6.3 Ton EOT Crane with Clamshell Grab for Sale to UK

15 Jul, 2021
DQCRANES offered a fully automated EOT crane for handling the wood chip used to power a biomass boiler at new headquarters in UK. Based in the West London, the 23,000m2 development will be powered using a Combined Cooling Heating and Power (CCHP) plant.
 
We designed and manufactured 6.3t crane lifts biomass from the storage area to a silo store. This silo then feeds the furnace, as and when biomass is needed. Span is 7.8m and the crane uses a 4.5m3 capacity clam-shell grab.
 
To accomplish this without risk of damaging the storage facility walls, limiters on the crane’s cross speed and travel speed to accurate positioning and to minimize load sway. Along with anti-derailment protection for the crab trolley and a heavy-duty rope guide fitted to the electric wire rope hoist to counteract side pull.
 
All motors on the crane system we provided are housed in IP55-rated enclosures to protect against dust from the storage area, and the crane also features electronic overload protection, slack rope detection and radio remote control.
