Scrap Handling

Nucor General Recycling installed a 700 Series E-Crane for feeding auto bodies into a shredder at their facility near Jackson.

This impressive 3000 Series E-Crane® has changed the skyline of the steel mill and is now the heart of the scraplogistics between the port and the steel mill.

In 2008 the first E-Crane® was delivered to IÇDAŞ’ Biga steel mill soon followed by an identical unit in 2009.

The E-Crane is used for stockpiling the scrap to a height of over 25 meters, necessary to ensure there is enough scrap ready for the loading of Handymax ships.

E-Crane provided a proven scrap yard layout and the material handling equipment for improved performance.

In July 2007, the 1000B Series E-Crane® was installed next to the 700 Series E-Crane® at the villa Constitución plant.

River Metals Recycling replaced several conventional material handlers by the 1000 Series E-Crane, that is now feeding the world’s largest shear.

For Harsco Metals’ scrap management project at Arcelor’s new stainless steel mill, two 1000 Series E-Cranes have been working simultaneously at the Ugine & ALZ Carinox site since 2005.

This 1000 Series E-Crane is used to feed a shear at the scrap yard in Menen, Galloo Group.
