Case Study: Engineered for the Elements – Dongqi Crane’s Outdoor MH Gantry Cranes Empower Moroccan Operations

Introduction

In 2025, Dongqi Crane undertook a project that perfectly illustrates our commitment to delivering robust solutions for challenging environments. We successfully designed, manufactured, and installed two heavy-duty MH-type Gantry Cranes for an industrial client in Morocco. Built specifically for demanding outdoor operation, these cranes now play a vital role in our client’s daily logistics and material handling under the open sky. This case study details our comprehensive approach, from custom engineering for weather resistance to hands-on international installation support.

Project Overview & Challenge

Our client in Morocco required powerful and reliable lifting equipment for outdoor yard operations, such as loading/unloading materials and handling heavy goods. The primary challenge was to provide cranes that could offer not just high performance, but also durability against environmental factors like sun, wind, and varying temperatures.

The Dongqi Solution: Robust Cranes Built for Outdoor Duty

Dongqi Crane delivered a tailored solution with two identical MH 25-ton Gantry Cranes, engineered from the ground up for outdoor resilience and reliability.

Key Specifications & Outdoor Features:

  • Type: MH Type Single Girder Gantry Crane
  • Capacity: 25 Tons | Span: 20 Meters | Lifting Height: 6 Meters
  • Power Supply: 380V, 50Hz, 3-Phase
  • Outdoor Design Highlights:
    • Weather-Resistant Construction: The hoist and electrical components are housed within a protective enclosure, offering increased resistance to dust and moisture.
    • Corrosion Protection: The steel structure features a robust anti-corrosion coating system, extending the crane’s service life in outdoor conditions.
    • Sturdy Design: Reinforced construction ensures stability and safe operation even in occasional windy conditions typical of outdoor yards.
    • Reliable Performance: Designed to operate consistently across a range of ambient temperatures, ensuring productivity year-round.

Seamless Installation & Commissioning: Our Hands-On Commitment

Understanding the importance of correct setup for long-term reliability, Dongqi Crane deployed a team of engineers to Morocco. They managed the entire on-site process, ensuring a flawless transition from delivery to full operation.

Our experts provided:

  • Supervision of the assembly and precise alignment of the gantry crane rails on the outdoor foundation.
  • Professional installation, wiring, and weatherproofing of all electrical systems.
  • Comprehensive testing of all functions – hoisting, trolley, and gantry travel – under real outdoor conditions.
  • Operational and safety training for the client’s ground crew.

Documenting the Process

Our team captured the key installation phases with detailed photos and videos. This visual record showcases not only the scale and quality of the equipment but also the professional execution of an outdoor industrial installation.

Conclusion: Delivering Reliability, Rain or Shine

The successful deployment of these two outdoor-rated gantry cranes in Morocco underscores Dongqi Crane’s strength as a global partner for tough applications. We go beyond manufacturing—we engineer solutions for specific environments and support them with direct expertise. This project is a testament to our ability to empower industries worldwide with durable, high-performance lifting equipment that stands up to the elements.
