Compared with flexible beam system (also known as KBK, KBK track, flexible crane system, etc.). ), the advantages of rigid fixed track, especially the closed track patented by Gaobo, are as follows:
● It can provide better clearance without additional steel structure as support, which is very suitable for workshops with dense space and strict clearance requirements;
● Less risk of loose fasteners;
● Less moving parts and less maintenance;
● Load positioning is easier and more accurate;
● Self-supporting installation can be realized (the flexible beam system needs to install a separate supporting structure, which will greatly increase the cost);
● Less steel is used, so it is cheaper and lighter (dead weight);
● No safety rope is required;
● There will be no "oblique walking" on the fixed track;
● Anti-interference railcar;
● Truss-type fixed track can play a supporting role between supporting columns and reduce the need for additional structural steel.
Gaobo is a wholly American-owned enterprise, and its headquarters in China is located in Tianjin Binhai New Area.
