Steel Industry Overhead Crane Application Scenarios

The steel industry overhead crane is widely used in various workshops and venues of steel production enterprises, covering the entire production chain of steelmaking, rolling, and finishing. Its main application scenarios include:

• 1. Steelmaking Workshop: Lifting and transferring molten steel ladles, tundishes, and scrap steel; cooperating with electric furnaces, converters, and continuous casting machines to complete smelting and casting operations.
• 2. Rolling Workshop: Handling steel billets, slabs, and finished steel products (such as steel bars, steel plates, steel pipes, and coils); matching with rolling mills, straightening machines, and shearing machines to realize continuous production.
• 3. Finished Product Warehouse: Stacking, sorting, and loading/unloading finished steel products, ensuring orderly storage and efficient outbound of products.
• 4. Maintenance Workshop: Lifting and maintaining large-scale steelmaking equipment, rolling machinery, and other heavy-duty equipment, reducing maintenance difficulty and improving maintenance efficiency.

Steel Industry Overhead Crane Core Features

Combining the special working conditions of the steel industry, the overhead crane is optimized and upgraded in terms of structure, material, and control system, with the following core features:

• 1. High-Temperature Resistance: The key components (such as hooks, wire ropes, and motors) are made of high-temperature resistant materials and equipped with heat insulation protection devices, which can work stably in high-temperature environments up to 600℃, avoiding performance degradation caused by high temperature.
• 2. Heavy-Load Capacity: Adopting a reinforced box-type bridge structure and high-strength lifting components, the load capacity ranges from 5t to 500t, which can meet the lifting needs of various heavy materials in the steel industry, with strong bearing capacity and stable operation.
• 3. Dust and Corrosion Resistance: The electrical system is equipped with a sealed protective cover, and the metal components are treated with anti-corrosion and anti-rust coating, which can effectively resist dust, corrosive fumes, and moisture in the steel workshop, extending the service life of the equipment.
• 4. Safe and Reliable: Equipped with multiple safety protection devices, including overload protection, limit switch, emergency stop button, anti-sway device, and voltage loss protection. It can quickly respond to abnormal situations during operation, prevent safety accidents, and ensure the safety of operators and equipment.
• 5. Precise Control: Adopting advanced frequency conversion control technology and PLC control system, the lifting, lifting, and traveling movements are smooth and accurate, with stepless speed regulation function, which can realize precise positioning of materials, avoid collision and damage to materials and equipment, and improve operation accuracy.
• 6. Easy Maintenance: The structure is designed reasonably, with convenient maintenance access and detachable components, which is convenient for daily inspection, maintenance, and replacement of parts, reducing maintenance costs and downtime.
