Equipment in power plants will wear out during long-term operation, and regular maintenance is essential. The overhead crane can be used to lift and replace damaged components during maintenance. For example, during a routine inspection of a nuclear power plant, the crane can quickly move to a designated location to lift components inside the nuclear reactor for inspection and replacement. This not only improves the efficiency of maintenance, but also reduces the downtime and ensures the continuous operation of the power plant.
The gantry crane is used to replace the rotor of the generator during the scheduled maintenance of the hydropower station. Since the weight of the rotor exceeds 100 tons, it is obvious that the traditional manual handling method is no longer applicable. The use of double beam gantry crane for hoisting not only improves the work efficiency, but also ensures the safety of operators. In addition, the performance of the generator is significantly improved after maintenance, and the generation efficiency is increased by 5%.
In the expansion project of the power plant, the semi double beam gantry crane was used to lift the newly installed boiler and chimney components. The project team used a gantry crane with a capacity of 100 tons to successfully complete the lifting task. Due to the flexibility of the gantry crane, the lifting operation proceeded smoothly in the complex site environment and the construction schedule was advanced by nearly two weeks. This case shows the important role of gantry cranes in the installation of large equipment.
