In this post I wil introduce you some knowledge and imformation about bridge crane.

What is a bridge crane?

First of all, I will you the defination of a bridge crane.  A bridge crane is a common type of  crane. This type of big machine is used to build  a bridge.

It has many parts to work together. For example, crane hoist and crane equipment.

Now you have known what is a bridge crane. But this is not enough. One important thing you should know is how to use them safely.

Here is the safe step of use a bridge crane.

* testing hoisting and travelling, as we all know, test before you use is important.
* testing of limit switches with no load on the hook
*testing the pendant controller and comparing it with direction indicators
* testing the emergency stop switch function, this is also important. Many people don’t know that. But when you face a emergency, you should have the stop switch work normally.
* testing the hook safety latch is operable

After these testing, I think you can use the bridge crane safely. But do not forget that after you use it, maintenance is also very important. Do repairs, adjustments or examinations for the bridge crane from time to time.
