01 / PROJECT CONTEXT

The project and its handling task.

Henan Mine Crane supplied more than ten crane units, including 500 t and 400 t gantry equipment, for the Ma’anshan Yangtze River road–rail bridge project.

A 500 t gantry supported China Railway Jiuqiao’s first-round overall assembly acceptance for the Z3 steel tower. The crane package handles main steel-tower sections and other large bridge structures, linking fabrication and assembly lifts to the project sequence.

02 / HANDLING REQUIREMENTS

Move major steel-tower sections through bridge fabrication and assembly.

Large cable-stayed-bridge tower modules need heavy controlled lifts at fabrication and preassembly stations before erection.

Steel section dimensions and mass

Confirm lifting points and support frames for each steel section.

Yard/runway plan

Assign gantry paths and waiting zones in the fabrication yard.

Concurrent crane schedule

Position sections for trial assembly and inspection before release.

Trial-assembly tolerances

Position sections for trial assembly and inspection before release.

06 / PROJECT OUTCOME

Assembly acceptance milestone completed.

The Z3 steel-tower first-round overall assembly acceptance was completed with support from the 500 t gantry. The broader crane package serves structural handling across the bridge project.

For a similar project, size the gantry fleet from the heaviest tower section and site layout. Coordinate several gantries so fabrication, trial assembly and dispatch can proceed without conflicting load paths.

BUYER QUESTIONS

Questions before specifying a similar crane.

Can the same project crane be supplied for my site?

We customize the capacity, span, lifting height, attachment and controls to the load, building or yard layout and operating cycle. Steel section dimensions and mass is one of the inputs to review before final equipment selection.

How are certification, quantity and lead time agreed?

Single-crane and fleet enquiries are welcome. Define the destination and required standards in the enquiry. The project offer confirms certification and inspection documents, the quantity, drawing approval and manufacturing schedule, with the shipping and site-service boundaries.

What should acceptance and after-sales support include?

Agree the inspection plan, representative load and functional tests, operator training, maintenance instructions, spare-parts scope and fault-recovery procedures. For this application, include trial-assembly tolerances in the technical review.
