1 GENERAL
The GRN, GTL and GTR end carriages are top running end carriages for industrial cranes. GRN is used with side connection, GTL and GTR with top connection joint plates. The type codes for 2-wheel end carriages are GRN09, GRN11, GRN14, GRN16, GTL09, GTR09, GTR11, GTR14, GTR16, GTR20, GTR25, GTR32 and GTR40. 4-wheel end carriages are GTR20B, GTR25B, GTR32B and GTR40B, these are defined as bogie end trucks. The rail wheel diameters are 90, 110, 140, 160, 200, 250, 315 and 400 mm. The maximum wheel loads of the rail wheels are calculated based on the steel structure, the permissible surface pressure of the rail wheel, the maximum bearing capacity and the service life of the bearings. The rail wheels of the end carriage can not be re-aligned. The steel structure of the end carriage should not be changed or modified after machining, thus any kind of welding after machining is not allowed. When selecting the correct end carriage, following checks shall be made allowed value of dynamic wheel load is not exceeded allowed value of steel structure is not exceeded allowed value of end carriage and main girder joint is not exceeded The joint between the end carriage and the main girder is done as a bolt joint. In following document single girder crane is abbreviated as SG and double girder crane as DG. Permissible ambient temperature is as standard -20...+40 C. As option, ambient temperature area can be increased to be minimum -40 or maximum +50 C
Note! Ambient temperature being below -20 C, be sure that used lubricants (for example for bearings and travel drives) and used electrical components, for example, are still suitable. Also, some rail heating, heating of the electrical panels or other additional features might be needed.
Note! Ambient temperature being over +40 C, be sure that used electrical components, for example, are still suitable. Also, some cooling for electrical panels or other additional features might be needed. Table 1. Grade of steel material of the end truck acc. to ambient temperature. Ref. EN13001-3-1:2012

2 CONSTRUCTION
From Europeans standards EN 13001-1, EN 13001-2, Pr EN 13001-3-1 and EN 15011 together with Machine Directive have been used for designing and dimensioning these new end carriages. In addition to this, FEM1.001-1987/Revised edition 1998 and manufacturers experience have been used in the dimensioning of the end carriages. Acc. to EN standards, steel structure of these new end carriages have been dimensioned to stress history parameter value S2 and 63000 cycles with full crane load (return movement with empty crane). Wheels have been dimensioned to FEM 1Am and bearings to 800 hours with full crane load (return movement with empty crane), the design travelling speed being 32 or 40 m/min. End carriages are designed for use in crane group FEM A4. The calculation group for machinery has been FEM M4 and for component FEM E3. In cases with higher classifications than FEM A6, FEM E5 and/or FEM M6 consult with product specialist. Main parts of GTR and GRN end carriages
1. End carriage 2. Rail wheel (driven) 3. Rail wheel (idle) 4. Joint plate 5. Buffer 6. Joint beam (bogie end trucks) 7. Integrated derailment support
2.1
Steel structure
The steel structure of the end carriage is designed to withstand of the dynamic wheel loads, which are shown in Appendix A. The GRN& GTL09 and GTR0925 end carriages are made of rectangular hollow section. The GTR32 and GTR40 end carriages are manufactured as welded box type construction. The positions of the diaphragms are standardized with different joint plates. End carriages are supplied always with joint plates. Machining for wheel fixing, joint plate fixing position and the bogie joint beam is made with one fixing after assembly welding, in this way the alignment of the wheels is accurate. The end carriages are equipped with derailment supports at the ends of the end carriage. The material of the steel structure of the welded box type is S355J2+N / EN10025. (Equivalent to Fe52D yield strength = min. 355 N/mm2). The material of the steel structure of the rectangular hollow section is min. S355J0/EN10025 (Equivalent to Fe52C). Typical material for rectangular hollow sections is S355J2H/EN10025.

2.2 Rail wheels
The rail wheel diameters are D90, D110, D140, D160, D200, D250, D315 and D400 mm and for standard cases they are supplied with flanges. The material of the rail wheel is EN-GJS-700-2U (ductile iron). Running surface hardness is normally between 250 310 HB. If higher hardness is needed please consult with product specialists. The driving shafts and connections are individual for each end carriage. These shafts must be stated in the order of travelling unit. Exception is GTR40 with QM6 driving shaft, that must be ordered with end truck.
