Mini Spider Crane Working Principle:
The mini spider crane adopts a rubber crawler-type hydraulic traveling device, and the hoisting, telescopic, undulating, and rotating devices are all driven by hydraulic pressure; the whole machine adopts the design and optimization concept of three-dimensional modeling, finite element analysis, and calculation of the whole machine, which has good flexibility of the whole machine, It has the advantages of convenient operation, light and flexible operation, reliable and convenient use by maintenance parties, etc. The spider crane can install glass under the roof by using the vacuum glass suction cup installed on the search hook; the spider crane was born to complete the glass installation work more efficiently, and the spider crane is widely used in indoor, narrow spaces and narrow passages.
Case Study – A Portuguese Client Used YG Spider Crane to Complete a Historical Building Restoration Project in Lisbon’s Old Town
- Client Background: A Portuguese historical building conservation company specializing in the restoration of historical buildings in Lisbon’s Old Town faced a core challenge in renovating the 18th-century church roof: the narrow streets of the Old Town (only 1.2 meters wide at their narrowest point), limited space in the church courtyard, and the inability of traditional cranes to access the site; furthermore, the roof components were mostly made of precious wood and stone, requiring extremely stable hoisting, and the EU had stringent requirements for noise and environmental emissions from indoor and outdoor operations.
- Product Used: YG mini spider crane (electric model) Solution: This mini spider crane, folded down to only 70 cm wide, easily navigates the narrow streets of the Old Town, entering the courtyard through the church’s side door without damaging surrounding historical buildings or roads; the electric model produces zero emissions and noise levels below 55 decibels, fully complying with Portuguese environmental standards, avoiding disturbance to nearby residents and disrupting the church’s tranquil atmosphere; the spider-shaped outriggers quickly level the irregular stone slabs of the church, and combined with precise wireless remote control, ensured stable hoisting of the roof’s wooden trusses and stone tiles, maximizing the safety of the artifacts.
- Usage Results: The project duration was shortened by 25% compared to the original plan; no street or church walls needed to be dismantled to widen access, saving additional renovation costs; no components were damaged during hoisting, achieving 100% compliance with cultural relic protection standards; the equipment can be operated by a single person, reducing manpower and lowering overall construction costs by 30%.
- Client Testimonial (Portuguese Translation): “The YG mini spider crane is the ideal equipment for the restoration of ancient buildings in the old town! It allows for unimpeded passage through narrow streets, the electric mode is environmentally friendly and quiet, and the hoisting is precise and stable, perfectly protecting historical components. The manufacturer’s multilingual operation manual and rapid response to local European technical support ensured the smooth progress of our project, and we have already recommended it to other colleagues in the field of ancient building preservation!” — Miguel Silva, Project Manager, a Portuguese ancient building preservation company
