Ancofer Waldram Steelplates (AWS)

Where thousands tons of material and products with enormous dimensions are moved and processed every day, there is no space for experiments. Safety and efficiency take top priority in steel trading and processing.

This is also acknowledged by the market leader in the Benelux countries, AncoferWaldram Steelplates (AWS), based in Oosterhout in the Netherlands, who commissioned us once again with the delivery of a crane.

The task of the new crane is the loading and unloading of trucks and the charging of the firing table. Our business was the construction of a turntable crane with least design height and equipped with load-stabilized hoist. Regardless of the slewing position and direction of travel, this guarantees especially stable movement without swinging – for quickest handling times with simultaneous protection of the machines and humans. Developed in-house, the cable reeving enables the greatest possible pickup spacing of the rope anchorages at the traverse with minimum offtake from the cable drums. We were therefore able to achieve the necessary small approach dimensions with a total load-carrying capacity of 35 t. Scheffer and AWS: two companies with a passionate understanding of their business – and yet another successful joint project.
