Drum Classification
By Installation Type
Fixed Drum
Mounted on a stationary machine frame without position change. Example: hoisting drum on an overhead crane.Moving Drum
Moves together with the actuator (e.g., lifting trolley). Example: trolley travel drum on a gantry crane.Rotary Drum
Can rotate with the slewing mechanism. Example: luffing drum on a tower crane.By Functional Characteristics
Single‑Layer Winding Drum
Features a standard helical groove and winds only one layer of wire rope, resulting in low wear and long service life. Suitable for high‑precision lifting equipment.Multi‑Layer Winding Drum
Typically has a smooth or shallow‑grooved surface and can wind multiple layers of wire rope, offering high rope storage capacity. Suitable for long‑stroke equipment such as mine hoists.Automatic Rewinding Drum
Equipped with an internal spring or hydraulic balance system for automatic retraction of flexible elements. Examples: fire hose reel, cable reel drum.Other Crane Accessories
