To obtain an accurate quote from EOT Crane, you need to clarify the following information with the supplier:
1. Technical Specifications (Core)EOT Crane Lifting Capacity: 5-800 ton electric bridge cranes are available according to customer needs.
Span: Track center distance. This is the most critical parameter affecting steel consumption and price.
Lifting Height: Standard height (e.g., 9m/12m) and extra-high design costs differ.
Working Class/Region: Such as FEM 1Am, 2m, 3m or ISO A5, A6, A7. The higher the level, the higher the requirements for the motor and structure.
Power supply standard: such as 415V/50Hz/3ph (British Standard), 460V/60Hz/3ph (American Standard), etc., the motor must be compatible.
Control method: cab, ground wired handle, wireless remote control. The remote control frequency and certification (such as CE, FCC) must be clearly specified.
2. International Certifications and Standards (Determine market access and cost)CE certification: Mandatory requirement for export to the EU and many CE-recognized countries. Includes a complete set of technical documents, MD Directive conformity declaration, and safety assessment, which significantly increases costs.
Other certifications: such as GOST for Russian-speaking regions, AS/NZ for Australia, UkrSEPRO for Ukraine, etc. If no requirements are specified, production will proceed according to national standards.
Electrical standards: Whether the electrical cabinet and components comply with IEC standards, or whether international brands such as Schneider Electric and Siemens are specified.
3. Packaging and TransportationPackaging requirements: Standard export wooden crates (fumigated/IPPC marked) or special moisture-proof and shockproof packaging. Port of Destination: Used to calculate ocean freight (required for CIF quotations). Oversized cargo may involve deck transport.
4. Trade TermsEXW: Ex-works price; you are responsible for all export and transportation.
FOB: Most commonly used. The supplier is responsible for transporting the goods to a Chinese port and loading them onto the ship.
CIF: The supplier is responsible for ocean freight and insurance to the port of destination.
DDP: All-inclusive door-to-door service; most expensive but most hassle-free.
5. After-Sales ServiceInstallation Guidelines: Does the supplier provide a detailed English installation manual, drawings, and circuit diagrams?
Remote Guidance: Is this included?
On-site Installation by Chinese Engineers: Is on-site guidance required? Additional costs include visas, travel, and insurance.
How to Obtain an Accurate Export Quote from Weihua
Contact Directly: Visit the Weihua Group official website
https://www.weihuacraneglobal.com/, find the contact information for the International Business Department or Overseas Marketing Department, and send an inquiry directly.
Prepare a detailed Request for Quotation (RFQ): Compile all information from the "Technical Specifications" and "Key Factors" sections above into a formal document, ideally including a factory layout diagram, to obtain the most accurate quote.
Clarify Quotation Content: Require the supplier to clearly list the following in their quotation: price terms (e.g., FOB Shanghai), payment terms (usually 30% prepayment, 70% against copy of bill of lading), production cycle, warranty period, technical standards and certifications, and a detailed configuration list.
Summary and Recommendations: For standard products ranging from 5 to 30 tons, an FOB quote can be requested directly. For large projects exceeding 50 or 100 tons, it is recommended to first provide preliminary technical parameters to obtain a budget price, followed by detailed technical clarification and commercial negotiations. This may necessitate signing a technical agreement as an appendix to the contract.
