Loading/offloading slabs and plates - Rotterdam,
The Netherlands |
One of the largest harbour companies from Rotterdam was awarded
the project for loading and offloading approximately 5 million
tons of slabs and plates per year from seagoing vessels.
In such an operation, with 24 hour input, you need the best
people and the best material. This internationally operating
Rotterdam Company already has such people. |

But to obtain special magnets
was not a simple task.
The magnets with accompanying magnet control installation
had to meet the highest requirements. Lifting capacity, reliability,
as well as working-speed was extensively dealt with. |
| After extensive research of international
suppliers, it was decided on electro-magnets. These are capable
of lifting multiple plates per lift. |
The combination with a special magnet control
installation ensures the greatest safety
and reliability.
The so-called "electric permanent magnets" offers
a theoretic (apparent) safety. You really should not use this
in an international harbour such as Rotterdam. |

K.W.
Supply has much experience in designing and building/installing
large heavy purpose magnets for use with steel factories and
trans-shipment companies.
Because of this, K.W.
Supply has established a good name world-wide.
This did not pass by unnoticed in the Rotterdam harbour either. |
