In numerous scenarios such as industrial production, logistics and warehousing, and construction, small gantry cranes, with their unique advantages, have become reliable assistants for improving work efficiency. They resemble a gantry in appearance, have a compact structure, and possess a powerful lifting capacity.

I. Structure and Materials
Small gantry cranes are mainly composed of the main beam and the outriggers. The main beam is responsible for lifting heavy objects, and the outriggers support and ensure balance. High-strength steel is mostly used, and they are connected by high-strength bolts, which is convenient for disassembly, transportation, and installation.

II. Functional Characteristics
Diverse Lifting Capacity: The lifting capacity ranges from 0.2 to 10 tons, divided into different levels, suitable for the lifting needs of various materials.
Simple and Precise Operation: It can be equipped with an electric or hand chain hoist. The electric-driven type can be precisely controlled through a remote controller or a handle, reducing the operation difficulty and improving efficiency.

III. Application Scenarios
Industrial Production: In machining workshops, automotive manufacturing plants, and electronic and electrical production workshops, it is used to transport various raw materials, components, and equipment, ensuring the smooth operation of the production line.
Logistics and Warehousing: In warehouses, it is used for the inbound and outbound of goods and stacking; in logistics distribution centers, it helps with the sorting and transportation of goods, improving logistics efficiency.
Construction: In small construction sites, it is used to lift building materials and tools; at decoration sites, it is used to transport decoration materials and equipment, improving the safety and efficiency of construction.
Ports and Wharves: In small ports and yacht marinas, it is used for loading and unloading goods and lifting yachts, meeting the basic operation requirements of ports and the maintenance needs of yachts.

IV. Outstanding Advantages
Lightweight and Portable: It has a light weight, and some can be folded and disassembled, making it convenient for transportation and access to narrow spaces.
Easy Installation: It does not require a professional team or complex infrastructure. A small car can be used for transfer and installation, with low cost and a short cycle.
Flexible Operation: There are multiple operation methods, and the electric drive enables precise control.
Strong Applicability: The height and width can be adjusted, making it suitable for a variety of places.
Safe and Reliable: It is equipped with safety devices such as overload protection, anti-collision devices, and limit switches.
Cost Advantage: It occupies a small area, and the purchase and maintenance costs are low, with high cost-effectiveness.

V. Development History
Early Origins: There were early forms of lifting in ancient Greece and ancient China. Gantry cranes emerged during the Industrial Revolution, laying the technical foundation for small gantry cranes.
Development Stage: In the early 20th century, electric gantry cranes replaced hydraulic ones, and small gantry cranes appeared. After the middle of the 20th century, with the application of automation technology, the products became more diverse.
Modern Stage: There have been intelligent and digital transformations, enabling remote monitoring and intelligent scheduling. At the same time, attention is paid to energy conservation, reducing energy consumption and environmental impact.
