Segment Lifter —Enhance Bridge Construction Efficiency
Mar. 16th, 2024
Segment Lifter is one of the most indispensable equipment for bridge construction. It is a specialized lifting equipment. It is used to transport recast concrete segments and erect segmental steel box girders at bridge construction sites. It is mostly used in the construction of balanced cantilever viaducts and cable-stayed bridges.
 
So, how does it operate efficiently to save human resources and speed up construction?

1. Efficiency is Reflected in:
In the construction process of Segment Lifter, it can be used on prefabricated segment balanced cantilever Bridges, which can be poured and the segments can be transported under the span.
 
At the same time, these lifters do not need to span from one pier to the other, the Two segment lifters work in tandem with its mirror equivalent, one of which and the lift are erected in the same direction from the pier, The other elevator stands parallel in the opposite direction.
 
Segment lifter mainly divided into fixed deck crane, luffing deck crane and tower type deck crane and its derivatives products “shore crane"
The lift is equipped with an electric winch or winch jack system and is fired forward by a hydraulic system. Lifts can also be equipped with steel wheels/rails or rubber tires for added maneuverability.
 
The efficiency of different types of segment lifters is reflected in different aspects:
 
For construction areas with working height restrictions, the beam-type segment lifter can operate efficiently under narrow headroom, and it has flexible lateral and longitudinal adjustment functions, which can accurately position the segments and enable easy jointing.

The wheeled segment lifter can run on rails and steel wheels to facilitate movement and can be mounted on rubber tires. When each pair of segments is erected, the rails are extended and the track system allows the collection of segments from one or both ends of the cantilever. In terms of overall construction, due to the movable performance of the tire-type segment lifter, it does not require rails and can effectively reduce temporary work.
In areas with only dock delivery access, the segment lifter can more efficiently pick up segments, transport them and place them on the jib tip, and a flexible slew system allows the segment to rotate 360 degrees.

The lightest frame-type segment lifter launch system is easy to operate and can complete launch quickly.
 
These lifters can expedite the placement of prefabricated phases, minimizing on-site assembly time and thus speeding up construction schedules.
It can also be equipped with a wireless remote control device and manual backup system for convenient operation and recording.

2. Other Outstanding Features fo Segment Lifter
 
①Safe and Reliable
Segment lifter has designed a professional safety protection system, such as installing a hydraulic safety arm for the fixation stage, as well as safety lights and sound signals to indicate segment lifting, so that safety performance is maximized. In addition, features such as load sensors, emergency stop mechanisms and fail-safe systems have been specially designed to ensure maximum construction safety.
The automated lifting of this product reduces the manual handling of heavy segments and can effectively improve on-site construction safety for construction workers.
 
②Wide Range of Use
Tubular lifts can be designed to grow from 2.5 meters to 4 meters and weigh from 60 tons to 120 tons.
 
Variable amplitude segment lifts are designed to install segments weighing between 200 and 1200 tons in a variety of design configurations for different applications, such as ramps, narrow locations or areas that are usually difficult to pass through riverbeds. For different space height restrictions, segment lifters are equipped for efficient construction.
 
③Strong Wind Resistance
The main structure of the segment elevator is a diamond truss structure, which is easy to disassemble and transfer to the construction site. It has high wind resistance and ensures safe operation.
