PROJECT CASE / AUTOMATED WAREHOUSING & COLD STORAGE

(8+8) t Automated Crane for Jinxiang Garlic Cold Storage

A twin-hoist warehouse crane identifies coded storage baskets, stacks them automatically and connects handling to the cold-store inventory database.

01 / PROJECT CONTEXT

The project and its handling task.

Henan Mine Crane designed and manufactured an (8+8) t intelligent warehouse crane for the Suantong Tianxia industrial park cold store, supplied for Shandong Lingdong Electronic Technology. It entered service in 2018.

The storage arrangement replaces small baskets and manual stacking with dedicated large baskets and a matched lifting attachment. Automatic basket-code recognition connects physical pickup and placement to the warehouse database and intelligent terminals.

02 / HANDLING REQUIREMENTS

Replace manual basket stacking with traceable crane moves.

Garlic storage in a cold store needs dense stacking and reliable inventory location, while manual movement exposes staff to difficult working conditions.

Basket size and loaded mass

Use a repeatable basket and lifting interface for each stored lot.

Cold-store bay and stack layout

Read the basket identity and move it to the assigned position.

Lot codes and data integration

Use database tasks to select, lift and dispatch the required basket.

Operating modes and retrieval rate

Use database tasks to select, lift and dispatch the required basket.

06 / PROJECT OUTCOME

In use since 2018.

The crane entered cold-store service in 2018. Basket identification, automatic lifting and database-linked storage support high-density warehouse handling and reduce reliance on manual stacking in the cold environment.

For a similar project, use dedicated large baskets and a matched lifting attachment. Identify each basket by code, then let the crane place and retrieve it through a warehouse database with manual, semi-automatic and automatic operating modes.

07 / PLAN A SIMILAR PROJECT

Prepare a comparable crane quotation.

Share the load schedule and site drawings. Use dedicated large baskets and a matched lifting attachment. Identify each basket by code, then let the crane place and retrieve it through a warehouse database with manual, semi-automatic and automatic operating modes.

We can quote a single crane or a coordinated fleet. The offer sets out the destination standards, required certificates and inspection records, manufacturing programme after drawing approval, shipment, installation support and agreed acceptance scope.

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. Basket size and loaded 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 operating modes and retrieval rate in the technical review.
