A P4.1 series roller energy chain is in operation at the Port of Rotterdam, one of the largest bulk handling ports in Western Europe. On the ship-to-shore crane, it operates continuously over 100 metre travel and without incident. So far it has completed more than 9,000 operating hours.
For travels of more than 400 metres in some cases, 12 ship-to-shore cranes in Antwerp were equipped with robust heavy duty energy chains.
Plastic energy chain systems for supplying energy to process cranes have proven themselves for several years in this hot-dip galvanising plant under high acid loads.
Containers containing liquid metal are transported in a foundry using these three cranes. The hot environment and high levels of contamination placed severe demands on the cable guidance.
In this indoor crane application, our e-chains show their advantages: even under the heavy load of dust and hot metal swarf, there has been no failure in three years.
In this coil crane, the motor-driven cable drums required a high level of maintenance. That is why they were replaced by our e-spool system.
This crane transports billets in a steel mill using a magnetic beam. For the power supply of the slewing gear, the developers are using a triflex series e-chain instead of the previous conductor rail.
For this 900t shipyard crane, the operator previously relied on a cable tender system to route the cables to the trolleys. Since the tension on the cables led to high maintenance requirements over time, the decision was made to replace them with an energy chain system. Since then, two heavy duty roller energy chains of the 5050RHD series have been in use.
For a single-girder goliath crane, two trolleys were equipped with our roller e-chains and chainflex cables. One of the energy chains moves a cable weight of 61kg/m.
Specifically designed for large-sized projects, the two heavy-duty roller energy chains reliably supply two trolleys with energy - over a travel distance of 122m.
16 crane trolleys travel on this gigantic Goliath crane with a load capacity of 15,000 tons. Our roller energy chains ensure safe cable guidance.
Three shipyard cranes are currently in use at the southern port of Shanghai's Pudong area. The energy and data supply to the gigantic lifting elements is implemented via our plastic energy chain systems.
Bulk handling cranes place extreme demands on cable solutions in many respects: while the travels for the transport of bulk goods often reach several 100 metres in length, all components must withstand outdoor weather conditions throughout the year. But also the high level of dirt and dust during transport of, for e.g., ores, sand or gravel require energy chains with high robustness, corrosion resistance, maintenance-free and long service life.
In the course of the conversion measures at the Baltic Sea port of Wismar, a ship loader that was previously used exclusively for loading potash was converted for handling different bulk goods.
At a taconite mine in the USA, a low-maintenance plastic energy chain was installed on a conveyor system for the rock with 550 metres of travel.
The railway technology supplier "Corus Rail" has replaced the existing festooning on indoor and outdoor cranes in its steel plant with our energy chains.
