Tandem crane system in sheet pile production facilities

Industrial crane with magnetic spreader beam

The cranes are used for transporting sheet piles, either in standalone or tandem mode. Crane operation can be fully remote or controlled from a special operator platform located on the crane girders. The system is equipped with specialized spreader beams with magnets, whose vertical movement is enabled by wire rope hoists.

Applications:

• Transport of sheet piles, rolled profiles used for constructing watertight retaining walls (so-called Larsen walls).
• Transport of rolled profiles and steel structures.

Technical Description:

• Each double-girder crane is equipped with hoists featuring telescopic columns.
• Magnetic spreader beams are mounted on the telescopic columns.
• The electromagnets are attached to pivoting and rotating slings.
• Pivoting slings allow for a linear arrangement of the magnets in a single row for transporting a single sheet pile or in two rows for paired sheet piles.
• The cranes can operate independently or in tandem.
• Tandem operation is enabled by a mechanical coupling and an automatic communication system between the cranes.
• Due to the presence of machinery and installations in the hall, the cranes are equipped with a workspace limitation system.
• Crane operation is controlled either from a cabin or remotely via a radio system.
• The specified parameters can be fully customized to meet the user's needs.
