Fixed cranes are indispensable equipment in the industrial field, with a variety of types, each with its own characteristics.

Fixed cranes are typically mounted on a foundation or support base and are designed for stationary operation. The main types include fixed tower cranes, deck cranes, jib cranes, gantry cranes, shore-based bridge container cranes, mast cranes, and portal cranes. These cranes are suited for different working environments and operational requirements. For example, fixed tower cranes have their booms mounted at the top of a vertical tower and can rotate the boom, making them highly suitable for construction and civil engineering projects. Deck cranes, on the other hand, are typically installed on ship decks for loading and unloading cargo, thereby reducing the turnaround time of vessels.

The key features of fixed cranes lie in their stability and load-bearing capacity. They can handle heavy loads, making them suitable for lifting heavy cargo. Additionally, their operational range is extensive, with boom length and height designed to meet specific environmental requirements. Easy operation and high precision are also important characteristics of fixed cranes. Modern fixed cranes often utilize computer-controlled technology to achieve precise positioning and stable lifting. Furthermore, the steel structures of fixed cranes are made of structural steel or steel pipes, which are lightweight, high-strength, and have excellent wind resistance, enabling them to maintain good working conditions in various harsh environments.

In summary, fixed cranes play an irreplaceable role in industrial production with their diverse types and distinctive features. Whether it is loading and unloading operations at ports and terminals or cargo handling in factories and warehouses, fixed cranes provide efficient, safe, and stable solutions.
