Features of 10 ton ladle cranes

Heat Insulation:

The bottom of the girder is given a heat-insulation treatment with an operating temperature range of -10°C to +60°C and relative humidity of 50% or less below 40°C.

For Safety:

  • It is completely prohibited to stand underneath the ladle crane during operation.
  • To seal and lock the steel wire rope at the wedge connection, two rope clamps are placed, and the remaining length of the steel wire rope head is 200mm;
  • The height of the hook from the ground must be less than 2 meters after utilizing the crane (including the hoist);
  • Before commissioning and startup, the user must pump oil into the reducer.
