The picture shows the super crane
In recent years, with the wind power in the global market hot, its supporting installation equipment, but also won the attention of various countries, China is known as the infrastructure demon, but also in the domestic large-scale wind farm construction, so in the field of supporting equipment, naturally can not lag behind, in this context, China made the world's largest crane, and debut is the peak, a one-time can lift thousands of tons of heavy objects, even the United States and Japan do not have, to this regard to Germany led by the Western manufacturing power said: It seems that in the field of cranes, China is already completely ahead.
This crane is the ZAT18000H from Zoomlion Heavy Industries, so how powerful is it? Crane domestic seen more, mobile crane domestic is not uncommon, but this crane can generally only hoist dozens of tons of heavy objects, heavy crane can reach hundreds of tons, if you want to reach the level of thousands of tons, then only with the help of gantry crane, but gantry crane is not convenient to move, can only be installed on site, and its hoisting height, directly limited by the height of the gantry crane, now need to install a wind turbine, it is necessary to develop a super mobile crane.
This also gave birth to a huge market demand, so a number of large domestic construction equipment manufacturers have begun to enter the field of cranes, of which Zoomlion Heavy Industry, XCMG Group and Sany Heavy Industry, are the leaders in this regard, of which ZAT18000H is the most, the maximum lifting height of this crane can reach 140 meters, the lifting quality can reach 1800 tons, before the record was created by XCMG Group's 1600 tons of cranes, and can surpass it, only China's own heavy industry enterprises.
Compared with the general crane, zaT18000H's working environment is often in the wild, because the land wind motor is often installed on the grassland, or deep in the mountains, so the crane must also have a strong off-road performance, because in the wild, need to face a variety of complex road conditions, some places even have no road to drive, the crane wants to go in, absolutely not an easy thing, so the chassis technology used in this super crane is not general, Much like the chassis of a truck transporting ICBM, and for ease of steering, multiple pairs of tires in this truck chassis can be deflected to reduce the turning radius.
In the installation of the wind turbine, the crane arrived at the scene, can be deployed within 2 hours, and quickly put into the hoisting operation, compared with the traditional wind motor installation, the use of ZAT18000H crane, can be a wind motor installation time, from the original week to within a day, greatly improving the work efficiency, and after the completion of the hoisting, can also be put away at the fastest speed, and put into the next step of the installation of the wind motor, after seeing the heavy industry to achieve such a huge achievement, Germany and other enterprises also hope to catch up, and has announced their own new super crane, Libriel's TM11200-9.1 crane, the lifting height can reach 170 meters, but in the lifting quality, it is far inferior to Chinese products, and the cost is also very expensive, not the average country can afford to equip.
Nowadays, China's cranes have gone abroad to help other countries carry out wind power construction, and the rent alone can reach millions every month, with the completion of wind farms at home and abroad, the world has truly realized China's strength.
