10 Ton Overhead Crane For Paper Mill

Project Overview

A large paper mill in Shandong, China, decided to upgrade the equipment in its production plant in order to improve productivity and safety. The mill mainly produces various types of paper and cardboard, which require frequent handling of raw materials as well as heavy equipment components during the production process. Due to the low efficiency of the old handling equipment, the mill decided to introduce a 10-ton overhead crane to improve the automation and safety of material handling.

Project Challenges

Space Constraints: The height of the paper mill workshop is limited, and overhead crane installation needs to be adapted to the site layout.

Dust And Moisture Requirements: The High humidity and dusty environment in paper mills, cranes need to have anti-corrosion and dustproof functions.

Precise Handling Requirements: The handling process needs to be smooth without shaking, to avoid damaging the product quality.

Efficient Operation Requirements: The fast pace of the production line, cranes to meet the high frequency of use while reducing the failure rate to ensure continuous production.

VOITTO Solution

To meet the stringent requirements of this project, Voitto has specially custom-designed a 10-ton  overhead crane with the following main functional features:

Structural Optimization: A low clearance design is adopted to maximize the use of workshop height and ensure the efficient operation of the overhead crane in a limited space.

Anti-corrosion Treatment: Galvanized steel plates and anti-corrosion coatings are used for the main beam and lifting mechanism, and the motor and electrical components are IP55 protection grade, which is suitable for humid and dusty environments.

Precise Control: Equipped with a variable frequency speed regulation system to achieve stepless speed change for lifting and walking, ensuring smooth lifting of paper rolls, anti-sway function is added to avoid shaking of goods.

Intelligent Operation And Maintenance: Integrated remote monitoring system, real-time monitoring of the overhead crane operation status, early warning of potential faults, and reduced downtime.

Outcome

The customer was highly satisfied with the application of the 10-ton overhead crane. The production efficiency was significantly improved, the paper roll handling time was shortened by about 40%, and the waiting time of the production line was reduced.
