ALUMINUM & CARBON / LIFTING SOLUTIONS
Aluminum Smelter Process Crane System Solution
An aluminum smelter needs different handling actions at the carbon warehouse, feeding station and electrolytic cell; one hook crane cannot perform all three.

THE LIFTING SOLUTION
Connect carbon-block storage, material feeding and anode replacement.
An aluminum smelter needs different handling actions at the carbon warehouse, feeding station and electrolytic cell; one hook crane cannot perform all three.
Plan dedicated equipment by process station. Adjustable clamps lift anode blocks, a suction and distribution crane serves material feeding, and a multi-function unit handles crust breaking, anode exchange and residue tasks.
HANDLING SEQUENCE
How the solution works.
Follow the load through the operation to see where lifting equipment, tooling and controls must work together.
Feed the process
Combine material pickup, suction and distribution where the process requires them.
Service the cell
Coordinate anode change and residue removal at each electrolytic position.
ENGINEERING DECISIONS
What determines the final configuration?
These choices affect safety, process fit and the operating life of the installation.
Tooling flexibility
Set clamp opening and block count from actual anode sizes.
Hot-zone automation
Define cell access, sensing and personnel exclusion before specifying automatic operation.

PROJECT 01
Baotou aluminum project
The project used a customized package for a Baotou aluminum producer including a multifunctional suction crane, anode-block stacking crane and electrolytic-aluminum process unit.
RELEVANT EQUIPMENT
Equipment options for this solution.
These product families support the handling tasks above. The final crane and attachment are selected from the site brief.
SPECIFICATION BRIEF
What we need to size your crane.
Send the operating brief and the relevant layout drawings. The resulting proposal can address capacity, geometry, duty, controls, installation interface and safety requirements as one system.
