The Price Of A 20 Ton Bridge Crane and Factors Affecting

The cost of a 20-ton bridge crane may depend on various factors, such as the type of crane selected, its functionality, installation and maintenance service fees, and accompanying lifting equipment. Typically, the cost of a 20-ton overhead crane can range from several thousand dollars to hundreds of thousands of dollars. For example, a standard 20-ton LD single-beam bridge crane may cost approximately $7,000 to $38,000 depending on the span, while a more advanced double-beam 20-ton overhead crane with additional features may be more expensive.

The following factors may affect the price of a 20-ton bridge crane, including:

  • Bridge crane span: The longer the crane span, the higher the material costs and process requirements, resulting in a corresponding increase in price.
  • Crane type: Cranes with different structural designs (such as single-beam, double-beam, European standard, etc.) have significant price differences due to variations in drive systems, safety features, and other design elements.
  • Lifting height: As lifting height increases, the main beam must be correspondingly extended to ensure load-bearing capacity and stability at higher heights, and appropriate grade steel must be used. Additionally, the power of the lifting motor and components such as wire rope hoists must be appropriately matched.
  • Optional features, such as laser anti-sway systems and infrared collision prevention devices, can significantly enhance operational safety and efficiency, effectively prevent crane accidents, and provide strong support for achieving “unmanned, intelligent operation.”
  • Customized products: If customization is required based on specific operational needs, this will impact production schedules, delivery timelines, and product pricing.

Application Industries And Scenarios Of 20-Ton Bridge Cranes

Steel Mill Transportation

20-ton bridge cranes are mainly responsible for lifting and transporting rolled steel coils and steel billets in steel mills, covering material transportation from production workshops to storage areas, ensuring the efficient and safe transfer of steel coils and steel billets during hot rolling, cold rolling, or subsequent processing, while also supporting equipment maintenance and logistics operations

Petrochemical Energy (Equipment Maintenance)

In the oil and gas industry, 20 ton overhead cranes are mainly used for heavy equipment and material handling in scenarios such as drilling rigs, refineries, and pipelines. Their core functions include lifting heavy parts such as pumps, valves, and pipeline components, as well as assisting with equipment maintenance and component replacement.

Construction

A 20 ton bridge crane is used at the construction site to lift and move heavy objects such as steel beams, concrete blocks, and pipes.

Waste Incineration Plant

A 20 ton bridge crane can grab, stack, mix, and feed more than 10 tons of garbage at a time in a large waste incineration plant. A large waste incineration plant can process 4,200 tons of garbage per day. After processing, the household waste is converted into nearly 600 million kilowatt-hours of green electricity, which can meet the annual electricity consumption of approximately 500,000 households.

13 Waste Incineration Plant

Warehouse Logistics

20 ton bridge cranes play a central role in the heavy-duty material handling of warehouses, factories, and yards: they efficiently load and unload large goods and efficiently and accurately transfer materials in dedicated yards.

Aerospace Assembly

The 20 ton bridge crane is suitable for aircraft assembly with a load requirement of 10 tons or more. It can lift and transport heavy components such as fuselages, wings, and engines, and accurately position them for assembly. It can also transport components across regions and assist in adjusting the posture of components. With its structural rigidity and precise control, it supports process alignment, differential rotation, and synchronous multi-point lifting, comprehensively ensuring assembly accuracy, efficiency, and safety.

20 Ton Overhead Crane Selection Guide

When selecting a bridge crane, it is crucial to accurately assess your needs and the performance of the equipment. The following are some factors to consider when purchasing a bridge crane:

  • Determine the lifting capacity: Clearly define the maximum load to select the main beam structure and hoist type.
  • Define the operating environment: For outdoor use, consider surface corrosion protection; pay attention to environmental temperature—in high-altitude, low-temperature environments, prevent brittle fracture of steel materials, and in high-temperature environments, consider high-temperature resistant design; for special environments, such as those with explosive gas mixtures, determine the protection rating, material selection for components, and explosion-proof configuration of the electrical system.
  • Crane span: Determine the optimal span based on factory dimensions, column positions, and the required coverage area of the work zone.
  • Key configurations: Optional configurations include variable frequency systems, travel limit switches, overload protection, collision prevention systems, remote monitoring, and automated operation to enhance operational safety and precision.
  • Compliance and certifications: Confirm that the manufacturer provides products compliant with local standards and quality management requirements, and holds a special equipment manufacturing license.
  • Maintenance and servicing: In addition to the crane itself, regular inspections and maintenance are required during installation and use. It is important to clarify whether related services are included.

The selection of a bridge crane is a comprehensive decision-making process that must consider factors such as lifting capacity, span, duty cycle, operating speed, installation space, environmental conditions, and cost. Only through scientific and reasonable selection can the chosen equipment efficiently and safely serve production, creating greater value for the enterprise.
