The cranes were factory-equipped with a 25kW magnet system and 220V generator. Sennebogen said a total of 18 batteries were installed to maintain the magnetic holding force for up to 15 minutes.
The two 640 M mobile cranes load 2t steel coils, working for up to ten hours a day at 30 cycles per hour. Sennebogen said the cranes had enabled the steel firm to increase productivity by 20%
Al-Ezz Dekheila has already ordered more of the cranes, this time fitted with a modified magnet system that allows the crane to handle the steel bundles as well as coils.
