Intelligent quenching overhead cranes are professional heat-treatment lifting equipment dedicated to hoisting hot metal profiles and bars to complete automated quenching workflows. After red-hot metal blanks exit heating furnaces, flat cars deliver them to preset stations. The intelligent quenching crane automatically travels to target positions, submerges high-temperature workpieces into quenching tanks for thermal treatment, then lifts finished parts and places them at designated storage areas, standing by for subsequent cycle commands. The equipment operates stably under extreme working conditions with workpiece temperatures up to 1050°C alongside intense radiant heat and heavy moisture. The core highlight of this crane solution lies in fully unmanned and autonomous automatic cyclic operation.
Weihua full-series overhead lifting equipment is extensively deployed across mechanical processing, metallurgical smelting, power generation, railway logistics, port terminals, petroleum exploitation and chemical manufacturing sectors. Our specialized cranes have supported numerous national key construction projects and production bases of large industrial conglomerates worldwide.
-
Patented self-developed wire rope balancing adjustment device from Weihua
The hoisting unit adopts a single-drive dual-winding-drum layout to guarantee synchronous lifting at two load-bearing points. The dedicated wire rope adjustment module enables rapid horizontal calibration of the lifting spreader without complicated manual tuning.
-
Independently patented intelligent anti-sway control system
The whole crane is fitted with rigid vertical guide pillars and horizontal guiding wheel assemblies, which deliver effective load swing suppression and high-precision spatial positioning during high-temperature workpiece transfer.
-
Specialized C-hook lifting spreader for quenching processes
Matched exclusive spreader with multiple detachable pin-type C-shaped hooks; all connecting joints are arranged on lateral sides. This layout simplifies routine maintenance and maximizes available vertical lifting clearance inside heat-treatment workshops.
-
Multi-mode intelligent integrated control platform
Supporting wireless remote operation and wired ground pendant control, the system adopts world-renowned wireless communication hardware to realize real-time data exchange between central control stations and the crane body. Operators can switch freely between manual remote mode and fully automatic unmanned running mode.
-
Error-free high-precision positioning system
Absolute encoders and position limit sensors conduct real-time position calibration to eliminate accumulated coordinate deviation, achieving stable millimeter-level accurate positioning of hot workpieces.
-
Comprehensive safety interlock & high processing efficiency
The control system receives real-time scheduling instructions from upper-level central management systems to complete full-automatic unmanned workflows. Built-in functional modules include shock-free steady load transport, soft start hoisting, rapid quenching circulation and multi-directional anti-collision protection.
