Remote control overhead crane is one of the most commonly used lifting equipment in many industries such as the fabrication industry to load and unload materials. As the name implies, the crane is operated with remote control. During the operation, the operator holds a wireless transmitter and stays away from the loads within a certain distance, such as 30 meters to keep safety.
At present, there is a growing number of businesses selecting remote control for their overhead crane as a way to improve efficiency and safety. Therefore, remote control overhead crane is increasingly adopted in a large variety of industries to carry out multiple tasks of moving loads on the ground. The overhead crane equipment is designed in multiple configurations including single girder, double girder, top running and underhung, and customers can choose the type of overhead crane based on their practical needs.
Overhead crane remote control is generally preferred for a wide range of applications to keep the crane operator safe, so it is sometimes a better alternative for pendant control in terms of safety protection. However, in some applications, when it comes to a higher requirement for the lifting capacity and working environment, particularly for transporting large and heavy loads through a long distance or in a hazardous working environment such as steel mills, the cab operation is absolutely the first choice.

Single girder remote control crane parameters:
- Load capacity: 1-20t
- Span: 7.5-28.5m
- Lifting height: 6-18m
- Lifting speed: 0.8/5m/min
- Hoist running speed: 2-20m/min
- Crane running speed: 3-30m/min
- Work duty: A5

Double girder remote control crane parameters:
- Load capacity: 5-80t
- Span: 10.5-31.5m
- Lifting height: 6-18m
- Lifting speed: 0.4-5m/min
- Trolley running speed: 2-20m/min
- Crane running speed: 3-30m/min
- Work duty: A5

Benefits of Remote Control Overhead Crane
The remote control overhead crane has many advantages. Under the same condition of intended use, this type of over head crane can not only free the operator from the limitation of the cab, such as the visual limitation, but free from the pendant control cables as the long pendant cables have the risk of getting tangled in the crane or other objects, leading to serious accidents. Here are some benefits you should know about remote control overhead crane.
- The most marked benefit is high Remote control allows the operator to keep away from the heavy loads within a safe distance, creating a much safer working environment and reducing the risk of getting injured. It also offers a better view of the crane surroundings as the operator is free to move around and view the object from different angles, which helps the operator make sure the load path is safe.
- The remote control improves the productivity and working efficiency. Unlike the pendant control, the remote control enables the operatorto move around easily without concern of pendant cables getting tangled in obstacles. The operator also has a better view of the loads, which helps improve the accuracy of positioning and working efficiency during the crane operation.
- The remote control helps save manpower and reduce operational costs. On the one hand, remote control requires only an operator during the lifting process without the help of others, whereas the operator in a cab needs the assistance of a worker on the ground to provide other views of the loads and hand signals. On the other hand, the operator on the ground can do other tasks when not moving the loads. But when it comes with cab operation, the operator has to be confined to the cab and performs the sole crane operation.
- The overhead crane remote control has long service life and little maintenance cost. Unlike the pendant control, it has low cost without the need of frequent replacement. Remote control can be used for many years without damage except for the human factors.
- The remote control overhead crane has easy operation so that any ordinary worker can learn to operate the crane, and training an operator is a simple process, whereas the cab operation requires a professional cab driver with a more complex training
