The subject of the article is an analysis of the evolution of selected systems and means of technological transport, using the example of selected crane assemblies: load-bearing structures, drive mechanisms and their components, motors, power supply, mechanism control, and construction materials.1. INTRODUCTION
Over the years, there has been an evolution in the scope of transport: from unit loads (piece goods, shaped goods) to unified loads integrated on the basis of containers (EU pallets). As a result of the application of lean management concepts in industry and the development of automation and information technology, there has been an evolution in the construction of technological transport equipment.
The subject of the article is an analysis of the evolution of selected systems and means of technological transport, using the example of selected crane assemblies.
2. CRANE LOAD-BEARING STRUCTURES
The leading entity in Poland for years in the field of cranes was OBRDiUT DETRANS in Bytom. The evolution of crane structures was traced using the example of port crane and gantry crane designs. (…)
