Rated at 50 tons and available in single-girder, double-girder, rail-mounted, and rubber-tyred configurations, this gantry crane is built for steel yards, precast plants, shipyards, and container terminals that need reliable, repeat-cycle heavy lifting. Span and lifting height are configured to your site before manufacturing begins.
The 50 ton gantry crane is a heavy-duty lifting equipment. We typically use it in areas such as ports, outdoor cargo yards, factories, and construction sites. Operators use it to lift, load, and unload steel, containers, heavy equipment components, etc. Its main beam spans over two legs to form a “door” structure, so it is called a gantry crane.
A 50 ton gantry crane is a gantry-type lifting system. This equipment is specifically designed for handling large, heavy loads in locations where it is impractical to install fixed overhead cranes, such as open-air stockpiles, production workshops, and port terminals. Its structure consists of a main girder spanning the work area, supported by two outriggers. The hoisting mechanism, mounted on a trolley, travels along the main girder to lift, transport, and position cargo such as steel plates, precast concrete components, containers, and mechanical parts.
Given that the “50-ton” rated lifting capacity covers a wide range of operating conditions, VOITTO offers eight structural configurations to choose from, including single-girder L-type, double-girder A-type, heavy-duty U-type, rail-mounted (RMG), rubber-tired (RTG), truss-type, shipbuilding-specific, and shield tunnel construction-specific models. The span, lifting height, duty cycle, and control mode of the VOITTO 50 ton gantry crane can all be customized to match the user’s site layout, operational frequency, and outdoor environmental conditions.
VOITTO offers different types of 50-ton gantry cranes. Users can customize them according to different working environments and structural forms of factories or outdoor freight yards. The following are some common types and their usage scenarios:
The L-type single-girder gantry crane adopts an L-type outrigger design and a single main girder structure. One side of the L-shaped outrigger is tilted or angled, effectively increasing the lifting space and facilitating the loading, unloading, and handling of long, large, or wide cargo.
Application: Users use it to lift materials that are larger in size, longer in length, and wider in width, such as steel, steel plates, steel sections, pipes, containers, and large mechanical parts.

|---|---|
| Load Capacity (Main and Aux Hook) | 50/10 Ton |
| Span | 18~35 m |
| Lifting Height | 10~12 m |
| Lifting Speed | 6.5~9.2 m/min |
| Trolley Travelling Speed | 39.5 m/min |
| Crane Travelling Speed | 40.2 m/min |
| Work Duty | A5 |
The A-type double-girder gantry crane features a double-beam structure and A-shaped outriggers. The double-beam design offers higher load capacity and a wider span, enabling the lifting of heavy and bulky materials. The A-shaped outriggers provide stability and balanced load distribution, making it suitable for frequent, long-duration, heavy-load operations.
Application: Operators often use it to lift large tonnage materials such as steel plates, steel sections, coils, containers, large equipment, and ship sections.

| Lifting Speed | 1~8 m/min |
| Trolley Travelling Speed | 5~31 m/min |
| Crane Travelling Speed | 4~42 m/min |
| Work Duty | A5 |
The U-type double-girder gantry crane is a heavy-duty lifting equipment. Unlike traditional A-type or L-type outriggers, the U-shaped outriggers are wider apart and stand upright, creating more clearance beneath the gantry. This allows for easy access for large vehicles, container trucks, or extra-wide cargo, without being hindered by the outriggers.
Application: Operators use heavy-duty gantry cranes to lift containers, steel coils, steel plates, large machinery and equipment, and extra-wide cargo. They are particularly suitable for large-tonnage lifting and loading and unloading of extra-wide materials.

A Rail-Mounted Gantry Crane (RMG) is a heavy-duty gantry crane that operates on rails and is commonly used for container loading and unloading and yard operations. RMG Crane equipment with a container-specific spreader can lift 20-foot, 40-foot, and 45-foot containers.
Application: The driver controls the RMG through the cab, remote control, or automated system to complete the lifting and stacking of containers, usually able to stack containers to a height of 5 to 8 layers.

The Rubber Tyred Gantry Crane is a specialized lifting device for container yards. It is rail-independent, and Bottom features a rubber tire, allowing it to be flexibly moved to different areas of the yard. This makes the RTG Crane highly adaptable.
Application: Users use it to lift and stack containers, such as 20-foot, 40-foot, and 45-foot containers. Its rubber tire travel mechanism allows it to be moved to different work areas, enabling 5+1 or 6+1 stacking of containers. It is ideal for container loading, unloading, and storage operations requiring high mobility and flexible locations.

Truss gantry cranes utilize a truss structure throughout. Compared to traditional box-type double-girder gantry cranes, they utilize welded steel pipes or sections to form a truss structure. Customers can customize the main beam or outriggers of the truss structure to suit their specific application. Truss gantry cranes offer light weight and excellent wind resistance, making them suitable for use in open-air or windy locations.
Application: Truss gantry cranes are commonly used in open-air freight yards, steel storage yards, stone yards, prefabricated component factories, etc. Operators use them to lift steel, stone, concrete components, large profiles, and assembly parts.
