Specifically, Infrared offers the benefits of reduced process times and energy costs. Investigations are currently ongoing for using Infrared heating in the coating repair market in the offshore and chemical processing sectors. The treatment facilty comprised of a number of dipping tanks in a line 30 metres long. The crane system would need to lift a large cage containing production items from the floor to a height that just cleared the tanks and it would them travel along the line of tanks lowering the cage into any particular tank and releasing it. The crane would also of course have to recover and relocate the cage after treatment. Linian Crane and Hoist Company were asked to design a bespoke lifting system for a sizable metal treatment facility that was being manufactured by a client of theirs. It was decided that a completely free standing gantry system be installed and that two cranes would be supplied each to carry a load of up to 5 tonnes. Ian Watson, Managing Director of Linian Crane and Hoist Company, said “This is yet another great example of Linian’s ability to tailor bespoke lifting solutions to customer’s individual and specific requirements”. Heraeus specialises in the production and application of high quality energy sources covering the electro-magnetic spectrum from ultraviolet to infra-red. The client commented “ A very impressive performance from Ian and the team at Linian Cranes, we are delighted with the end result “. www.heraeus-infraredsolutions.co.uk Tel - 0151 353 2710 Fax – 0151 353 2719 www.www.linian.com LEADING PRODUCTS AND EXCELLENT SERVICE Tsubaki delivers innovative solutions that fi t the most demanding industries and environments PREMIUM DRIVE CHAIN ANTI CORROSION CHAIN LUBE FREE CHAIN LARGE SIZE CONVEYOR CHAIN ATC CHAIN SPROCKETS CAM CLUTCH/ FREEWHEELS COUPLINGS Tsubakimoto Europe B.V. | [email protected] TSUR_18391_ADV_Best Choiche_180x132mm_V2.indd 1 tsubaki.eu Tsubakimoto UK Ltd. | [email protected] 09-10-18 14:05 Issue 35 PECM 37
