Four Girder Ladle Crane – Key Benefits & Features

1. Heavy-Duty & Reliable Design

  • Four-Girder & Four-Rail Structure: Provides maximum load capacity and stability for molten metal handling.

  • Dual Crab System (Main + Auxiliary): Main crab lifts ladles; auxiliary crab assists in pouring.

  • Four-Corner Drive: Ensures smooth trolley movement and reduces wheel slippage.


2. Heat & Stress Resistance

  • Thermal Baffle & Insulation: Shields the girder from extreme heat.

  • Rock Wool Insulation & Air Cooling: Keeps electrical panels cool for longer lifespan.

  • Two-Stage Welding: First welding sets dimensions; second welding relieves stress for durability.


3. Precision & Safety for Molten Metal

  • Electronic Scale & Real-Time Monitoring: Displays weight in cabin and bridge for accuracy.

  • Dual-Wire Rope Safety: Backup ropes prevent accidents if one fails.

  • Multiple Brakes: 4 main lift brakes + 2 per lifting point + overspeed protection.

  • Anti-Collision & Limit Switches: Wireless sensors and dual travel limits for safety.


4. Customizable for Harsh Environments

  • Adjustable Speeds: Lifting and travel speeds can be modified as needed.

  • Wide Temperature Range: Operates from -10°C to +60°C (ideal for steel plants).

  • Power Options: Standard 380V, 50Hz or custom voltage/frequency.


5. Advanced Safety & Electrical Protections

  • Overload Protection: Blocks lifting (only allows lowering if overloaded).

  • Anti-Falling Mechanism: Locks motor to prevent drops.

  • Safety Hook Latch: Prevents load slippage.

  • Other Protections:

    • Overcurrent, short-circuit, and phase-sequence safety.

    • IP54/IP55 dust/water resistance.

    • Emergency stop and zero-position protection.


6. Built for Extreme Industrial Use

  • High Capacity (125/32T+): Handles ultra-heavy ladles with stability.

  • A7 Work Class: Designed for continuous foundry operations.

  • Precise Pouring Control: Dual-crab system ensures accurate steel pouring.


Why Choose This Crane?

✔ Stability: Four girders + dual lifting points minimize sway.
✔ Safety: Redundant brakes, ropes, and anti-fall systems.
✔ Heat Resistance: Engineered for long-term high-heat exposure.
✔ Smart Monitoring: Real-time weight tracking.
✔ Customizable: Adapts to tough conditions.


APPLICATION SCENARIO

Real-World Examples

320T Four-Girder Foundry Crane

  • Strong Frame: Four girders and four rails spread weight evenly.

  • 20-Wheel Design: Makes wheel pressure equal, saving building costs.

  • Backup Controls: If one lift system fails, another takes over safely.

  • Durable Wheels: Forged 45° split wheels last longer and resist dust.


360T Double-Girder Crane

  • Compact Design: Two girders with hinged end beams save space.

  • Tough Parts: Hard-gear reducers, rolled pulleys, and forged shafts.

  • Smart Engineering: Equal-strength parts last longer and are easy to fix.


240/75T Four-Girder Crane

  • Big Reach: 19m span, 24m lift height.

  • Smooth Lifting: Twin slow-speed reducers for steady, safe operation.



Where Four Girder Ladle Cranes Are Used

Four Girder Ladle Cranes are built for tough jobs. They handle hot, heavy, and dangerous materials in factories. Here are the main places they work:

1. Steel Mills & Metal Plants

  • Moving Molten Metal: Carries ladles of hot steel between furnaces and casting areas.

  • Continuous Casting Lines: Pours steel into machines that make slabs, blooms, or billets.

  • Furnace Work: Helps charge electric arc furnaces (EAF) and remove slag.


2. Foundries & Casting Shops

  • Pouring Metal: The small crab pours melted metal into molds.

  • Ladle Repair: Holds ladles still for lining fixes.

  • Loading Scrap: Dumps scrap metal into furnaces to melt.


3. Smelting & Refining Plants

  • Non-Ferrous Metals: Moves hot copper, aluminum, and other metals.

  • Slag Removal: Takes away waste slag from furnaces.


4. Heavy Industry

  • Forging: Positions hot metal blocks for pressing.

  • Heat Treatment: Moves hot parts in and out of ovens or cooling tanks.


5. Special High-Heat Jobs

  • Nuclear/Power Plants: Handles radioactive or precision parts.

  • Aerospace: Works with titanium and aluminum for aircraft parts.
