Smooth operation redefined: The new KBK Aluline light crane system

 

■       Improved smooth-running characteristics

■       For handling loads up to 2,000 kg with low effort  

■       Considerable freedom in planning crane and handling systems

 

 With the aim of redefining ergonomics, Terex Material Handling has completely redesigned the Demag KBK Aluline light crane system. Further reduced rolling resistance enables operators to move loads weighing even up to 2,000 kg easily by hand with even less effort.

 

Marc Rieser, Head of Modular Cranes Business Line: “By specifically optimising the interplay between individual components, we have not only reduced the start-up resistance. The system also achieves very good travel resistance values. This improvement is really tangible for the user. He requires noticeably less force to move loads. We have redefined smooth running characteristics with our new KBK Aluline.” Noise levels are also reduced as a result of the low rolling resistance. This also brings relief for employees and additionally improves the working environment.

 

Six profile sections in four sizes

The new light crane system includes aluminium profile sections in four sizes that offer improved rigidity and a higher load capacity thanks to their hollow section design. In addition, all profile sections have lateral slots that are compatible with the ITEM system.

The two larger Aluline profile sections are available with optional integrated conductor lines. The spectrum of applications for the light crane system ranges from small workshops to complex, interlinked material flow solutions that are also utilised in semi-automated production. The system finds widespread use particularly in the international automotive industry.

 

Greater freedom of planning thanks to new rail connections

As an overhead handling system, KBK Aluline makes it possible to create almost any size of suspension crane or monorail system . The new modular system improves this versatility even further, as it requires fewer suspension points. These improvements require high-strength rail connections for crane runways. Compared to the previous system, the distance between the profile section connectors and the next suspension points has been significantly increased. Overall freedom in planning has reached a new level, since the rail joint now no longer has to be arranged close to the next suspension point.

The entire system can be installed in a minimum of time and requires virtually no maintenance. All aluminium profile sections can be combined with KBK steel profile sections within a single system – also at a later date. The “new” sections in the Demag light crane system are also compatible with existing KBK Aluline systems, which means that any profile sections that are already installed do not have to be replaced when installations are extended.

Users are supported by the KBK Designer online tool for planning material flow systems with KBK Aluline. Terex Material Handling, of course, also provides personal assistance for planning projects – all over the world.

 

Additional information

 

50 years of the KBK crane contruction kit

 

The system concept was already a prime goal when the Demag KBK crane construction kit was first developed some 50 years ago. Modular design, versatility, safety, reliability and convenient operation were incorporated to ensure the quality of overhead material flow systems and, at the same time, to reduce overall costs.

Since that time, these key features of the system have been consistently further developed and KBK quickly became established as a versatile complete solution for overhead material transport requirements.

The launch of the KBK Aluline crane construction kit marked an extension to the system that features a low deadweight and smooth running characteristics, thus making it particularly suited for push-travel hoist units. These characteristics have now been improved once more with the latest KBK Aluline system.

Demag cranes for Gas Turbine Technologies in St. Petersburg

-Process integration with state-of-the-art cranes 
-Integrated logistics concept from a single source
-Focus on efficiency, availability, safety and reliability

Siemens Gas Turbine Technology will employ Demag cranes at its new location near St. Petersburg for the manufacture and service of gas turbines above 60 MW. The company has awarded the contract to Terex Material Handling for the delivery and installation of seven process cranes and four universal cranes, some of which are equipped for tandem operation. On a property measuring 25,000 m² in size, production facilities are being developed in which Demag crane installations will support all steps of the production, shipping and maintenance of gas turbines. The crane installations have to be installed and put into service within a challenging window of opportunity. State-of-the-art gas turbines will be produced for the growing market of Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). It is planned to finish construction of the new plant and start gas turbine production in the Leningrad Region close to St. Petersburg, Russia’s second-largest city at the end of 2014.

Siemens is investing in its new production facility near St. Petersburg to expand its global manufacturing network for gas turbines and to be closer to customers. Dr Lars Brzoska, Vice President & Managing Director Terex Material Handling, explains: “The confidence placed in the Demag brand by our customer Siemens once more emphasises our leading position as a system supplier for the mechanical engineering sector all over the world. We are delighted that our products are able to play an important role at the operations level in the implementation of Siemens global business strategy in the energy sector.”

Lutz Dowy, Vice President Sales and Product Management: “Demag cranes and hoists have demonstrated their high quality and performance in Siemens plants for many years, such as in Görlitz, which is specialised in the production of industrial steam turbines. Our local presence in Russia and our manufacturing expertise give us the edge. Our customer Siemens benefits from reliable crane engineering, short delivery and installation times as well as support throughout the product lifecycle with rapid response times.”

System solution for industry-specific processes

The Demag crane installation will serve all parts of all assembly lines in the new local production facility. They will be responsible for handling heavy loads and ensure that the individual assembly stations are precisely served and that the components are positioned down to the last millimetre. Since they are equipped with two hoist units, the cranes will also be able to turn components safely, such as turbine housings. The crane installations will also ensure that the individual assembly stations are interlinked and will be used for staging completed gas turbines that are ready for shipping.

Designed to meet specific application requirements

The integrated logistics system consists of seven radio-controlled double-girder overhead travelling cranes and four wall-mounted travelling cranes, which are specially designed for the application and which travel on three crane levels. Five process cranes that have a span of 27 m and various load capacities operate on the top level. The largest crane, which is equipped with three hoist units that have load capacities of 250/150/16 t, is used for handling large components and to transport completed gas turbines. Two further crane installations operate on a second level and rapidly serve the workstations with material using their 25 t hoist units. Using an additional 5 t rope hoist, these cranes can also be used to support assembly work.

At the workstation level, three Demag EWKE wall-mounted travelling cranes that have an outreach of 10 m will be installed to move loads weighing up to 3.2 t. A fourth wall-mounted travelling crane will be of double-girder design with an outreach of 11 m and will be equipped with travelling hoists, that each have a load capacity of 5 t. Thanks to the wall-mounted travelling cranes that operate along the wall of the bay, Siemens Gas Turbine Technology will benefit from versatile cranes that can be used for assembly work and which offer a wide operating radius.

The scope of delivery also includes power supply lines measuring some 430 m in length, which will be installed for reliable power supply to the cranes.

Joint venture to address specific market demand

OOO Siemens Gas Turbine Technologies (SGTT) is а joint venture of Siemens AG (65%) and OJSC Power Machines (35%) and was founded in St. Petersburg on December 1st, 2011. SGTT was established on the basis of ООО Interturbo, which was a joint venture of the partners from 1991 to 2011 and assembled gas turbines under license from Siemens AG.

The new company is engaged in the development of gas turbines, localization of production in Russia, assembly, sales, management of projects and service of gas turbines in Russia and CIS countries.
