At DQCRANES, we pride ourselves on delivering tailored lifting solutions to meet the unique needs of our global clientele. Recently, we had the privilege of designing and supplying a 10 ton
magnetic overhead crane for an esteemed client in Indonesia. This specialized crane was engineered to handle cold steel coils vertically, addressing the client’s specific operational requirements.
Client's Background
Our client is a leading steel manufacturer in Indonesia, specializing in producing and processing cold steel coils. As part of their operations, they required a reliable and efficient lifting solution to streamline the handling of vertically positioned steel coils. The client’s facility is a high-demand environment, where precision, safety, and efficiency are critical for maintaining productivity and meeting customer expectations.
Client's Requirements
The client approached DQCRANES with the following requirements:
- A crane with an electromagnet can handle steel coils weighing up to 10 tons.
- A round magnetic lifting mechanism to securely hold the steel coils in a vertical position during transportation within the facility.
- Handle steel coils with an outer diameter of 950mm, an inner diameter of 500mm, a height of 1000mm, and a maximum weight of 5 tons vertically.
- A robust and durable design suited for continuous operation in a demanding industrial environment.
- Compliance with safety standards to ensure operator safety and equipment reliability.
- Timely delivery and installation to minimize downtime and integrate seamlessly into their production workflow.
10 Ton Magnetic Overhead Crane Solution
After a thorough analysis of the client’s needs, DQCRANES proposed a 10 ton
Double Girder Overhead Crane equipped with a magnet. This solution was specifically designed to handle vertically positioned steel coils with maximum efficiency and safety.
Key Components of the Design:
- Double Girder Structure: The dual girders provide a stable platform for the trolley and hoist, allowing for smooth movement and precise positioning of loads.
- Round Magnet: The overhead crane magnets are designed to securely lift and transport cold steel coils in a vertical orientation. This specialized magnet ensures a firm grip on the material, reducing the risk of slippage or damage.
- electric hoist Trolley: The crane with electromagnet features a double girder hoist trolley system for efficient lifting and lowering of steel coils. This automation enhances productivity while minimizing manual labor.
- Control System: Advanced control systems, including remote operation and safety interlocks, allow operators to handle materials with precision and confidence.
Design Features
- Magnetic Lifting Technology
The round magnet is the centerpiece of this crane's design. It is engineered to generate a strong magnetic field capable of securely gripping steel coils in a vertical position. This eliminates the need for additional clamps or slings, reducing setup time and improving operational efficiency.
- Vertical Handling Capability
Unlike traditional cranes that are limited to horizontal lifting, this system is specifically designed for vertical handling of steel coils. This capability is particularly valuable in applications where vertical storage or transport is required.
With a lifting capacity of 10 tons, this
Double Girder Crane is ideal for handling large steel coils commonly used in industrial applications. Its robust construction ensures consistent performance even under heavy loads.
Safety is a top priority in industrial environments. The crane is equipped with advanced safety mechanisms, including overload protection, emergency stop functions, and anti-sway technology. These features minimize the risk of accidents and ensure safe operation at all times.
Built with high-quality materials and components, the magnet crane is designed to withstand harsh industrial conditions. Its corrosion-resistant finish and low-maintenance design contribute to its long service life.
Electromagnetic Crane for the Steel Industry
The steel industry presents unique challenges when it comes to material handling. Steel coils, in particular, require specialized equipment due to their weight, size, and shape. The overhead crane with
magnets offered by DQCRANES address these challenges effectively, making it an indispensable tool for steel manufacturers and distributors.
- Storage and Warehousing: The crane’s ability to lift steel coils horizontally and vertically makes it ideal for stacking and storing materials efficiently in warehouses with limited floor space.
- Production Lines: In manufacturing facilities, the crane can transport steel coils between different stages of production, streamlining workflows and reducing downtime.
- Loading and Unloading: Whether loading coils onto transport vehicles or unloading them from delivery trucks, the magnetic overhead crane simplifies these tasks while ensuring precision and safety.
Client's Feedback on DQCRANES' Design Solution
The client expressed their satisfaction with the proposed solution, highlighting the following aspects:
- The tailored design met all their operational requirements and exceeded expectations in terms of efficiency and safety.
- The magnetic lifting system offered a significant improvement over their previous handling methods, streamlining their workflow and reducing labor costs.
- DQCRANES’ professionalism and attention to detail throughout the consultation process were highly appreciated.
Production and Installation
Following the approval of our design proposal, the client signed the contract and completed 50% of the payment in advance as per standard terms.
The production process was carried out at DQCRANES’ state-of-the-art manufacturing facility, adhering to strict quality control measures at every stage. Once completed, the 10 ton electromagnet crane underwent rigorous testing to ensure it met all performance and safety standards. The final product was carefully packaged and shipped to Indonesia.
The installation of the
bridge crane will be undertaken by the local installation team in Indonesia. DQCRANES will provide a 24-hour free online installation guidance service to ensure a smooth process. Our team also offers operator training to ensure a smooth transition into the client’s operations.
