The core difference between manual cantilever cranes and electric cantilever cranes lies in the lifting power, which brings about differences in operation and cost. Here are the key comparisons for you to help you quickly understand:
·Lifting power: The manual cantilever crane is operated manually by a chain hoist or a trolley by hand; the electric cantilever crane uses an electric hoist, which is controlled by buttons or remote controls. · Operation and efficiency: manual models are laborious and slow to operate, and are not suitable for frequent hoisting; electric models are easy, fast, and efficient, which can greatly reduce the labor burden. ·Load capacity: Manual cantilever cranes are usually used for light loads (generally below 1 ton, a few can reach a few tons); electric cantilever cranes have a wide range of coverage. · Structure and cost: The manual model has a simple structure, cheap price, and low maintenance cost; the electric model has a complex structure, high initial investment, and requires professional maintenance in the later stage.
