Lifting equipment manufacturer,
Demag Cranes & Components, has
installed two crane systems at
Rainham Steel's Scunthorpe
distribution centre, as part of the
development of a new £1.3 million
warehouse facility.
To meet Rainham Steel's requirements, Demag installed two double girder travelling cranes, with spans of 30.8 m and 31.5 m, both rated at 7 tonnes + 7 tonnes SWL.
Both cranes are equipped with two Demag DR-PRO wire rope hoists, upon which magnets are mounted.
The use of magnets for the lifting process improves safety by excluding operators from the lifting area.
Operation of the cranes, hoists and magnets is via a user friendly HBC radio control, which allows the operator to stand clear of the process area.
