What's gantry crane and what's it used for?
A gantry crane is a variant of a bridge crane. At ports, it is mainly used for loading and unloading operations of goods and bulk cargo in outdoor cargo yards and material yards. Its metal structure resembles a door-shaped frame, with two legs installed under the main beam, allowing it to move directly on tracks on the ground. The ends of the main beam can be equipped with outward-extending cantilever beams. Gantry cranes are characterized by high land utilization, a wide operating range, strong adaptability, and versatility, making them widely used in port cargo yards.
