Cranes for Steel and Metallurgy
Ladle, grab, magnet and coil handling cranes for molten metal, scrap and coil
Molten metal, radiant heat, dust and continuous production. Cranes in a steel plant work in a duty group most workshop cranes never see.
What Makes This Sector Different
Molten metal, radiant heat, dust and continuous production. Cranes in a steel plant work in a duty group most workshop cranes never see.
The practical consequence is that the crane cannot be selected from a tonnage table alone. Duty group, environment rating, hook approach and the maintenance access all move once the process is taken into account. Sinomac Industrial works from the process cycle back to the crane, and issues a CAD drawing within 48 hours so the fit can be checked before commitment.
Typical Requirements
- FEM duty classification matched to real lifts per hour, not to the heaviest single lift
- Environment rating for temperature, dust, humidity or hazardous area classification
- Wheel load kept within what the existing runway or ground slab can carry
- Hook approach and headroom that let the crane serve the full working area
- Spare parts to DIN and FEM dimensions so a failure does not stop the line for weeks

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have experience with cranes in steel and metallurgy?
Yes. Sinomac Industrial supplies the Ladle-handling-overhead-crane, Grab-overhead-crane, Tilting-coil-tong into this sector, and specifies duty group from the process cycle rather than from peak tonnage.
What is the lead time on a project crane?
Lead time depends on capacity, span and how much of the structure is fabricated locally. Quotation is issued within 24 hours and includes an indicative schedule.
Are your cranes built to FEM and DIN standards?
Yes. Sinomac designs to FEM, DIN and ISO. Duty group is set from your real lifting cycle, so the classification on the nameplate matches how the crane is actually used.
Can you supply a crane kit instead of a complete crane?
Yes. Sinomac supplies hoist, end carriages, drives, control system and anti-sway as a kit, and provides free production drawings of the girder for regional partners and clients buying kits, which lowers shipping cost.
How fast do you quote?
Sinomac provides a crane quotation within 24 hours and a CAD drawing within 48 hours.
What documentation ships with the crane?
Equipment qualification certificate, main parts qualification certificates, electrical drawing diagram, installation operation and maintenance manual, and installation and commissioning instructions.
