There are other configurations for users to choose: single and double speed chain hoists or other types of hoists; wireless remote control; the crane and trolley running mechanisms can use frequency converters, which can realize step or stepless speed regulation; the use of cranes in the open air environment should be clearly stated in order to make rain and wind protection.

Requirements For The Operating Performance Of The Crane
In order to make the gantry crane meet the use requirements under special environmental conditions or under specific working conditions, special requirements for the operating performance of the crane can be put forward, including environmental requirements, automatic control and safety protection requirements.
Environmental Requirements
- Gantry cranes can operate normally within the temperature range of -25~40℃. When the temperature exceeds this range, special measures must be taken. If there are special requirements, you should put forward when talking with the 5 ton A frame crane manufacturer.
- For cranes used in low-temperature environments, an insulated cab must be selected, and the metal structure should be made of materials with low sensitivity to low temperature and high impact toughness.
- Gantry cranes used outdoors should be protected from rain. Rainproof covers should be installed on lifting trolleys, crane running mechanism and electrical devices.
- For cranes used in dusty conditions, a sealed electrical room should be selected, and electrical devices should have good dust-proof performance.
- The crane used in the environment with flammable and explosive gas mixture should be explosion-proof type. According to the explosion-proof type, use environment, explosive gas mixture characteristics and the highest surface temperature, it can be divided into different explosion-proof grades. The electric motor and electric control device of the crane must be of explosion-proof type, and corresponding preventive measures must be taken where sparks may be generated due to frictional heating in the transmission of each mechanism.
- For cranes used in metallurgy, petroleum, chemical industry, and ports, because they work in an environment with corrosive media, they will cause severe corrosion to the metal structure of the crane. Therefore, corrosion-resistant steel can be selected as the metal material, or an effective anti-corrosion coating can be adopted.

Automatic Control
- For cranes that have the function of automatically grabbing goods, in order to accurately transport goods, improve production efficiency, and prevent the lifting device from swaying, generally an anti-sway device is selected.
- In some special occasions, such as lifting nuclear fuel, installing precision parts, etc., gantry cranes are required to be able to accurately position. If there is a requirement for positioning accuracy, it needs to be put forward. If necessary, a computer can be installed in the driver’s cabin, with screen automatically displaying the coordinate points and perform automatic process control of various handling operations.
- For cranes in some important applications, in order to ensure the safe use of the crane, the operation status and fault self-diagnosis monitoring system can be installed as an option.
Safety Protection Device
In order to ensure the safer and more reliable operation of the gantry crane, some safety protection devices should be selected according to different situations.
For example, add overload limiters to cranes that are prone to overload; multiple cranes operating frequently in the same span should be equipped with anti-collision devices; outdoor gantry cranes should be equipped with windproof and anti-skid device; for heavy-duty and frequently used cranes, in order to prevent excessive wear of wheels and wire ropes, an automatic oiling device can be added.
Installation And Commissioning of 5 Ton Gantry Cranes
How to install a 5 ton gantry crane? This is a concern of many customers. Generally, we have two different options for customers to choose from:
One, if required, we can send a professional installation team to the site for installation.
Two, customers can do the installation by themselves. We provide 3D installation videos, English instruction manuals, 24-hour online installation instructions, detailed electrical drawings, and the customers hire an electrical engineer locally. This is more economical.
No matter which party is responsible for the installation, there must be one chief commander and one safety officer on site. The rest of the installers can be determined according to the scale of the project, and the installers must hold an installation certificate. In addition, a feasible installation plan must be submitted before installation.
After the gantry crane is installed, it is necessary to carry out the initial trial operation, and rectify and debug the non-conforming items to meet the requirements of crane use and relevant standards.
