Metal, wire and steel

Crane solutions for metal, wire, and steel processing – robust, precise, durable

In metal, wire, and steel processing, large loads must be moved quickly, safely, and precisely – often under demanding conditions. Whether transporting heavy raw materials, turning hot workpieces, or precisely positioning them for further processing: powerful crane systems are the key to efficient processes.

Highest demands on technology and safety

Materials like steel or wire require robust systems with high load capacity, precise control, and reliable operational safety. Operators face the challenge of managing heat, dirt, and heavy loads – without compromising efficiency or occupational safety.

Robust crane technology for heavy tasks

Mainly used are wire rope hoists, chain hoists, trolleys, and modular control solutions. The components from SWF Krantechnik are designed for high loads, long service life, and demanding operating environments – ideal for halls with heavy-duty operations and continuous production cycles.

Reliable operation under extreme conditions

Robust technology withstands heat, dust, and high mechanical load – even in three-shift operation.

Efficient handling of heavy workpieces

High load capacities and precise motion control ensure short cycle times and exact placement.

Long service life with minimal maintenance

High-quality components reduce downtime and enable predictable maintenance.

Adaptation to individual production layouts

Flexible configurations and compact designs adapt to any hall structure and process flow.
