The roasting multifunctional crane, also called anode baking crane, is a heavy-duty overhead crane specifically designed for roasting processes in the metallurgy, chemical, and non-ferrous metal industries. It is primarily used for multi-position operations such as feeding, discharging, transferring, and maintaining materials in high-temperature furnaces and kilns. The equipment is typically equipped with multiple specialized lifting devices, such as grab buckets, electromagnetic suction cups, or clamps, featuring precise positioning, automated control, and high-temperature operation capabilities, making it suitable for complex and high-intensity operational environments. The multifunctional crane is widely applied in production lines such as aluminum electrolysis, nickel electrolysis, alumina calcination, and lithium battery material production, serving as a critical piece of equipment for achieving efficient material handling and automated roasting processes.
Metallurgical roasting process: Specifically designed for loading and unloading in high-temperature kilns such as rotary kilns and fluidized bed roasting furnaces, it handles the loading and unloading of raw materials like ore and concentrate, as well as the transportation of hot semi-finished products.
Sintering/pellet production line: In processes such as chain grate-rotary kiln pelletizing and belt sintering machines, it handles the tasks of grabbing, stacking, and loading hot sintered ore/pellets.
High-temperature material storage: Used for managing stockpiles of hot materials after roasting, enabling intelligent stacking and retrieval of high-temperature sintered ore, alumina, and other materials below 800°C.
Special Metallurgical Scenarios: Adapted for the calcination of special materials such as zinc leaching residue and nickel-iron laterite ore, with corrosion-resistant design to handle complex chemical compositions.
Environmental Protection Treatment Processes: In hazardous waste calcination disposal lines, it performs high-risk operations such as the transfer of hazardous waste residue using a grab and feeding it into a waste heat boiler.
High-temperature resistant structural design: Critical components are equipped with water-cooled motors, insulation devices, and heat-resistant materials to withstand high-temperature calcination environments below 800°C, ensuring long-term stable operation of the equipment.
High-precision intelligent control: Integrated PLC system and variable frequency speed control technology support automatic gripping, precise positioning, weighing identification, and fault self-diagnosis, enhancing production automation levels.
Multi-functional lifting device compatibility: Features a modular lifting device interface, enabling quick switching between electromagnetic suction cups, grabs, clamps, etc., to efficiently handle various types of materials.
Stable and safe operation: Equipped with temperature monitoring and alarm systems, limit switches, and redundant control designs to ensure safe operation under harsh conditions.
Compact structure and easy maintenance: The overall structure is optimized to reduce space requirements, with centralized maintenance points for convenient daily inspections and maintenance, thereby lowering operational costs.
High adaptability: Specifically designed for metallurgical carbon and other calcination processes, it meets the demands of high-frequency, multi-station, and multi-process operations, and is suitable for various industrial calcination environments.
