BL modules are permanent-electro systems for the movement of billet layers, with load temperatures up to 600° at the core.
Thanks to their unique characteristics, they offer a high clamping force and great reliability and safety when lifting loads. The BL system is available in several configurations.
The solution
BL, the modules for billet handling: high performance with maximum clamping force
Handling billets often involves difficulties when gripping the layer, instability during traversing and when releasing the load. The operation represents an important cost in terms of the time necessary to complete the process, as well as being a potential source of risks for the operator on the ground.
The BL series permanent-electro modules respond to handling needs by offering a high clamping force with safety features and reliability unattainable by other technologies. BL modules hook the load from above without damaging it.
A single operator is able to fully complete picking, handling and releasing operations while remaining at a distance from the load, avoiding the use of ropes or chains and without the need for spacers between the billets.
The BL system is available in different configurations, optimised for different application sectors:
Advantages
The BL system has numerous advantages:
- Quick manoeuvring times Productivity increase
- Permanent-electro systems Insensitive to power failures: total safety for operators and equipment
- Maintenance free No backup batteries required
- PICKUP System Loads beyond the limit value cannot be lifted
- System DAUTANAC Demagnetization during handling is prevented
