Two double girder overhead cranes are to be used in Jazan Economic City, Saudi Arabia, where Outotec is building a new ilmenite smelter for Christal Global, which is the world’s second largest producer of titanium oxide. Terex Material Handling has been awarded the contract for the delivery of two Demag casting cranes, the company announced late last week.
The two identical cranes, which have load capacities of up to 120t, will be used for handling casting ladles and for feeding the casting furnaces with molten metal.
Lutz Dowy, head of process cranes at Demag Cranes, said: “Our focus on specific applications, such as those in the steel production sector, has enabled us to develop in-depth expertise in the industry. Our customers benefit from this wealth of knowledge, since we are able to offer them crane solutions that are engineered to meet their exact needs.”
Dowy added that the company’s global presence also played a significant role in this contract award: “An important benefit from the customer’s point of view is our global sales and service network, which also provides for professional maintenance and rapid service in Saudi Arabia. The services we provide contribute significantly towards ensuring the high level of availability that owners of industrial equipment expect from all components used in their installations.”
