Developed based on double girder gantry crane fundamentals and optimized for vertical shaft operational characteristics, the mining vertical shaft gantry crane is a high-safety, reliable, intelligent and efficient lifting device. Featuring advanced automation and intelligent control capabilities, it adapts to diverse complex working conditions and supports both outdoor and underground cave installation.
The equipment supports flexible structural configurations, including portal, bridge and fixed bracket styles to fit on-site demands. It can be fitted with independent personnel and cargo lifting systems, which are capable of individual or collaborative operation within the shaft diameter range to meet diverse construction requirements.
This specialized gantry crane is extensively applied in various shaft projects of hydropower stations, covering cable shafts, high-pressure shafts, water outlet shafts and ventilation shafts. It undertakes full-process operations including shaft excavation, supporting construction, equipment hoisting, material delivery, subsequent equipment installation and on-site personnel transportation.
Serving the full construction cycle from shaft excavation to post-stage equipment installation, the crane covers multiple core working scenarios:
Personnel Transit: Realizes vertical transportation of construction workers inside vertical shafts.
Hydropower Project Construction: Performs excavation, supporting, equipment lifting and material handling for all types of hydropower shaft facilities.
Equipment Installation and Maintenance: Supports the hoisting, mounting and overhaul of various construction equipment, such as mini excavators, drilling rigs, shotcrete protection devices, slipform systems, BOX pipes and pressure steel pipes.
Material Conveyance: Completes vertical lifting and transportation of construction supplies including steel bars and barreled materials.
Variable Frequency Control: All operating mechanisms adopt variable frequency control, supporting indoor operation, platform operation and remote wireless control, perfectly adapting to deep shaft working environments.
Stable Operation & Precise Positioning: Delivers smooth operation and high-precision positioning, with micro-movement, inching and anti-sway functions. It supports synchronous operation of multiple mechanisms and lifting points.
High-Performance Winch Technology: Effectively eliminates wire rope twisting and hoist rotation issues during ultra-high lifting operations. Equipped with rope breakage and fall prevention devices to guarantee operational safety.
Redundant Safety Design: The personnel lifting mechanism adopts redundant safety configuration, with misoperation prevention and automatic zero-reset protection functions, realizing human-centric safety design.
Intelligent Management System: Comes with animation simulation, real-time load display and operational data recording functions, facilitating on-site monitoring and data analysis.
