KBK Workstation Crane Enhancement.

Demag KBK Crane Construction KitWe'll be introducing an addition to our popular KBK workstation crane construction kits that increases load capacity and spanning capability. The new track profile will work for both suspension cranes and monorails.
The addition to the traditional system is KBK II-H’s steel profile section that will fit between the KBK II and KBK III size sections, while remaining compatible with existing systems. The KBK II-H profile makes it possible to increase distances between suspensions on crane runways for spans of up to 28 feet and loads more than 1200 lb. The section also features a rigid rail joint capable of being subjected to a full load at any track position. The track will continue to provide reliable overhead material handling, smooth running for trolleys, and pendulating suspension that absorbs horizontal movement.
It will feature compatible KBK parts such as travelling, extending and overhead cranes. Demag’s modular crane construction kit is designed for adaptability. The structure is lightweight and the bridges are flexible. Demag says it is relatively easy to assemble. 



TKF Continuous Vertical LiftOur DCS-Pro electric chain hoist line is packed with standard features that allow operators to handle and precisely position critically sensitive loads with ease.  These include an infinitely-variable speed control with soft starting speeds as low as 3.15 inches/minute; a 1:200 control ratio that produces gentle positioning in addition to high speed travel; automatic switchover to low speed prior to reaching the upper/lower stop; acceleration and braking ramps to prevent load sway; and up to 90% higher nominal speed for partial load or no-load operations.

Designed with safety, convenience and low maintenance in mind, the entire family of DCS-Pro chain hoists includes as standard 24V control voltage and operating limit switches for improved safety and reliability, a brake-coupling system which ensures that loads are held securely in all operating situations, and a speed monitored slipping clutch for effective cut-off on overload allow safe operation.  The DCS also comes standard with "plug & lift" connections that make the hoist simple to install, while the gearbox, brake and slipping clutch are maintenance-free for up to 10 years, while the modular chain drive can be quickly and easily replaced without having to remove the motor or gear parts. 


Demag DC-Com Electric Chain HoistOur DC-Com electric chain hoists are feature packed work horses suitable for a wide range of applications.  Standard on the DC-Com is a two speed motor for accurate positioning, plug and play electrical connections to simplify installation and commissioning, and an adjustable height control pendant that improves safety and ergonomics.  Also included is an overload protection system with slip clutch and limit switches, quick disconnect connections, and an easy-to-access control panel for simple and efficient maintenance. 
Demag Cranes & Components is the first manufacturer to receive the Hoist Manufacturer Institute’s (HMI) Certification for its DC line of electric chain hoists.  HMI is a trade association affiliated with the Material Handling Industry of America (MHIA).
The DC-Com is available in 5 different capacities ranging from 275 lbs (125 kg) up to 4400 lbs (2000 kg).  All models easily connect to a variety of Demag’s popular trollies and electric trolley drives, and are easily integrated with the Demag KBK crane construction rail system.
Ergonomic features include a control cable with ten feet of adjustment for optimum pendant positioning, a single fall                    chain design and upper and lower limit switch.  



Demag DC-Pro Electric Chain HoistOur line of DC-Pro electric chain hoists includes many standard safety and performance features that allow users to achieve superior levels of performance, safety and productivity through reduced downtime, increased duty cycles, easy maintenance and improved ergonomics.  This hoist is certified by HMI ( Hoist Manufacturers Institute ) to meet the ANSI B30.16 and ASME HST 1 -1999 design and safety standards for electric chain hoists.
Unique to the DC-Pro is an extended service life; a 20% improvement in comparison to conventional HMI 4 or 2m FEM classified chain hoists. This results in increased time between service intervals and general overhauls.  Many components are maintenance free for up to 10 years.  These features allow the hoist to be more productive and result in lower operating costs. 
Safety features include brakes that do not require adjustment and clutches that provide protection against overload and slippage.  The brake-coupling system ensures that the load is held securely in position and cannot drop.  The slip clutch monitor automatically shuts the hoist down if the slip clutch torque is exceeded, preventing the slip clutch from wearing out due to operator error.
The DC-Pro Chain Hoist is available in 275 - 11,000 lb. capacities with two different control configurations: standard with a pendant control or as the DCM-Pro with Demag’s Manulift control pendant for safe and easy handling of loads with only one hand.





Pre-Engineered Overhead Bridge Crane, Crane Kits

Demag Pre-Engineered Crane KitsOur pre-engineered bridge crane single girder crane kits are available in either top running or under running configurations that allow installers to do their own on-site bridge crane assembly.  The kits are shipped complete with all necessary components except the steel beams, which can be purchased locally to save freight cost.

The bridge crane kit comes complete with all components including a wire rope hoist, end trucks, bridge panel, festoon system with brackets and push button station.  All bridge crane, crane kits are “plug and play” and no electrical work is required.  The kits can typically be assembled in less than 21 hours, an extremely fast rate for the crane industry.

Bridge crane, crane kits are designed for builders of beam girder bridge cranes in the 3, 5 and 10 ton capacity range.  Demag provides all specifications and instructions.  Onsite construction and maintenance services are also available. 




CoilMaster bridge crane for Handling Steel Coils


Storage, handling operations and order-picking are processes that have to be performed continuously and reliably when handling steel coil.  In addition to the bridge crane crane itself, special magnets, stacker-cradle spreaders and tilt-type magnets provide for safe and reliable handling of coils, long bar material and sheet metal.  We offer unparalleled experience and knowledge when it comes to coil handling bridge crane solutions, with installations around the globe.  Stop in to discuss your operation, and let us put our problem solving capabilities to work for you!  
 


Overhead Bridge Crane Solutions

The booth will include two video monitors illustrating solutions for overhead bridge cranes in the steel coil handling, waste-to-energy, aircraft, concrete pipe and wind turbine manufacturing industries. In addition, an overall capabilities video will demonstrate Demag’s global capabilities in ports, intermodal and manufacturing markets.
