Today, in the world of industry and production, moving heavy loads is one of the main challenges of factories and industrial sheds. Construction of cranes is known as one of the vital elements in production lines, warehouses and construction projects. If you are the owner of an industrial business or you intend to equip your workshop, knowing the steps from zero to one hundred of manufacturing industrial and workshop cranes can help you choose the best option. In this specialized article, we will examine all aspects of the design, production and installation of these giant structures and we will introduce the role of Parsian Atlas Crane Company as one of the pioneers of this industry.

The importance of making cranes in modern industries

Cranes are not just tools for lifting loads; They are considered the main artery of material transfer in a factory. A short stop in the operation of the crane can paralyze the production line for hours. Therefore, quality is the first word in the construction of cranes. The production process of this equipment requires complex engineering knowledge, high-quality raw materials and compliance with international standards. Parsian Atlas Crane Company, with years of brilliant experience, has been able to launch products on the market that are at a high level in terms of safety and efficiency by combining modern knowledge and practical experience.

When we talk about crane manufacturing, we mean a precise engineering process that starts from the moment of customer needs assessment and continues until after sales service. Choosing the right contractor for the construction of overhead and gantry cranes is a long-term investment for your business.

Types of industrial cranes and their applications

Before entering the technical discussion and construction steps, we need to know which type of crane is suitable for your needs. Atlas Parsian Crane Company designs and produces a wide range of cranes, the most important of which are:

1. Construction of overhead crane

This type is the most common handling system in covered sheds. Construction of overhead cranes is done in two ways: single bridge and double bridge.

• Single-bridge overhead crane: It is suitable for smaller spans and lower capacities (usually up to 10 tons) and has a lower construction cost.
• Double-bridge overhead crane: It is used for heavy capacities and wide spans and is more stable. The engineers of Atlas Parsian Crane Company suggest the best option based on the dimensions of your shed with accurate calculations.

2. Construction of Gantry Crane

If you don't have a shed or a supporting roof, or if you intend to move cargo outdoors, building a gantry crane is the best option. These cranes have bases that move on rails installed on the ground. The construction of gantry cranes requires high accuracy in the alignment of the rails and the strength of the bases.

3. Construction of jib crane

For special workstations that need to move the load within a limited radius, a jib crane is used. This type of crane can be connected to the shed column or an independent column.

4. Construction of semi-gantry and hanging cranes

These models are designed for the special conditions of the shed architecture. Atlas Parsian Crane Company will carry out a detailed feasibility study for the implementation of these models by reviewing the plan of your workshop.

Step-by-step steps of making a crane in Atlas Parsian Crane Company

The zero-to-one hundred manufacturing process of industrial and workshop cranes in a reputable group such as Parsian Atlas Crane Company includes the following steps. Paying attention to the details in each of these steps will guarantee the longevity and safety of the device.

First step: detailed consultation and needs assessment

No project starts without a proper understanding of the customer's needs. Technical experts of Atlas Parsian Crane Company visit the project site first. The shed dimensions (length, width, height), load type, duty cycle and environmental conditions (humidity, dust, temperature) are checked. This information is vital for the optimal design and determination of the working class of the crane.

Second stage: design and engineering calculations

The beating heart of the crane manufacturing process is the design unit. Engineers prepare construction plans using advanced computing software. In this step, static and dynamic loads, bending of bridges, wind force (for external cranes) and incoming stresses are calculated. Atlas Parsian Crane Company is committed to carry out designs based on international standards such as FEM, DIN and ISO to ensure the safety of the structure.

The third step: choosing materials and buying raw materials

Output quality is directly dependent on input quality. Steel sheets with ST37 and ST52 alloys are usually used in the construction of industrial cranes. The type of sheet and its thickness are selected based on the calculations of the previous step. Atlas Parsian Crane Company procures all the raw materials from reliable manufacturers and controls the quality certificates of the materials to ensure that there are no defects in the steel structure.

Fourth stage: cutting and construction of metal structure (bridge and bridge)

After supplying the sheet, the cutting operation is done with precise CNC machines. In the construction of two-bridge overhead cranes, the wings and wings of the bridges are connected by specialized welding. The welding process at Atlas Parsian Crane Company is carried out under the strict supervision of welding engineers and using sub-powder and CO2 welding machines.

One of the important points in the construction of the crane is the negative rise (Camber), which should be included in the construction of the bridge so that after loading, the bridge becomes horizontal and does not sag. These are the technical subtleties that distinguish Atlas Parsian Crane Company from its competitors.

The fifth step: making longitudinal guides (End Carriages)

Guides or clegis are responsible for moving the crane along the shed. The wheels used in the guides should be made of forged steel or alloy cast iron with appropriate heat treatment so that they do not wear out quickly due to wear on the rails. Construction of cranes regardless of the quality of the wheels and longitudinal movement motors will lead to successive breakdowns and high repair costs.

Sixth step: cleaning and painting

Seventh step: Selection and installation of winch (Balancer) and mechanical equipment

Winch or hoist is the main mechanical part for lifting the load. In crane construction projects, towing or chain winches can be used. Parsian Atlas Crane Company guarantees the power and smoothness of load movement by supplying high-quality winches from prominent European and Asian brands (such as Demag, Kune Crane, Kito, Samsung, etc.) or high-quality internal assembly winches.

Eighth step: switchboard and control systems

The thinking brain of the crane is the electrical system and its control. The use of inverters in the electrical panel makes the movement of the crane smooth and without impact, which increases the life of the structure and prevents load fluctuations. Parsian Atlas Crane Company uses reliable brand parts such as Schneider or Siemens in the manufacture of electrical panels and installs safety systems such as limit switches (to limit movement) and collision sensors. Also, the longitudinal power supply system (power bus) is installed with high precision.

Step 9: Transport, installation and commissioning

After finishing the construction in the factory, the parts are transported to the project site. The installation team of Atlas Parsian Crane Company, with the necessary equipment, places the bridges on the carrier beam rails and establishes the connections. After the mechanical installation, cabling and start-up of the electrical system is done.

Tenth step: load test and final delivery

The most important step before delivery is to perform static and dynamic tests. The crane is tested with a load greater than the nominal capacity (usually 1.25 times) to ensure the strength of the structure and the performance of the brakes. After passing the tests, a health certificate and a capacity license plate are issued and the necessary training is given to the employer's operators.

Safety standards in the construction of workshop cranes

Safety compliance in crane construction is not a joke. The smallest negligence can lead to irreparable personal and financial accidents. The main standards that Atlas Parsian Crane Company adheres to are:

In addition, the installation of safety equipment such as "overload limiter" which cuts off the power of the device in case of overload, is mandatory in all crane construction projects of this company.

Factors affecting the price of crane construction

The cost of manufacturing industrial cranes depends on various parameters. Some employers are simply looking for a lower price, but it should be noted that lowering the price should not come at the cost of reducing safety. Factors affecting the price in Parsian Atlas crane company are clarified:

1. Carrying capacity (tonnage): The higher the tonnage, the greater the weight of the structure and the power of the equipment, and the price increases.
2. Span: The width of the shed directly affects the weight of the bridges and the type of design (single bridge or two bridges).
3. Lifting height: Determines the length of the towing wire or chain and the power of the lifting motor.
4. Brand Equipment: The use of European engines and gearboxes is more expensive than Chinese or Iranian models.
5. Additional possibilities: Installation of wireless remote control, magnets, hanging scales and inverters adds to the final price of crane construction.

Atlas Parsian Crane Company tries to establish the best balance between quality and your budget by providing honest advice so that extra costs are eliminated and efficiency is maximized.
