Exported to Beirut, Lebanon: HSCRANE 10t FEM Standard Single Girder Overhead Crane

Lebanon Industrial Park Project Background Analysis

Heavy industry and metal processing in Beirut, Lebanon, are currently in a capacity recovery phase. A well-known local steel precast component manufacturer, Beirut Metal Construction SAL, recently upgraded its old plant’s internal equipment. The early plant had low headroom. It also faced strict high-frequency precise assembly demands. The client abandoned bulky, space-consuming traditional bridge cranes. They customized a new FEM standard single girder overhead crane from HSCRANE. It features low headroom and high duty group characteristics. This matches the material dispatch frequency of modern production lines.

Core Parameters of single girder overhead crane

Manufacturing Process and High-Standard Quality Control System

The HSCRANE manufacturing center scheduled this equipment batch strictly following FEM and DIN European crane standards. It focused on breaking through the synergy between steel structures and electromechanical systems.

●CNC blanking and NDT for steel structures: The main girder web uses whole-plate CNC laser cutting. This effectively reduces splicing welds and greatly improves structural yield strength. All main load-bearing welds of the machine use automatic submerged arc welding. They undergo 100% radiographic and ultrasonic non-destructive testing (NDT). This ensures the fatigue life of metal structures under alternating loads.

●Mechatronic drive assembly: The hoisting mechanism features a deeply customized European low headroom wire rope hoist. The hook limit size and dead weight are greatly reduced compared to traditional hoists. Both trolley and gantry running motors use three-in-one direct drive geared motors. They match with Schneider vector frequency inverters. This fundamentally eliminates mechanical impact and inertia sway during heavy metal hoisting.

Modular Structure Design and Ocean Shipping Packaging

Transnational long-distance ocean shipping poses erosion risks to electromechanical systems. To avoid this and maximize internal container space, our teams optimized the structural shipping plan.

●Segmented cutting and protection of the main girder: The 16.5-meter main girder span exceeds inland loading limits of standard 40-foot containers. Thus, it underwent precise mechanical calculations before leaving the factory. We adopted a segmented manufacturing process using high-strength bolt flanges. The steel surface undergoes Sa2.5 shot blasting. We then spray high-density zinc-rich epoxy primer and polyurethane topcoat. The exterior is covered with a thickened UV-proof striped waterproof tarpaulin.

●Vacuum sealing of core electrical components: The core electrical control box and three-in-one drive motors use multi-layer sealing. The entire European electric hoist also uses moisture-proof vacuum aluminum foil bags. They are placed inside fumigation-free composite wooden boxes. Customized shock-absorbing support bases rigidly fix components inside the wooden box. This completely eliminates internal mechanical displacement damage caused by ocean shipping bumps.

Mediterranean Route Cross-border Logistics and Acceptance

The single girder overhead crane completed no-load and heavy-load joint debugging tests at the factory. Heavy flatbed trailers then transported it to Qingdao Port. Logistics dispatchers pre-booked 40HQ ocean shipping spaces for the segmented main girder. The goods arrived smoothly at the Port of Beirut in Lebanon via the Mediterranean route.

After customs clearance and entering the plant, HSCRANE provided Chinese-English bilingual 3D exploded drawings. Our engineering team also provided remote video supervision. The Lebanese client’s electromechanical technology department worked independently. They completed the high-strength bolt splicing of the main girder within three days. They also completed track re-measurement and full-machine load testing. All operating parameters met the standards on the first try.

Conclusion

This project is a typical engineering record for the HSCRANE FEM standard single girder overhead crane. It highlights our deep cultivation of the eastern Mediterranean market. This 10-ton FEM standard single girder overhead crane boasts extremely high 3D space utilization. It also features frequency conversion anti-sway micro-motion control. This significantly optimized the internal logistics routes for the Lebanese metal processing enterprise. It increased on-site heavy component handling and positioning efficiency by about 40%. This successful delivery verified HSCRANE’s non-standard customization strength for severe plant working conditions. It further stabilized our technical reputation in the international high-end lifting equipment export field.
