What is a mast crane

Mast crane is a common lifting equipment and is widely used in construction, ports, ship manufacturing and other fields. It provides support through the mast structure and realizes lifting and moving heavy objects through mechanisms such as ropes and pulleys. The following will introduce the mast crane in detail from the aspects of definition, structure, classification, application scenarios and popular data.

1. Definition of mast crane

What is a mast crane

Mast crane is a mechanical device that supports the lifting boom through a fixed or movable mast structure, which is mainly used for the handling of heavy objects in vertical or horizontal directions. Its characteristics are simple structure and easy to install, and are suitable for a variety of operating environments.

2. Structure of mast crane

The mast crane is mainly composed of the following parts:

Part NameFunction description
MastThe main structure that supports the lifting boom is usually a steel pipe or a truss structure.
Boom< is made of steel structure for hanging heavy objects.
Pullax setThe lifting and lowering of heavy objects is achieved through ropes and pulleys.
DriverProvide power to control the operation of the crane.

3. Classification of mast cranes

According to the use scenario and structural characteristics, mast cranes can be divided into the following categories:

ClassificationFeatures
Fixed mast craneInstalled in a fixed position, suitable for long-term operations.
Mobile mast craneWith walking mechanism, flexible movement.
