Advanced Furnace Charging

Advanced Furnace Charging

Working with molten materials is intense and requires strict safety protocols. At American Crane & Equipment Co. (ACECO) we supply industries that manage molten materials with furnace charging equipment specially designed to handle high-risk loads, potential chemical corrosion, and high furnace temperatures.

Furnace Charging Equipment

Furnace charging equipment is responsible for transporting charge material to and from furnaces as safely and as efficiently as possible. There is a variety of equipment that can make up a furnace charging system and different industries and factories have differing needs. Examples include belt conveyors, vibrator conveyors, bucket charging systems and cranes.

Belt Conveyors

Belt conveyors move materials directly into a furnace and offer a smooth and continuous feed. They have heat-resistant belts, customized speed and capacity requirements, and enclosures that contain particulates. Belt conveyors also offer specific angle options, meaning these machines are very effective at moving materials from lower to higher levels.

Vibrator Conveyors

Vibrator conveyors are effective at transporting heavy, abrasive and irregularly shaped materials like foundry sand and minerals. They use a vibrating motion to move materials across a conveyor trough and are ideal for challenging environments because they can withstand intense heat and heavy loads. The speed and volume of materials entering the furnace via vibrator conveyors can be controlled by the operator and the vibrating motion breaks up large clumps of material. Vibrator conveyors often consume less energy and are generally easier to maintain, making them ideal equipment for a furnace charging system.

Bucket Charging Systems

Bucket charging systems often work with cranes or hoists to lift and tilt a bucket that contains a large load of material. This makes for efficient material transfer and can reduce emissions since the bucket deposits materials directly into the bucket. Buckets are ideal for dense or heavy materials such as slag which can be difficult to move via belt or vibrator conveyors. Bucket charging systems can also be customized to fit various furnace configurations and heights.

Electromagnetic Lifting Devices

Cranes equipped with electromagnetic lifting devices can be used to pick up and transfer charge materials. Cranes are essential for lifting and accurately placing materials into a furnace, particularly when charging systems involve high volumes or oversized materials. Cranes are also key because they have a greater degree of flexibility in movement, meaning they can move materials up, down, left, right, and rotationally, and in complex or restricted furnace layouts this is essential. Cranes also offer automated and remote-controlled operation which allows operators to manage charging from a safe distance.

Innovative Lifting Solutions for Ingot Handling

Innovative Lifting Solutions for Ingot Handling

In the industrial sector, ingots are commonly used to store and transport a mass of metal. These solid blocks of raw material — often in the shape of bars, plates, or sheets — are then worked into a semi-finished or finished product.

To create an ingot, the metal is heated past its melting point then cast using a mold chill method. These solid blocks of material can range in size from a few ounces to several tons, meaning transporting them creates unique lifting challenges.

Automated Warehouse Functioning: Stacker Cranes

For smaller ingots that are often stacked on pallets, with weights reaching hundreds or thousands of pounds, having the right equipment to lift and transport these pallets is essential for a streamlined operation.

In the lead industry, lead ingots have numerous benefits. They are easy to smelt and form, they are used in a variety of industries such as lead batteries, cable sheaths, and radiological shields, and they are durable. While lead ingots tend to be smaller in size, weighing about 1 pound, when loaded onto a pallet, the weight reaches around 1,000 pounds. Pallets then stacked together can make for a heavy load.

Stacker cranes are key in automated warehouse functioning. These machines are designed to store and retrieve pallets automatically, making organizing pallets an easier job. A stacker crane is an overhead crane system that utilizes a non-hoist load handling device and a main system comprised of guide rails, an electrical supply system, and a data transmission system. This mechanism allows the crane to travel, pick up items, and lift and lower them within the warehouse.

Here at American Crane & Equipment Co. (ACECO) we offer standard and custom variations of stacker cranes, with key features including 4,000-pound load capacity, user-friendly designs, and maximum stability at high positions with minimum sway at any elevation.

Essential Attachments: Crane Pallet Lifters

For transportation of heavy pallets, pallet lifters are essential. Pallet lifters, or pallet forks, are lifting devices which are hooked to a crane hoist. They are designed to lift and transport heavy loads, making delivery of large pallets secure and efficient.

