Ensuring safety and efficiency throughout every step of the process.
Steel and other metals are integral to the world we live in. From the smallest gears inside wristwatches to beams in the world’s largest buildings, metal is all around us. And, with its necessity, comes a demand for smarter technology, increased safety, and more efficient production throughout every step of the process.
EMC provides innovative technology used in all stages of metal production, from scrap handling to distribution. We understand the need to work smarter and safer and are committed to developing solutions to help you do just that.
Working together, our products help you monitor and precisely control the processes and machinery that are critical to your business while providing real-time diagnostics to keep you up and running. We know safety is a priority. With extreme ambient temperatures, high dust exposure and strict safety regulations, our products are built for durability and reliability in even the harshest conditions.
Whether you need a complete control system, rugged wire rope and chain hoists, actuators for process synchronization, diagnostic tools for maintenance planning, state-of-the-art automation capabilities or even a simple plate clamp, EMC has the technical expertise to design custom products and systems for your unique applications.
Intelligent motion solutions build safety right into the steel handling equipment, systems, and processes running in the steel mill, helping you keep operators safe and better informed of system status, equipment life, and so much more. We understand the need to work smarter and are committed to developing solutions to help you do just that.
From cranes handling thousands of pounds of scrap steel to those transporting liquid metal at very high temperatures, the safety of both workers and equipment is critical in a steel manufacturing plant. By building safety right into the equipment, systems and processes running in the steel mill, you can keep operators safe and better informed of what is going on through every step of the process.
The demand to incorporate smart solutions and automation throughout every step of the steelmaking process is rapidly increasing. From steel production to distribution, innovative technology helps increase your safety, uptime, and productivity.
To increase speed and efficiency, our customer adapted an automated Larry Car containing an onboard weighing system and a hopper to capture alloy materials from eight overhead alloy material storage bins. In this configuration, the Larry Car travels between the two BOFs on rails. It unloads the alloy materials directly into the BOF by opening and closing the hopper dump gate. Duff-Norton’s SuperCylinder RO530-B47-015 powers the dump gate motion.
