What is a portal crane?

The Fiaantry Crane is a type of upper crane with supports that hold it, which are fixed in place. This means that the crane cannot move, so everything it is about to lift must be brought to the crane. The supports form a large rectangular frame on which the crane can move forward and back and left and right. Everything you get in a portal crane is referred to as in its operating area. For example, if the company builds a large metal piece of equipment, metal parts can arrive on a truck. The truck will park in the operating area of ​​the crane, which can then be used to unload parts. The crane can also be used to move parts around, usually along the mounting line when the components are assembled. When the item is complete, the crane can be used to load the finished part back on the trucks it can be removed from the factory.

Since the crane in the portal can be used to lift very heavy weights, the operator must take special training in the correct operation and lifting techniques. On someIt may even be necessary to have an operating license.

Every crane is designed to be able to raise only a certain amount of maximum amount and this weight should not be exceeded. The shift of heavy weight at the end of the long cable can also provide unique challenges that the operator must be aware of and know how to handle.
