12m U71mn Iscr70/Iscr80/Iscr100/Iscr120 Crane Rail
Crane Rail
Crane rail is used in the crane railroad. The crane rail has its own material, dimensions, standard, and sizes.The track supported by the runway beams on which the crane travels.
Normally, rails are attached to the top of the runway beam of top running cranes. The wheels of the crane run on the rail. Crane rails connect with rail bolts or hold down fasteners for easier installation and adjustments. Crane rials significantly reduce friction, providing for smooth crane travel. They are extremely durable due to high metal hardness properties and will typically outlast other common rail systems.

Differences between crane rail and common steel rail
Crane rail is not similar to steel rails that used in metro tracks or high speed railway tracks. It has its own material, dimensions, standard, and sizes. Compared with heavy rail or light rail, the height of crane rail is low, its head width is wider, and its waist size is also bigger. Crane rail is designed for carrying heavy loads and is used in the laying of crane track for port building.
Important details of crane rail you may know
The straightness of the track line, the rail gauge, and the height difference between the two rails have a great influence on the running performance of the crane, so it must be installed according to the accuracy required by the specification.
The rails should be securely fastened to prevent sliding along the foundation.
During the use, the track may be deformed, and the rail head is easy to wear. Therefore, the rail and the foundation should be delectably connected by rail bolts or other rail fasteners as much as possible for adjustment and replacement.
How To Choose Right Crane Rail?
- Load capacity: determine the maximum weight and load that the crane needs to carry. The load capacity of the guide rail must be enough to support these loads, and consider reserving a certain margin of safety.
- Working environment: Consider the working environment in which the guide rail is located, including temperature, humidity, corrosivity and other factors. Different environments may require the use of different materials and coatings of the guide rail.
- Moving speed: Determine the moving speed required by the crane. If you need to move at a higher speed, choose a lower frictional resistance and higher guideway surface smoothness.
- Guideway type: Select the appropriate type of guideway according to the needs, such as sliding guideway, rolling guideway, linear guideway and so on. Different types of guide rails are suitable for different scenarios.
- Precision requirements: According to the application requirements, determine the precision and stability that the crane needs to maintain during the movement, and select a high-precision guide rail system.
