Weihu Bridge Crane for Graphite Electrode Handling Line

On December 21, 2020, the opening ceremony of a 100,000-ton ultra-high-power graphite electrode handling line project was successfully held at an steel plant China. City leaders and Weihua Group President Yu Youfei attended the event. There are more than 300 people including city leaders, suppliers, people of design and construction company participated in the ceremony.




As all know, Graphite electrodes are consumables for smelting iron and steel. And the main characteristics of graphite electrode production are "dirty, tired, and dumb". As an important raw material for steel smelting, and manufacturers have different size requirements for the graphite electrode, and there is no standardized string and transfer equipment. Most of time, people use primitive manual methods. For example, small-diameter graphite electrodes of each furnace requires more than 20-time grouping and transfers, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the efficiency is very low.



To this end, Weihua fabricated several sets of multi-functional intelligent bridge cranes for this project and provide reasonable solution for the successful operation of the project.



The bridge cranes for graphite electrode handling can realize all range handling of graphite electrodes such as storage, grouping, film winding, strings, automatic switching of single and double rows, loading and unloading of single or double rows of multi-specification graphite electrodes. And lifting the furnace cover. It turns the complexity into simplicity. Weihua smart bridge cranes improve the product quality of graphite electrodes and truly realizes the efficient production of graphite electrodes.

As the starting port area of Tongzhou Bay, Lvsi Port is located in the core of the Yangtze River Delta, with outstanding functions of river-ocean combined transport.



Jiangsu Weihua high-end intelligent port equipment project (referred to as Jiangsu Weihua) is the best area for natural berthing of large ships in Lusigang, covering an area of about 1,000 mu , The total length of the terminal coastline is 809 meters, and it is planned to build three 50,000-ton general-purpose berths. The preliminary project investment of the project is 5 billion yuan, and it is expected to be put into operation in June 2023. It mainly designs and manufactures port machinery, large bridges, heavy steel structures and marine engineering equipment.

Jiangsu Weihua is less than 100 kilometers away from Shanghai, and it takes one hour to drive to Shanghai Pudong Airport and Nantong Xingdong Airport.



Recently, the first steel column of the first phase workshop of Jiangsu Weihua High-end Intelligent Port Equipment Project was successfully hoisted. At present, the machines on the project site are roaring, and the workers are intensively carrying out foundation work.



On February 5th, Zhengzhou Weihua High-end Automated Parking Project Groundbreaking Ceremony was grandly held. The start of construction is the first phase of Zhengzhou Weihua pilot base project, with a planned investment of 3 billion yuan. The main projects include the main buildings such as the R&D building, automated parking system production base, and brand exhibition hall.
