Overhead Clamp Crane for Ingot, Billet & Slab Handling

Overhead Clamp Crane for Ingot, Billet & Slab Handling

Clamp crane is a special used overhead crane for steel mill and rolling mill for semi products such as, ingot, billet, and slab handling, which is specially efficiency for high-temperature semi-steel handling . The overhead crane can be used to handle slabs with temperature more than 650 ℃ when lifting high-temperature slabs. The clamp cranes are usually process designed overhead cranes for unique steel mill application. Contact us to get your customized designed steel mill cranes for your application.

Ingot , slab & billet cranes

A slab and billet crane is a highly maneuverable electric overhead crane or bridge crane that transports large and heavy pieces of slabs and billets, a types of hot and soft metal, from the melt shop to their next procedures. Because the melt shop is so dangerous, it is usually located some distance away from the other production site or workshops. The slab and billet crane with special designed clamps feeds slabs and billets into shaping rollers, transports the metal to be reheated in another furnace before shaping, transports the shaped steel to another conveyor for further processing, or transport it to a storage area.

To address the challenges of handling either hot and soft metal or cooler slab or billet, the clamp crane employs a number of Smart Features such as Anti Sway Control, Slack Rope Prevention, and Target Positioning, which enable overhead crane operators to perform complex handling with ease operation. The slab and billet handling overhead cranes can be tailored with your specifications, with semi automation or full automation according to your lifting requirements and application conditions.

Yuantai clamp cranes are designed for steel mill material handling, i.e, billet, ingot, block, slab, etc. The overhead crane with specially desinged lifters, with horizontal and vertical clampping tongs to handle rectangular and circular ingots. And also, a complete steel mill material handling solution are available from vertical drop casting, continuous casting, slab and billet storage, scalping, and furnace loading, etc.

Clamp crane for ingot

Ingot  Ingot

Ingot

Ingots are large rough castings metal, which are designed for efficienty storage and transportation. Typically, the form is square or rectangle-shaped with wide fillets. The big end is typically pointing downward as they taper.

A piece of relatively pure material, usually metal, that has been cast into a shape suitable for additional processing is called an ingot.

It is the first stage of the semi-finished casting products used in the production of steel. To generate a functional end product, ingots typically require a second shaping process, such as cold/hot working, cutting, or milling.

Billet

A billet is a length of metal with a round or square cross-section that has a surface area of less than 36 in2 (230 cm2). Billets can be produced immediately through continuous casting, extrusion, or hot rolling an ingot or bloom. The subsequent processing of billets involves profile rolling and drawing. The finished goods include wire and bar stock.

Clamp crane for slab handling

Slab Slab

Slab

A slab is a rectangular-cross-section length of metal. The slab is formed either directly through continuous casting or indirectly through rolling an ingot on a slabbing mill. Slabs are typically processed further through flat rolling, skelping, and pipe rolling. Sheet metal, plates, strip metal, pipes, and tubes are common end products. Slab is primarily produced in blast furnaces. One reason to preferentially produce slab via the BF route is to get high quality.
