Turning device installed on crane lifting beam is mainly used to achieve the posture flipping of heavy objects in the air within the range of 0° to 360°. Its core structure includes flipping mechanism, clamping mechanism, drive system and control system. The drive mode is usually electric drive, and the smooth flipping, rotation and locking of the workpiece are achieved through precise control. Turning device can be customized according to the different shapes and weights of the suspended carrier, such as double chain flipping, belt flipping and other methods. Some advanced equipment also integrates sensors and intelligent control modules to realize automatic detection of the center of gravity of the workpiece and precise control of the flipping angle, effectively avoiding misoperation and safety risks.
Main advantages of Turning device for crane
● After integrating the flipping device, it only needs to complete the lifting, flipping and positioning in the air, which significantly shortens the operation process.
● The positioning accuracy of the servo control model can reach ±1°, which is suitable for precision assembly and automation lines.
● It has a wide range of applications and is widely used in steel structure processing, automobile assembly lines, sand box molds, etc.
● The flipping process is completed under the main hook of the crane, without additional ground support or manual intervention, reducing the risk of high-altitude operations.
● Reduce the number of special turning tables, fixtures and manual handling links, and reduce equipment investment and labor costs.
Typical application cases
● Automobile manufacturing plant: In the body chassis assembly line, an electric servo turning device is introduced to turn the body frame 180° during the lifting process, and there is no need to lower the hook and manually turn it before welding.
● Steel structure processing: In the production of large bridge components, the electric turning device can realize the turning of H-shaped steel up to 10 meters long, replacing the traditional manual and roller bed, saving 30% of the layout space and greatly improving the operation safety.
● Wind power equipment manufacturing: In the production of wind power blades, the turning device can realize the 180° turning of the blade mold, avoiding manual operation in a small space.
Selection and implementation suggestions
● Determine the operation requirements: clarify the maximum load, turning angle and frequency; if it is precision assembly, it is recommended to select servo closed-loop control.
● Match with the crane: verify the load capacity and lifting speed of the main hook to ensure the coordination and safety of the turning device and the lifting system.
● Training and maintenance: Provide good operator training, establish daily inspection and regular maintenance systems, and extend the life of the equipment.
Turning device installed on crane lifting beam provides a more flexible, accurate, and safer material turning solution for various manufacturing industries. When selecting a model, customers should consider equipment performance and subsequent maintenance based on their own process characteristics and production capacity requirements to maximize the value of the turning device.
