Ipatinga steel complex revamping project
Brazilian company USIMINAS, one of the largest producers of steel in the Americas, awarded TAIM WESER the development of a new heavy duty crane to replace an existing equipment for its steel making shop in Ipatinga.
TAIM WESER’s scope of supply included the design, manufacture and commissioning of a highly engineered EOT crane, designed to handle heavy loads with high accuracy, attending to customer requirements. This crane has a four girders and two trolleys structure, with a 260 ton main hoist mechanism placed on the principal trolley and a 40 ton auxiliary hoist mechanism placed on the auxiliary trolley.
