Paper mill crane for material handling & maintenance work in paper plant. Custom industrial overhead crane & bridge crane to improve paper mill benefits.

Overhead Cranes for the Pulp and Paper Industry

In contemporary paper mills, Yuantai's overhead cranes offer greater handling precision for both large and small loads.

Yuantai cranes continue to pay for themselves thanks to their exceptional durability and extremely low maintenance requirements.

For each step in the production of paper, Yuantai designs proper bridge cranes to meet your special setup and material handling needs. Yuantai will work with you to develop a crane that meets your application and maximizes your uptime, from automated reel and roll handling to wet end and dry end use.

Uses of Overhead Cranes for Paper Mills

Yuantai Crane provides electric overhead cranes and material handling systems for all lifting applications in the pulp and paper industry including:

parent roll handling by overhead bridge crane systems
Maintenance processes with overhead crane or jib crane
converting
support processes
storage and shipping with bridge crane system

energy production
wood handling with custom travelling crane with wood log tong
fiber lines
recycling
load handling devices

Various types of overhead travelling cranes are used as an integral part of the manufacturing and maintenance processes in the pulp and paper industry. They are made up of predetermined assemblies.

Overhead crane for material handling in paper production

We can offer solutions for all applications in the papermaking process thanks to our extensive selection of overhead bridge crane and electric hoist products:

Transport the entire paper roll safely, and then dependably hand the empty roll back to the paper machine's staff.
Maintenance tasks like changing the felt covers and filter cloths in the paper machine's wet end.
Replace the rollers and other parts of the paper machine.
Prepare and transport inventory-ready equipment parts.
Service and upkeep tasks in each of the paper mill's production areas.

Bridge crane for paper storage

Paper making machine output must be conveyed effectively, which calls for reliable and adaptable overhead material handling. We have a lot of roll storage system solutions with Yuantai cranes around the world. While the driving is getting ready for the next job, our electric eot crane lifts the paper rolls and carefully stacks them vertically one by one on the paper roll stack in the fully automatic paper roll storage. The Yuantai warehouse management system, which is in direct contact with the customer host, the machinery for transporting paper rolls, and the operation terminals of various departments of the paper mill, controls the paper mill crane. To accommodate the storage needs of the intermediate warehouse and the shipping warehouse, a specific storage strategy is set up in the system.

Crane for Service

The material handling crane and hoist equipment needs to be as reliable as possible because the lifting crane system and the process are so closely integrated. We make sure that services are delivered through a vast maintenance technology network (a highly skilled special crane application service team) that is dispersed across the nation in addition to using high-quality components. We have a 24-hour standby policy and routine inspections as part of our customer service philosophy.

Custom Bridge Cranes for Paper Industry

Industrial overhead crane systems are essential to the pulp and paper industry's ability to produce paper processing lines safely and effectively. Industrial material handling cranes must be operated at a relatively high speed with high reliability, accuracy, and safety due to the demanding application of hot temperatures, high humidity, and high speed operation. Yuantai Crane Cranes are available to meet your unique application needs and requirements in paper mills as the one-stop provider of paper industrial crane services.

The parent roll handling cranes are used at the dry end of the paper-making machine to handle full reels safely and return empty reels in an efficient manner.
Overhead paper mill cranes are used for maintenance tasks like replacing screens and felts at the wet end of the paper-making machine.
The transportation and replacement of rollers and other parts of the paper machine, as well as all service and maintenance work in every area of a paper manufacturing mill and plants, necessitate the use of paper roll handling cranes.
A paper mill needs reliable, adaptable overhead travelling cranes to produce products efficiently. For paper roll stores, full automatic or semi-automatic overhead cranes that can gently pick up the parent rolls and stack them vertically in the storage section are typically used.

Modern paper mills typically use 2 (or 1) double girder bridge cranes for papermaking instead of 3 electric bridge cranes. The number of overhead cranes can be decreased in this manner, and as a result of the decreased crane wheel pressure and height, the track beam section, column section, track size, and plant construction height can also be decreased, saving a total investment of about 35% and reducing energy consumption.

Each papermaking workshop is furnished with two identical bridge cranes, one of which is used for managing dry paper rolls and the other for handling wet paper rolls. The overhead crane frame has three trolleys, two of which are outside and are used for lifting paper rolls, empty paper rolls, and other purposes. The middle trolley is used for replacing rollers and cylinders as well as performing other maintenance on paper machines. It may also serve as an outside trolley's backup trolley. In order to achieve this, the three trolleys' lifting speed is equal to their running speed.

The 2 outer trolleys' service level is at least ISO M6 (FEM 3m). The middle trolley is primarily used for maintenance work, and while it may have a lower work level, like ISOM4 (FEM 1Am), it can lift more weight—typically twice as much as the outside trolley—than the latter two combined. as in 10t/M6 + 20t/M4 + 10t/M6, for instance.

The adaptability and reliability of this bridge crane construction are its greatest advantages. Service cranes or reserve service cranes can both be made of paper. A paper workshop with two of these electric cranes will have very high reliability with no failure. The benefit of having just one overhead bridge crane is that it requires the least amount of capital investment and can meet production demands on a daily basis. The drawback is that if the trolley breaks down, production will be negatively impacted, so users should increase crane maintenance on a daily basis.

Special designed overhead crane attachment for paper industrial cranes

The overhead crane attachment is made with the fastest speed, the most precise sling device, the most complete safety device, and the most practical control system for producing paper. Yuantai Crane has a variety of lifting accessories to manage paper rolls for effective paper handling.
