Leading the global overhead crane industry with the largest service network and a complete range of lifting equipment. Way Up, the customer magazine of Konecranes, highlights new technologies, products, maintenance services, and the most relevant business topics. We understand how lifting technology is critical throughout the steel production process. Our long years of experience and continuous investments in R&D drive our innovation. This allows for faster load handling and more precise positioning. Load Floating maintains the position of a load after hoisting, creating smoother, faster restart movement and reducing brake wear. With a single button, an operator can lift a load to a predetermined height, move it to one of the programmed locations and place it. To be more eco-efficient, our cranes are available with the latest energy regenerating technology. This can save up to 30% of crane electricity consumption. Konecranes is dedicated to research and development to design cranes that help improve your safety, load handling, reliability and performance. Our compact hoists with reduced hook approaches create more usable workspace and minimal headroom requirements. Our CXT hoist uses an innovative rope reeving system that is designed to extend the lifetime of the ropes. Energy-saving Konecranes drives are designed especially for crane use. Our hot metal cranes are designed with increased working coefficients, a differential gear reducer, redundancy in all critical systems, a backup brake on the rope drum, and motion limiters. Automated crane operation is especially useful in steel end product storage and warehouse functions. Transporting and storing steel are vital but repetitive processes that can be performed most accurately, efficiently and quickly with semi-automatic or fully automatic crane operations.
