Steelworks and foundries

We have the right crane solutions for a variety of applications in foundries: casting cranes with up to four crane girders for the safe and efficient handling of ladles. Double-girder overhead travelling cranes in-house transport of the components required for casting (e.g. mould boxes) and for handling the castings to be processed.

These applications include the in-house transport of slabs and ingots as well as the handling of mill rolls for storage and maintenance. And with our travel units, we provide complete drive solutions for rail-mounted transport applications.
