The operation of a 3-ton+3-ton double hook overhead crane in a wood factory is as follows

What is a double hook crane? Why choose to use a double hook crane? The following video is from a wood processing plant in Maldives in 2018, showcasing the working form of a double hook crane.

When deciding to purchase a double hook crane, you need to understand its performance and working characteristics. Generally speaking, double hook cranes have the following advantages compared to single hook cranes:

Increasing load capacity: The double hook system greatly improves the load capacity of the crane, as the two hooks can bear greater weight and also share the weight of the lifted object, making the pressure on the crane mechanism more balanced and avoiding the failure of the mechanism caused by excessive force on a single hook.

Improving construction efficiency: The double hook system can lift two objects separately from two hooks, greatly improving construction efficiency. If there is only one hook, it requires two lifts to complete the lifting of two objects.

Increased safety: The double hook system of the crane increases safety because the two hooks can resist the shaking, shaking, and unstable factors of heavy objects. If one hook fails, the other hook can bear the remaining weight to ensure work safety.

Easy turnover operation of workpieces: The double hook crane can more easily perform the turnover operation of workpieces, reducing the workload of the turnover process.

Overcoming the imbalanced weight of the workpiece itself: The double hook crane can use the lifting force in the steel rope to overcome the imbalanced weight of the workpiece itself, simplifying the lifting and binding.

Eliminating dedicated lifting appliances: Double hook cranes can eliminate dedicated lifting appliances, making loading and unloading simple and ensuring high safety.