At ACECO we offer a variety of below-the-hook lifting devices and our team makes sure that we get the right equipment for your needs.

Heavy Loads: Double Girder Overhead Crane

Steel ingots, which are used in the production of construction materials such as steel beams, pipes and plates, can often weigh several tons per ingot. A steel ingot generally requires a second shaping process and to move these heavy ingots around a steel mill, double girder overhead cranes are indispensable. With two parallel girders, these cranes provide increased lifting capacity and stability. These cranes are also built to withstand the harshest of industrial environments.

Work With Us

At ACECO we offer girder cranes with heavy-duty lifting capacity and can design and build custom cranes for specialized worksites.

Our team at ACECO examines your company’s needs and recommends or custom-designs equipment to keep your operations flowing smoothly and effectively. We manufacture lifting solutions of any size and shape to lift ingots of all sizes and configurations. Our cranes and hoists routinely exceed CMAA duty cycle requirements for service classifications A through F, every unit is backed with a comprehensive in-house quality assurance program, thoroughly testing each product prior to shipment.

Revolutionizing Wastewater Management

Revolutionizing Wastewater Management

When you think about water from municipal septic systems, rainwater runoff and manufacturing industries you think of water that you don’t want released back into the environment. But once treated at a wastewater treatment plant, which removes or reduces the contaminants, the remaining water can be safely returned to our natural environment.

Cranes play a critical role in wastewater treatment systems, where they lift extremely heavy loads, meaning this industry relies on specialty cranes. Wastewater treatment facilities utilize complex equipment and processes that require regular maintenance. Lifting solutions from American Crane & Equipment Corporation (ACECO) make these jobs easier and ensure that these facilities are always kept in the best possible operating conditions. There is a variety of crane types that can be useful in the wastewater treatment process, including bridge cranes, jib cranes and gantry cranes.

Bridge Cranes

Bridge cranes can handle heavy equipment and are used for a variety of functions in wastewater treatment plants, one of which is installing and removing big, bulky pieces of treatment equipment, such as pumps, valves and filtration equipment. Bridge cranes move in three primary axes, allowing them to cover large areas and handle these materials efficiently.

Jib Cranes

Jib cranes are valuable for moving smaller parts, such as in areas where pumps, valves, and other components need frequent maintenance. Jib cranes offer a compact size and flexibility that makes them ideal for handling tasks in tight spaces. Jib cranes are also useful in the treatment of wastewater as they are efficient at handling chemicals used in the process, such as for disinfecting the wastewater. Jib cranes help lift chemical containers safely, reducing the risk of spills and exposure. Because of their floor-mounted design and 180°–360° range of motion, jib cranes fit well in confined spaces, offering localized support wherever larger cranes are impractical.

Gantry Cranes

Gantry cranes have a special job in moving heavy loads, particularly in areas where heavy equipment needs to be lifted and transported but a permanent overhead crane is not feasible. Typically, gantry cranes are freestanding, moving along tracks or wheels to allow flexibility and mobility. When large components in wastewater treatment systems such as those from tanks and clarifiers need maintenance, the mobility of gantry cranes allows operators to position the crane over the specific area needing service, making maintenance tasks more manageable. Gantry cranes also provide the lifting capacity needed to handle heavy-duty pumps and motors which can be relocated to different stations as needed, offering flexibility in facility design. As well, the portability and adjustability of gantry cranes enables them for quick setup in various parts of a facility, making these cranes beneficial for spaces that require adaptability.

Custom Lift Stations

Here at ACECO we also supply several types of lift stations that can be customized to each treatment facility. Wastewater lift stations move waste from low to higher elevations using dry wells or submersible pumps, which saves on excavation costs and underground sewer pipelines.

Efficiency with ACECO

At ACECO we provide high-quality tools and solutions to tackle even the most complex material handling challenges. The equipment that you need for your wastewater treatment facility will be unique and we look forward to planning and manufacturing a system that will help your processes work efficiently.
