Vietnamese lifting equipment provider Vinalift has designed, manufactured, and installed a 12.5-ton overhead crane at the Southern Petrochemical Complex Project in Vung Tau City, Vietnam.
The double girder overhead crane, installed in a designated safe area, adheres to quality and occupational safety standards.
It facilitates the loading, unloading, and transportation of materials and equipment at the petrochemical complex.
The crane features a single hook with 360° free rotation, a lifting height of 8.25 metres with a maximum of 10 metres, and a crane span of 10.8m.
It operates along a runway length of approximately 50 metres, powered by a 380V, three-phase, 50Hz supply with a control voltage of 48V.
Operators can control the crane via remote control or push pendant control.
Designed to FEM 1.001 standards, the crane falls under FEM 2m/ISO M5 duty class and functions within an operating temperature range of 0°C to +40°C.
The structure is constructed from SS400 steel, with a maximum wheel load of 105kN.
The crane offers a lifting speed of 4.0/0.6 m per minute, a trolley travel speed of 20 / 5.0 metres per minute, and a crane travel speed of 30 / 5.0 metres per minute.
It features a lifting motor of 9.0/1.4kW, a trolley travel motor of 1.25 / 0.32 kW, and a crane travel motor of 1.25 / 0.32 kW, all equipped with a DC brake system.
Also, the crane comes with enhanced safety features such as an overload protection device, a lifting limit switch, and cross and long travel limit switches.
It also features a distance sensor for collision prevention and a travelling alarm system.
Vinalift, in a LinkedIn post, said: “12.5 Ton Double Girder Overhead Crane serving the Southern Petrochemical Complex project – Long Son Commune, Vung Tau City, Ba Ria – Vung Tau Province.
“This equipment is used to support loading, unloading, and transporting materials and equipment. Installed in a safe area, ensuring quality standards and labour safety.”
In a separate development, Vinalift announced that its two 45-ton port handling cranes are stably operating at Long Son International Port in Vung Tau, Vietnam.
The cranes, with a load capacity of 45 tons, offer high precision and flexible operation, meeting the needs of loading and unloading containers as well as bulk cargo.
The cranes are significantly improving cargo handling productivity at the port, said Vinalift.
