PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
The Casting Crane is a specialized heavy‑duty overhead crane designed specifically for the demanding environments of steel mills, foundries, and non‑ferrous metal casting facilities. Engineered to handle molten metal ladles, heavy molds, and hot castings, this crane represents the highest tier of material handling equipment, combining exceptional structural strength, thermal protection, and fail‑safe safety systems.
TECHNICAL DATA
APPLICATION
1. Steel Melting Shops (Basic Oxygen Furnace / Electric Arc Furnace)
Ladle Transfer: Transporting molten steel ladles (50–400+ tons) from furnaces to ladle refining stations, continuous casting machines, or ingot teeming areas.
Hot Metal Charging: Lifting and tilting scrap charging buckets or hot metal transfer ladles for furnace feeding.
Furnace Maintenance: Handling furnace hoods, oxygen lances, and refractory components during relining and repair operations.
2. Continuous Casting Facilities Ladle Turret Feeding: Positioning molten steel ladles onto ladle turrets for continuous casting machine feed. Tundish Handling: Lifting and positioning tundishes for preheating, casting, and replacement. Mold & Segment Maintenance: Handling continuous casting molds, cooling segments, and withdrawal units during maintenance.
3. Ingot Teeming Operations Ladle Positioning: Transporting molten steel ladles to ingot molds arranged on teeming platforms. Mold Handling: Lifting and placing heavy ingot molds, bottom plates, and stool assemblies. Hot Top & Insulator Placement: Positioning hot tops, insulating covers, and exothermic materials on molds.
4. Foundries (Iron, Steel, Non‑Ferrous) Furnace Charging: Lifting and tilting scrap charging buckets, pig iron, and alloy materials into cupolas, induction furnaces, and arc furnaces. Molten Metal Transfer: Transporting molten metal ladles (iron, steel, aluminum, copper, bronze) from melting furnaces to pouring stations. Pouring Operations: Tilting ladles to pour molten metal into sand molds, permanent molds, or centrifugal casting machines with precision control.
5. Aluminum Smelters & Casthouses Hot Metal Transport: Lifting and moving aluminum melt ladles, crucibles, and transfer ladles from furnaces to casting stations. Furnace Tending: Handling furnace doors, hoods, and heat exchangers during melting and holding operations. Dross Handling: Lifting and tilting dross pots for skimming and dross processing.
6. Copper & Non‑Ferrous Smelters Anode & Cathode Handling: Lifting copper anodes, cathodes, and starter sheets in electrolytic refining operations. Converter Maintenance: Handling converter vessels, tuyeres, and refractory components. Slag Transport: Moving slag pots and slag ladles for granulation or disposal.
