What is a Guyed Tower Crane?
Tensioner tower cranes are one of the most widely used tower crane types worldwide. This special type of crane takes its name from the fork on the turntable and the tension irons that go from this fork to the boom and tail. This fork is responsible for balancing the boom and tail of the tower crane so that the crane can operate stably.
The most important feature that distinguishes the tensioned tower cranes from the other type of tower crane, the untensioned tower crane, is the fork and the tension irons going from this fork to the tail and boom. This unique design offers many advantages to tower crane operators in terms of lifting capacity and manoeuvrability.
Why is a Guyed Tower Crane Used?
Guyed tower cranes are powerful lifting equipment used to lift, transport and place large and heavy loads; they are used in many industrial applications such as construction, assembly, loading-unloading, bridge and railway construction. Thanks to their high lifting capacity and reach capabilities, these cranes support the construction of large structures, assemble large machinery, load containers, transport iron pieces and are used in many heavy operations, thus increasing productivity in industries and providing a safe working environment.
Why is a Guyed Tower Crane Used?
Tensioner tower cranes are the ideal equipment to successfully perform demanding tasks such as lifting and transporting loads up and away, both in large infrastructure projects and when used on high-rise construction sites, in crowded urban areas or on large open sites.
Why Should Tensioner Tower Cranes be Preferred?
In construction sites where the working area is regular and tower cranes do not interfere with each other, guyed tower cranes should be preferred. However, an important factor to be considered when making this choice is the height difference of the location where the tower crane will be placed.
Because the fork on the turntable can hit the boom of the other tower crane, so the height difference between the tower cranes is important. Therefore, carefully planning the placement of the tower crane within the construction site will allow you to fully utilise the advantages of guyed tower cranes.
