Overhead (EOT) Process Cranes
Whether you are electrifying hot metal or charging cranes, billet cranes, coil handling equipment, or scrap handling systems, Conductix-Wampfler has the solution. We offer Hevi-Bar II conductor bar, with or without Dura-Coat corrosion protection. We cover high-current needs with the 4000 amp or 6000 amp Welded Cap Conductor Rail. This rail integrates the hardness and corrosion resistance of a stainless steel running surface with an aluminum body for maximum current carrying capacity and is capable of ambient temperatures up to 5000 F. The rail carries US Patent No. 6,983,834 B1. The system uses a Pantograph Collector:
- Linkage articulates vertically within a 5.9” (150 mm) range. Horizontally rigid to accurately track the rail.
- Arms rotate on patented “fluid blocks”; sealed for life. Eliminates electrical pitting and joint wear. A reliable bolted clamp system holds the shoe in the holder; easy to replace.
- Rated for 600 amps.
Benefits of Welded Stainless Steel Cap Rail:
- Running surface is virtually wear-free; wears better than aluminum, copper, or steel surfaces. Cap welds are on the rail sides to reduce resistance and improve shoe life.
- Replacing a “soft” rail, like copper or steel requires grinding to match the new rail to the old. With the Welded Cap Conductor Rail this is unnecessary.
- Running surface is corrosion resistant to enhance conductivity.
- Locking stainless steel hardware is used throughout the system.
- Rail body is high-strength, corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy to maximize current carrying capacity; eliminates the need for copper “auxiliary wiring”.
Also for process cranes, we offer the heaviest festoon trolley designs in the industry. We also offer heat resistant sheathing to protect cables.
When it comes to process cranes, Conductix-Wampfler has the rugged, field-tested electrification equipment you need.
