried out efficiently and smoothly:

  • Plant drawing review: Carefully check the plant architectural drawings provided by the customer to ensure that the structural dimensions (e.g. span, headroom, rail foundation) match the crane design parameters.
  • Confirmation of materials and tools list: Make a complete list of materials and tools, and specify the installation equipment, welding equipment, power connections, etc. required on site.
  • Installation schedule planning: set up a reasonable construction schedule to avoid cross-conflict with other projects and ensure reasonable deployment of resources.
  • Explanation of construction points: clarify the division of labour among on-site personnel (e.g. electromechanical engineers, auxiliary workers, etc.), and communicate safety requirements, construction plans, site clearance standards, etc.
  • Site environment survey: Understand and prepare the basic conditions required for installation in advance, including confirmation of installation power supply voltage, preparation of tools, lifting route planning.

3. Pre-installation Site Condition Preparation: Create a Good Construction Environment 

Kuangshan Crane installation team will comprehensively assess and ensure that the following preparations are in place before construction:

  • Power supply matching check: to confirm whether the power supply system at the client’s site matches the technical parameters of the lifting equipment.
  • Ground condition assessment: Check the ground loading capacity and working access to ensure the smooth entry of installation vehicles and lifting equipment.
  • Roof structure and obstacles: Confirm whether the height of the roof meets the requirements of lifting space, and check whether the piping system, roof lights, etc. affect the operation.
  • Welding and installation equipment in place: Prepare welding equipment, testing tools, slings and other key construction tools in advance.
  • Confirmation of safety and hygiene conditions: the installation area must be cleaned up and tidy, with basic lighting and safety warning facilities.

Overhead Crane Installation Process Details Show 

All installation projects are carried out by Kuangshan Crane’s experienced team. Engineers flexibly adjust with the site conditions during the construction process and pay attention to every key detail to ensure that the installation process is standardised, safe and precise. We have prepared standardised operation procedures, tool lists and risk control points for different types of cranes, and provided video materials for staff training, pre-installation rehearsal and project acceptance. Here are some details that Kuangshan Crane’s installation engineers pay attention to: 

1. Precise marking and component serial number management: all components (such as main girder, end girder, trolley, etc.) are clearly marked and numbered upon arrival, and the engineers strictly correspond to the installation position according to the lifting schematic diagrams, which improves the efficiency of loading and the accuracy of positioning for maintenance in the later stage.

2. Component connection: Engineers mark the bolt connections to avoid loosening. High-quality connections enhance the overall stability of the equipment and reduce vibration and fatigue damage during long-term use.

5Component connection

3. Inspection of components: The engineer inspects the components during the installation process to ensure that all components operate smoothly and in accordance with the technical requirements.

6Inspection of components

4. Efficient integration of the electrical system: engineers ensured that power cables, control systems and hoist motors were wired to specifications, with modular wiring designed for easy maintenance. Optimising the electrical system reduces the risk of circuit failures and improves the crane’s responsiveness and operational accuracy.

Commissioning and Load Testing 

After installation, Kuangshan Crane ensures that your crane is fully operational and safe. The test steps are as follows:

  • Operational Inspection: Technicians check the function of safety devices, winch, crane beam, and crane trolley operation tests to eliminate any problems.
  • Load test: Load test at 125% of the crane’s rated lifting capacity to verify stability, structural integrity and performance under stress.
  • Performance check: load test, dynamic load test (1h) and static load test (3*10min), mainly to check whether the function of each mechanism and transmission device can act normally.
  • Commissioning report: Kuangshan Crane provides detailed test reports, records the results and confirms compliance with standards, giving you peace of mind.
