The Grab Hook Dual-Purpose Bridge Crane (QEN Type) is a versatile overhead crane manufactured by Henan Mine, featuring two independent lifting mechanisms on a single trolley—one equipped with a hook for heavy individual loads and the other with a grab bucket for bulk materials—eliminating the need for separate cranes . This crane operates with a double-box-girder bridge structure and high-duty class A6 to A8 for continuous heavy service, with the hook mechanism typically rated for lifting capacities of 5-16 tons and the grab bucket handling 0.75-5.2 cubic meters of material per cycle . Designed for general bulk and heavy load handling, this crane is NOT suitable for environments with flammable, explosive, or corrosive atmospheres, nor for lifting molten metal, toxic materials, or flammable goods .

The crane features double-girder box structure, high-duty class A6 to A8 for continuous operation, and flexible control options including cabin, pendant, or remote. It is widely used in ports, power plants, stockyards, steel mills, mines, cement plants, fertilizer plants, and waste treatment centers.

Core Applications – Grab Hook Dual-Purpose Bridge Crane
1.Ports & Bulk Terminals – Uses the grab bucket to unload coal, ore, sand, or grain from vessels, while the hook handles heavy machinery, steel coils, and equipment on the same dock without changing cranes .
2.Power Plants – Employs the grab for coal unloading and stockpile management, while the hook lifts heavy plant components such as motors, pumps, and replacement parts for maintenance .
3.Steel Mill Scrap Yards – Grabs mixed scrap metal and bulk raw materials like limestone and coke, then uses the hook to lift heavy scrap buckets, pig iron, and furnace charging boxes .
4.Foundries & Smelting Plants – Handles bulk sand, flux, and coke with the grab, while the hook lifts pig iron, alloy additions, and heavy molds for cupola or induction furnace charging .
5.Cement Plants & Quarries – Transfers crushed limestone, gypsum, and clinker using the grab, while the hook lifts heavy mill liners, grinding balls, and maintenance equipment .
6.Warehouse & Distribution Centers – Unloads bulk grain or fertilizer from rail cars with the grab, then switches to hook for moving pallets, drums, and heavy equipment within the same facility .
