Different Models and prices of Overhead Crane

Bridge cranes come in various models—differing in load capacity, span, structural design, and intended use—which directly affects their pricing. Below are the main model categories and approximate price ranges (based on average figures, excluding specific customizations and logistics costs):

By structural design
-Single-girder bridge cranes (single-beam)
Characteristics: Lightweight design; suitable for lower load capacities (0.5 to 20 tonnes) and spans of 5 to 30 meters. Frequently used in workshops, warehouses, or small production facilities.
Prices: $15,000 to $80,000. Price depends on load capacity (e.g., a 5-tonne crane costs ~$20,000–$35,000; a 20-tonne crane costs ~$50,000–$80,000).

Double-girder bridge cranes
Characteristics: More robust design; load capacities from 5 to 500 tonnes and spans from 10 to 50 meters. Used in large factories, metallurgical plants, and ports.
Prices: $50,000 to $2,000,000. For example, a 20-tonne crane costs ~$80,000–$150,000, a 100-tonne crane costs ~$300,000–$800,000, while ultra-heavy-duty models (500 tonnes) can cost millions of dollars.

By drive type
Electric bridge cranes
Characteristics: The most common type; powered by the electrical grid; low noise and emission levels. Suitable for most industrial environments. Prices: Included in the ranges above (single-girder and double-girder), as electric drive is standard.

By application
Bridge cranes for heavy industry
Characteristics: Reinforced structure; protection against high temperatures or corrosion (e.g., for the metallurgical or chemical industries).
Prices: 15–40% higher than standard models of the same load capacity class.

Light-duty warehouse bridge cranes
Characteristics: Lightweight, high-speed operation, designed for handling small loads (up to 5 tons).
Prices: $10,000 to $30,000.
