ABSTRACT
The article presents the numerical investigation of the overhead crane’s energy consumption. The analysis is based on the hybrid
model of the crane consisting of numerical model of drive mechanisms as bridge, trolley, hoist and also experimentally measured
power consumption of each control unit. The numerical model was verified experimentally on the real crane. The investigation
focuses on analyzing the energy consumption of the overhead crane in relation both to the travelled distance and also for the lifting and lowering heights of a suspended payload. Particular attention was paid on the cases straightly related to the hoist, as a
main factor of improvements in the energetic efficiency of the overhead crane. Energy consumption was investigated for a variety
of magnitudes of transported mass
