Furthermore, our range of equipment includes self-launching systems, hydraulic cranes, gantries, and more, each designed to comply with international codes and standards. To meet your project’s needs, we can customize our machines for specific applications, whether you are building in rivers, valleys, highways, or urban environments.

Hercules Bridge Construction Equipment

We have organized our extensive range of machinery into logical categories to help you find the perfect solution for your project.

Specialized Gantries and Travellers

  1. Hercules Form Traveller We design the Form Traveller for the cast-in-situ construction of balanced cantilever bridges. Consequently, its flexible design allows for customization to meet client specifications, ensuring compliance with international codes. Additionally, the self-launching system provides efficient setup, with an additional back-launching option for safe dismantling.

    • Applications: Balanced cantilever bridges

    • Key Features: Self-launching, customizable design, code-compliant

  2. Hercules Launching Gantry The Launching Gantry is essential for erecting precast segmental viaducts using span-by-span and balanced cantilever methods. We design this crane system according to standards like FEM 1.001 and other international codes. Because of this, its self-launching capabilities make it ideal for both straight and curved bridge construction.

    • Applications: Precast segmental viaducts, straight and curved bridges

    • Key Features: Self-launching, suitable for both straight and curved bridges, code-compliant

  3. Hercules Segment Lifter For constructing precast segmental balanced cantilever bridges, we use the Segment Lifter, which launches via a hydraulic system that ensures safe and controlled movement. Additionally, the system adheres to FEM 1.001 and international safety standards.

    • Applications: Precast segmental balanced cantilever bridges

    • Key Features: Hydraulic launch system, self-launching, code-compliant

Beam Erection and General Lifting Solutions

  1. Hercules Beam Launcher The Beam Launcher facilitates the erection of precast beam bridges, specifically using the span-by-span method. It supports U-beams, T-beams, and I-beams, ensuring efficient installation over rivers, valleys, and highways. We also design the crane and steel structure to meet FEM 1.001 standards.

    • Applications: Precast beam bridges, spans over rivers or highways

    • Key Features: Self-launching, suitable for large spans, international code-compliant

  2. Hercules Gantry Crane We design our Gantry Crane with outdoor and indoor options to meet FEM 1.001 or other relevant international codes. Moreover, we customize these cranes to client specifications, making them ideal for handling heavy loads in open spaces.

    • Applications: Outdoor and indoor heavy lifting, large-scale infrastructure projects

    • Key Features: Customizable design, heavy-duty capacity, code-compliant

  3. Hercules Overhead Crane We offer both double-girder and single-girder overhead cranes for indoor and outdoor applications. Specifically, we design them based on client requirements, ensuring they meet specific lifting needs for construction and industrial projects.

    • Applications: Industrial and construction lifting tasks

    • Key Features: Customizable, suitable for various environments, code-compliant

Custom Fabrication and Transport Equipment

  1. Hercules Steel Fabrication Our fully integrated manufacturing facility can handle all types of steel fabrication needs. For instance, using modern machinery and advanced techniques, we execute high-quality production with detailed quality assurance procedures.

    • Applications: Custom steel fabrication for construction projects

    • Key Features: High-quality production, flexible capabilities, quality assurance

  2. Hercules Straddle Carrier The Straddle Carrier offers unmatched flexibility in handling bulky loads in both open and confined areas. Essentially, unlike traditional gantry cranes, the straddle carrier can travel in multiple directions, providing maneuverability and efficiency for transportation tasks on construction sites.

    • Applications: Handling heavy loads, confined and open spaces

    • Key Features: Flexible travel, high maneuverability, customizable

  3. Hercules Tyre Trolley We designed the Tyre Trolley for transporting precast concrete or steel girders across construction sites. In practice, this device can be modular or non-modular, based on the client’s specific requirements for transportation efficiency.

    • Applications: Precast concrete or steel girder transport

    • Key Features: Customizable, modular design

  4. Special Engineering Solution We provide specialized solutions for difficult beam installation conditions, such as those involving low headroom or viaducts on top of spans. Therefore, we tailor these solutions to ensure seamless construction despite site challenges.

    • Applications: Complex beam installations, low headroom conditions

    • Key Features: Tailored solutions, overcoming challenging conditions

Advantages of Hercules Bridge Construction Equipment

  • Efficiency: Our self-launching systems and specialized machinery ensure that our clients complete every step of bridge construction quickly and effectively, saving both time and resources.

  • Safety: In addition, our hydraulic systems, code-compliant designs, and custom solutions provide safety during operation, even in challenging environments.

  • Precision: Designed to meet international standards, Hercules equipment guarantees the accuracy and reliability needed for large-scale projects.

  • Customization: Similarly, every piece of equipment is customizable to meet your specific needs, ensuring optimal performance for each project.
