Scrap Handling Overhead Cranes

Most Scrap Handling operations require a 20 ton lift capacity, however we have had experience designing solutions between 10 and 60 tons. The primary considerations in specifying a Scrap Handling system are:

1. Tons to be moved
2. Cycle time
3. Distances moved
4. Highest lift required
5. Any below-the-hook devices such as magnets or grapples

Whiting has produced a number of products for Scrap handling applications. For specific answers to your questions, please contact our Steel Solutions Team or call 800-861-5744.
