| Metallurgy Rotator Turning Device

The rotator turning device for the metallurgical industry is a heavy duty material rotating equipment that integrates lifting, turning and positioning functions into a single system. Designed to work in conjunction with overhead crane, the turning system enables the safe and efficient rotation of workpieces through angles ranging from 0° to 360°, significantly improving production efficiency while reducing the risks associated with manual operation.

Heavy Duty Turning Solution Designed for the Metallurgical Industry

Our load turning device adopts high strength steel structure. Key load-bearing components have passed finite element analysis and rigorous load tests, ensuring stable and reliable operation under metallurgical working conditions featuring high temperature, heavy load, continuous running and complex environments. Flexible belt slings or chain slings can be configured for different workpieces to achieve safe and efficient load bearing.

Typical Applications

• Steel ingot turning

• Steel plate flipping

• Large casting rotation

• Heavy mold turning

• Steel structure welding rotating

• Special metallurgical equipment assembly

Integration of the Turning Device with an Overhead Crane

Our rotator turning device is generally used with overhead crane to form a complete lifting and rotating solution. In metallurgical workshops, operator can complete the following operations via wireless remote controllers or control panels:

• Lifting the workpiece

• Setting the rotation angle

• Automatic synchronized turning

• Precise positioning and placement

This integrated operation mode greatly cuts down manual work, raises workshop automation level, eases labor intensity and ensures personnel safety.

Performance Features: Built for Heavy Industrial Environments

• Superior heavy-load capacity, covering rated loads from 1 ton to 50 tons

• Robust structure, suitable for high-frequency continuous operation

• High temperature resistant design, adaptable to metallurgical workshop environments

• Smooth lifting and turning with no obvious impact load

• Easy maintenance and long service life

• Customizable design to fit various workpiece dimensions

Case Study: Steel Coil Turning Project for a Large Steel Manufacturer

A large steel manufacturer required a solution to rotate steel coils weighing approximately 15 tons by 180 degrees before entering the subsequent packaging process. The original operation relied on two overhead cranes working together, which was complicated and time-consuming. After extensive technical communication with the client, KUNFENG designed a 20 ton load turning system that was integrated with the existing overhead crane infrastructure.

Following installation, the client achieved:

• Single turning time reduced by approximately 60%

• Manpower cut by over 50%

• Greatly improved turning accuracy

• Overall production line efficiency increased by around 30%

After long-term operation, the rotator device has demonstrated excellent reliability under high-frequency working conditions and delivered substantial economic benefits to the client.
