Weihua’s multi-purpose crane for electrolytic aluminum is a specialized lifting equipment designed for the unique working conditions of non-ferrous metal smelting workshops, such as those for electrolytic aluminum. Its core tasks are to safely and efficiently perform the installation and maintenance of aluminum reduction cells, as well as the precise handling of materials. The design of this type of crane strictly considers the high temperatures, high levels of metallic dust, and the presence of direct current in the electrolytic cell environment to ensure the safety of both equipment and personnel.
The multi-purpose crane for electrolytic aluminum is composed of a crane travel mechanism, bridge, tool trolley, aluminum tapping trolley, hydraulic and pneumatic system, and electrical control system. Its core is the tool trolley, which consists of a trolley travel mechanism, trolley frame, tool slewing mechanism, crust breaker mechanism, anode changing mechanism, slag raking mechanism, material feeding mechanism, and operator’s cab slewing mechanism. The entire crane uses frequency conversion plus PLC control. Operation is via an operator’s cab or a remote controller; the two operation modes can work together or be controlled independently. This equipment series is widely used in the electrolytic aluminum industry and is highly appreciated by users.
The multi-purpose crane for electrolytic aluminum primarily serves the following fields:
| Application Field | Specific Application Scenarios |
|---|---|
| Non-Ferrous Metal Electrolytic Smelting | Core application in electrolytic aluminum workshops; also suitable for the smelting production processes of metals such as electrolytic magnesium, lead, and zinc. |
| Electrolytic Aluminum Industry Chain | Covers the entire process from cell installation (e.g., Weihua’s project exporting超大容量 cells to Indonesia), daily aluminum tapping, anode changing, to the handling and storage of finished aluminum ingots/coils. |
| High-End Manufacturing & Major Projects | Its high precision and intelligent features also enable it to meet the精密 lifting needs of high-tech fields such as aerospace and new energy (e.g., material handling in new energy vehicle factories). |
| Overseas Large-Scale Projects | Successfully exported to countries like Indonesia and other “Belt and Road” nations, supporting major local electrolytic aluminum industry upgrade projects, demonstrating international competitiveness. |
