VOITTO Crane supplied two LD-type 10t overhead crane to a machinery manufacturing workshop in Zaragoza, Spain. Both units were designed and manufactured in strict accordance with European standards and come with CE certification. They feature a span range of 24.5m and 21.5 meters, a lifting height of 12 meters, and a duty class of A5.

These cranes are designed to support material handling operations within the customer’s production facility, meeting the needs for lifting and moving parts and equipment during daily manufacturing processes. Following delivery, the equipment was installed and is currently in operation at the customer’s site. This case study outlines the project background, the crane configurations provided, and the manufacturing and shipping process for the project.

Customer Requirement — Workshop Material Handling

Operations in a customer’s machinery manufacturing workshop typically involve moving heavy components between different stages of production, such as hoisting parts awaiting machining or assembly, transporting component assemblies between workstations, and positioning finished or semi-finished equipment for inspection or storage. Typical material-handling operations in the shop floor include hoisting industrial components, transporting mechanical parts within the shop, positioning heavy workpieces, and supporting daily production and maintenance activities. Once the weight of the components and the span of the shop floor exceed certain limits, it becomes difficult to complete these tasks efficiently through manual handling alone.

The two LD 10t overhead crane supplied for this project were intended for material handling within the customer’s machinery manufacturing workshop. Rather than being specified for a single fixed task, the cranes were configured to operate across the workshop’s working spans and lifting height, giving the customer coverage for the range of lifting activity that a manufacturing workshop of this type generates.

Why a 10T Overhead Crane Fits the Workshop

10T Rated Lifting Capacity

The 10T rated lifting capacity was the capacity specified for this project. Lifting capacity requirements vary between facilities depending on the size and weight of the components handled.

Span Range

The two cranes supplied cover a span range of 21.5 m and 24.5 m across the project, allowing the workshop’s working bays to be served by units sized to the corresponding building width. The specific span assigned to each individual crane is part of the project’s engineering documentation.

Lifting Height

This equipment has a lifting height of 12 meters, which perfectly matches the vertical lifting range available for the customer’s material handling operations in the workshop. This value was specified for this particular project.

A5 Working Class

The A5 duty class is suitable for routine, medium-intensity operating conditions. In this project, the A5 duty class was incorporated into the crane’s design parameters to match the expected intensity of work in the workshop.

European Standard Overhead Crane Solution

The two cranes were engineered to European standard requirements and supplied with CE certification. This included structural design considerations appropriate to the specified span and lifting height, a lifting capacity and duty class matched to the project’s stated parameters, and documentation supporting CE compliance for the equipment supplied. The European-standard design approach was applied to the crane’s structural and safety-related configuration, in line with the customer’s stated requirement for CE-certified equipment for the workshop.

VOITTO Solution for the Machinery Workshop

VOITTO provides customized solutions for its customers rather than standardized configurations. The lifting capacity is set at 10 tons to meet specific lifting requirements; the span range is set at 21.5 and 24.5 meters to accommodate the layout of different work bays within the workshop. The configuration includes a lifting height of 12 meters to meet the vertical lifting range required for material handling operations in the workshop; the duty class is set to A5 to accommodate the expected operating frequency in the workshop. The entire configuration complies with European design standards and meets CE certification requirements to ensure the project’s compliance with regulatory standards.

Manufacturing and Project Delivery

Crane Manufacturing

Our project managers provide clients with real-time updates on equipment manufacturing details. Once production was completed and the equipment passed acceptance testing, we immediately arranged for the materials and shipped these two 10t overhead cranes to the client’s destination port.

Packaging and Shipment to Spain

Project photos document the packing and shipping process, showcasing the packaging measures VOITTO Crane implemented for export. The equipment was subsequently transported to the client’s site in Zaragoza, Spain.

Project Outcomes

VOITTO Crane supplied two LD-type 10-metric-ton overhead cranes to a machinery manufacturing workshop in Zaragoza, Spain. Following completion of manufacturing and shipment, both cranes have been installed at the customer’s site and are now in operation.

Conclusion

This project aims to meet the material handling needs within the workshops of the machinery manufacturing industry in Zaragoza. It utilizes two LD 10t overhead cranes, with configurations that fully meet the customer’s specified requirements for lifting capacity, span, lifting height, and duty class.

For machinery manufacturing companies with similar workshop layouts, the use of 10 ton overhead cranes with equivalent specifications can meet the material handling and positioning needs for various components and equipment within the production area. If you require a 10-metric-ton overhead crane material handling solution, please contact VOITTO.
