OUR SOLUTIONS

The scrap yard located upstream of all the equipment of a steelworks or foundry is the entry point for scrap to be recycled from various collection points. This area reserved for their storage, sorting and loading is highly strategic because it is at the base of the steel production line. Issues of quality and processing time come into play. All downstream production depends on it. It is in this context that CLESID Lorber brings its know-how and skills as a designer and supplier of various equipment such as :

Overhead crane beam
Intermediate beam
Scrap loading basket (with standard or automatic opening)
Transfer car

Scrap loading basket

Like overhead beam, CLESID Lorber can offer tailor-made solutions for scrap loading baskets based on the operator’s production requirements. Optimizations of calculations by finite elements make it possible to achieve a gain in transferred payload and clever technical solutions make it possible to overcome certain handling constraints.

EQUIPMENT :
6t Hydraulic opening round scrap loading basket

STUDY CONTEXT :
Need to maneuver the opening of the basket in the absence of an auxiliary hook on the overhead crane.

SOLUTION REALIZED :
Embedded and autonomous hydraulic group with opening controlled by radio control.

Overhead beam

With the aim of improving the productivity and safety tandem, CLESID Lorber also offers solutions for replacing or improving existing equipment, solutions to reduce their empty weight thanks to an optimization of finite element calculations. By conducting our studies in compliance with the standards in force, the safety aspect is reinforced.

EQUIPMENT :
Bridge lifting beam for transporting scrap loading basket – WLL 170t

STUDY CONTEXT :
Design as part of a change of scrap loading basket of different dimensions from the existing one following the addition of scrap preheating equipment.

SOLUTION REALIZED :
Embedded and autonomous hydraulic group with opening controlled by radio control.

Transfer car

Depending on the configuration of the steelwork’s halls, it is very often necessary to install transfer cars to drive the loading baskets from the scrap yard to the furnace hall.

We offer all types of transfer car for baskets according to customer specifications by integrating all the safety devices allowing it to evolve in a constrained environment while preserving the safety of its operators.

EQUIPMENT :
Transfer cart for scrap loading basket – Transportable mass approx. 80t

STUDY CONTEXT :
Replacement of the existing transfer car for use of a new loading basket for scrap transfer between the loading area and the furnace hall

SOLUTION REALIZED :
Transfer car on motorized rail/roller with safety devices
