Germany-based BANG Kransysteme has completed the installation of a process crane in the warehouse bay at Schwermetall Halbzeugwerk, bringing the new system into operation following a two-week period for installation and commissioning.
With a 35t lifting capacity, the crane operates in semi-automatic mode to enable precise coil handling and support an enhanced warehouse management system.
The installation took place under strict spatial limitations, requiring precise coordination.
BANG Kransysteme’s team used two mobile cranes and finalised the assembly within one day.
Schwermetall plans to add another crane of the same type later in the year, following an additional order placed for a third crane.
BANG Kransysteme said: “A huge thank you to our customer trust and the fantastic collaboration!
“With a second crane of that type being installed later in the year and the order of crane 3 received in this week, we are grateful for the support and trust that is put into the ongoing cooperation!”
