PRODUCTS & CASES

YZ Type Foundry Casting Crane is a heavy-duty metallurgical lifting solution specially designed for steelmaking plants, foundries, and high-temperature metal processing workshops. It is mainly used for lifting, transporting, pouring, and mixing molten iron, molten steel, and other high-temperature liquid metals.

Designed for extreme industrial environments, this series of casting cranes is available in various heavy-duty configurations, including:

• 160/32 tons

• 180/50 tons

• 200/50 tons

• 225/65 tons

• 240/80 tons

• 320/180 tons

With a working class of A7 (heavy-duty operation), the crane is capable of continuous operation under severe conditions involving high temperature, heavy dust, impact loads, and corrosive environments.

YZ foundry cranes are optimized for critical metallurgical processes where safety, reliability, and precise handling of molten metal are essential. They serve as key lifting equipment in steel mills, casting workshops, and large-scale metal production facilities.

YZ Foundry Casting Crane is widely applied in metallurgical production processes requiring high-capacity and high-temperature lifting operations.

Steelmaking Workshops

Used for lifting and transferring molten steel ladles, charging materials, and production equipment during steelmaking operations.

Foundries and Casting Plants

Applied for molten metal transportation, pouring operations, casting production, and material transfer between different working areas.

Metallurgical Production Lines

Supports heavy-duty lifting tasks including:

• Ladle handling

• Molten metal transfer

• Furnace charging and maintenance

• Casting equipment servicing

High-Temperature Industrial Environments

Designed for continuous operation in areas with:

• Extreme heat

• Heavy dust

• Strong impact loads

• Corrosive industrial gases

Heavy-Duty Load Capacity

YZ casting cranes feature reinforced structural designs with excellent load-bearing capacity and impact resistance.

The crane can handle ultra-heavy lifting operations with capacities ranging from medium to several hundred tons, meeting the requirements of large steel plants and foundries.

Comprehensive Safety Protection System

The crane integrates multiple safety mechanisms to ensure reliable operation during dangerous molten metal handling processes.

Safety features include:

• Overload protection system

• Dual emergency braking system

• Crane power switch protection

• Travel limit switches

• Safety monitoring devices

These systems effectively reduce operational risks and improve workplace safety.

High Temperature Electrical Protection

The electrical system adopts specially designed high-temperature resistant components, including:

• Heat-resistant cables

• Protective grounding system

• Insulated electrical protection devices

These measures help prevent electrical leakage, overheating, and short-circuit failures in harsh environments.

Operator Thermal Protection Design

The operator cabin is equipped with:

• Tempered glass insulation windows

• Heat-resistant protective coating

• Thermal protection structure

This provides operators with a safer and more comfortable working environment when operating near high-temperature molten metal.

Efficient and Reliable Power System

The main lifting mechanism is equipped with:

• High-performance lifting motors

• Thermal overload protection devices

• Medium-hardness gear reducers

The optimized drive system ensures smooth lifting, stable operation, and improved energy efficiency.

Durable Hoisting Mechanism

The crane adopts a reliable lifting system featuring:

• Rolling pulley blocks

• Steel core wire ropes

• Reinforced lifting components

This design provides excellent load capacity, smooth operation, and extended service life.

Shock Absorption and Impact Protection

Equipped with high-performance rubber buffers, the crane effectively absorbs impact forces during crane travel and operation.

This helps:

• Reduce mechanical stress

• Minimize component wear

• Improve equipment durability

Convenient Operation Design

The crane uses specially designed P-type hooks to improve lifting convenience and operational efficiency.

The optimized hook structure ensures:

• Stable load handling

• Easier ladle connection

• Improved working efficiency
