Case Study: Custom MHO Single-Girder Gantry Cranes for a Valued Client in the UAE

At Dongqi Crane, we pride ourselves on delivering high-performance, customized material handling solutions that meet the specific operational needs of our global clients. In 2025, we had the pleasure of manufacturing and supplying three units of our MHO Single-Girder Gantry Cranes equipped with European-style hoists to a customer based in the United Arab Emirates.

These cranes were designed to provide reliable and efficient lifting performance, perfectly tailored to the client’s site constraints and operational requirements.

Tailored Specifications for Diverse Operations

Understanding that every workspace is unique, we customized each crane’s dimensions to ensure seamless integration into the client’s facility. The order comprised the following configurations:

• Unit 1: A robust gantry crane with a 5-ton lifting capacity, featuring a span of 4.65 meters and a lifting height of 6 meters.
• Units 2 & 3: Two identical cranes, each with a 5-ton capacity, but designed with a wider span of 7.795 meters and an increased lifting height of 7.1 meters to cover different areas of the operation.

All three cranes are engineered to operate on a standard power supply of 380V, 50Hz, 3 Phase, ensuring consistent and reliable performance.

Key Features of the MHO Gantry Cranes

These are not just standard lifting devices; they are precision-engineered machines designed for durability and safety:

• High-Performance European-Style Hoist: The core of the crane is the advanced electric hoist, which ensures smooth load handling, precise positioning, and high operational efficiency. It is built for frequent use with minimal maintenance.
• Robust Single-Girder Design: The MHO series is known for its optimal balance between strength and lightness. The single-girder design reduces the overall dead weight of the crane, leading to lower wheel loads on the existing structures and more efficient movement.
• Customized Dimensions: The specific spans and lifting heights were strictly manufactured according to the client’s drawings, guaranteeing a perfect fit for their workspace and maximizing the usable floor area.
• Durability for Local Conditions: While standard, these cranes are built with the robustness required for demanding industrial environments.

Client Feedback and On-Site Performance

We recently received work photos from the client showing the cranes fully installed and operational at their site in the UAE. The images reflect a successful installation and integration into their daily workflow.

The client’s team has reported that the cranes are operating smoothly, providing the necessary flexibility to move materials across the specified spans with ease. The precision control of the European-style hoist has been particularly beneficial for handling materials carefully and efficiently.

Conclusion

This project for our UAE client highlights Dongqi Crane’s commitment to providing customized, high-quality lifting equipment that meets exact specifications. Whether it’s a standard model or a custom-designed solution, our engineering team ensures that every crane delivers on safety, performance, and longevity.

We are proud to support industries in the UAE and across the globe with reliable material handling solutions.
