Crane Steel Plant

Crane

The sound of a bridge crane.
A bridge (overhead) crane is used to handle heavy loads in the plant. The loads are first wrapped with a chain or steel cable and then lifted and transported. The maximum handling weight of this crane is 5 tons.

Metal Ravne is the legal successor to Železarna Ravne. The company's range includes a steel plant programme, which starts the production of all their rolled and forged products. Due to technological modernisation over recent years, the company has all the most important machinery for the production of high-quality steel, including a 45t UHP electric arc furnace, a vacuum ladle furnace and a state-of-the-art ‘teeming pit’ for high-class conventional ingots. Their range of products includes ingots, billets with rounded edges and wide flats, with round, flat and square sections, forged bars, machined forgings, discs, bushes, etc.
