20 Ton Single Girder Overhead Crane Successfully Delivered to Jakarta Automotive Manufacturing Plant

With the rapid development of Indonesia’s automotive industry, a large automobile manufacturing plant in Jakarta, Indonesia, has been upgrading its production lines. Higher requirements were placed on the lifting efficiency and safety of car bodies, dies, and large components. The existing lifting equipment could no longer meet the demands of high-intensity, continuous production in terms of rated capacity, operational stability, and maintenance costs.

Based on this situation, the client decided to introduce a 20-ton single girder overhead crane to handle material lifting in the stamping workshop and final assembly area, aiming to comprehensively improve production efficiency and reduce operational risks.

Customer Requirements Analysis

During the initial project communication, the client highlighted the following key requirements:

●High rated capacity: The crane must reliably handle car body parts and large dies, with a maximum lifting capacity of no less than 20 tons.

●Smooth and reliable operation: The automotive workshop involves high-frequency operations, requiring strict control over lifting and traveling smoothness.

●Adaptation to local environment: The equipment must withstand Indonesia’s high-temperature and high-humidity industrial environment for long-term stable operation.

●Easy maintenance and long service life: Minimize downtime and reduce total cost of ownership.

Solution and Design Highlights

In response to the client’s needs, the HSCRANE team delivered a customized 20-ton single girder overhead crane solution featuring:

●A high-strength optimized main girder structure that reduces self-weight while ensuring rated capacity, thereby lowering the load on the building structure.

●A high-performance electric hoist with variable frequency control, enabling precise lifting and smooth starting/stopping.

●International-brand electrical components with strong moisture and dust resistance, suitable for Indonesian working conditions.

●Multiple safety protections, including overload protection, limit switches, and emergency braking system, ensuring comprehensive production safety.

Main Technical Parameters of the Overhead Crane

●Equipment type: Single girder overhead crane

●Rated lifting capacity: 20 tons

●Span: Customized according to workshop structure

●Lifting height: Designed per process requirements

●Hoisting mechanism: Electric hoist

●Control mode: Push-button + VFD control (remote control optional)

●Duty class: Meets high-frequency automotive manufacturing requirements

Project Implementation and Delivery

After production was completed, the project team carried out export packaging, ocean transportation, and on-site installation guidance as scheduled. Upon arrival in Jakarta, the crane was installed and commissioned in strict accordance with international standards, followed by no-load, rated load, and overload testing.

Ultimately, the 20-ton single girder overhead crane successfully passed customer acceptance and was officially put into daily operation at the automobile manufacturing plant.

Project Results and Customer Feedback

After commissioning, workshop material handling efficiency improved significantly. Lifting operations became safer and more stable, and equipment failure rates were markedly reduced. The client highly praised the crane’s performance and the overall solution, noting that the project provides a reliable reference for future production line expansion.
