Panduan Komprehensif untuk Kren Gantry 5 Tan: Jenis, Spesifikasi dan Aplikasi

In modern industrial outdoor operations, the handling of small to medium-sized loads (2-4 tons) is essential everywhere—from raw material loading and unloading in factory yards, to cargo transfer in logistics parks, to equipment hoisting at construction sites. A lifting device that can flexibly adapt to any site while reliably handling heavy loads is key to boosting efficiency in these tasks.
The 5-ton gantry crane eliminates the need for complex factory support structures. Its tracks can be flexibly laid out according to the site, and its load capacity precisely matches the demands of handling small to medium-sized heavy objects. This perfectly resolves the pain points of traditional equipment—restrictions by site conditions and mismatches between load capacity and operational needs—making it the preferred choice for numerous enterprises.
This article will explore the practical value and selection logic of the 5-ton gantry crane from dimensions including its core types, key parameters, and suitable application scenarios.

Product Types of 5 Ton Gantry Crane

5 ton A Type Single Girder Gantry Crane

Featuring a triangular support frame structure, the design is simple and robust, with low maintenance costs and easy operation.

5 ton L Type Single Girder Gantry Crane with Electric Hoist

Featuring an L-shaped leg structure for enhanced lateral stability during operation and a wider field of view.

5 ton L Type Single Girder Gantry Crane with Trolley Hoist

5 ton Semi Gantry Crane

Gantry cranes with legs on only one side utilize tracks laid along one side of the factory building or other steel structures, saving floor space and offering strong adaptability to site conditions.

5 ton Double Girder Gantry Crane

Typically offering greater lifting capacity and span, with flexible functional expansion and more stable operation.

5 ton Portable Gantry Crane

Compact size with flexible operating range, typically equipped with polyurethane wheels, and generally suited for lightweight lifting tasks in confined spaces.

5 Ton Gantry Crane Parameter Comparison

To help you visually compare the core performance of each model and efficiently complete your selection, the table below details the key technical parameters for various 5 ton gantry cranes. During actual purchasing, all product specifications can be customized to meet your specific operational requirements.

Application Scenarios for 5 Ton Gantry Crane

Machine Shop Operations: During production in machine shops, portable 5 ton gantry cranes facilitate short-distance material handling within workshops when processing raw materials like steel plates, steel blanks, and steel columns into metal components. At the finished goods loading stage, these cranes assist in loading products onto trucks for shipment.
Metal Scrap Recycling: For scrap metal from domestic and industrial sources, materials are sorted by type, composition, and form. A baler compresses and packages the scrap, reducing its volume and standardizing its shape for efficient stacking and transportation. Metal briquettes, weighing approximately 1-4 tons depending on density and volume, can be stored using the 5 ton gantry crane or loaded onto trucks for transport to metal smelting plants or recycled metal processing facilities. This supports resource recycling through processes like remelting and purification, transforming the material into new metal raw materials.
Construction Material Processing: In scenarios involving the transfer of raw materials like rebar and pipes, the 5 ton gantry crane efficiently lifts rebar bundles, steel pipes, and structural steel. It precisely moves these items from the unloading zone to rebar processing sheds and binding work areas, ensuring smooth material handling by meeting the weight and workflow demands of this stage.
Large Automotive Repair Facilities: In extensive automotive repair facilities handling heavy-duty vehicle maintenance and large component replacements/handling—such as engines and transmissions weighing 3 tons or more—5 ton gantry cranes play a critical lifting role. For instance, repairing or replacing key components like truck engines or transmissions, typically weighing 2-4 tons, relies heavily on these cranes.
Port Container Decontainerization and Recontainerization: At cargo handling centers in ports and logistics parks, when decontainerizing or recontainerizing goods within designated areas, 5 ton gantry cranes enable precise lifting operations. Coordinating with forklifts and other equipment facilitates rapid loading, unloading, and transshipment of cargo.

Custom 5 Ton Gantry Crane Project Pricing

Due to the multifaceted factors influencing crane pricing—such as raw material fluctuations, custom specifications, and manufacturing complexity—there is no uniform market pricing. This makes it challenging for most buyers to obtain clear cost references. To provide an initial understanding of the price range for customized equipment, this section compiles actual custom project cases for various 5 ton gantry crane types, including electric hoist semi-gantry, truss-type, and double-girder gantry models, with key parameters and corresponding prices noted. It is important to note that the following cases serve solely as market cost references and do not represent current real-time quotations. If you have specific operational requirements (such as adaptation to special working conditions or functional expansions), we recommend further communication to obtain a one-on-one selection analysis and precise quotation. This will help avoid cost losses due to parameter mismatches.
