The industrial service provider contacted KAUP for the first time in the spring of 2019. Everything happened very quickly from that point. An intensive exchange between a small design team at KAUP and the other members of the project team followed. “In the process we were confronted with a few interesting challenges” reports KAUP designer Bernd Ackermann. “The size of the device and the tight schedule were two aspects” according to Ackermann. “The adapted flanged couplings and the completely new welded fitting were two further decisive factors”, explains the experienced designer in addition. “Because we also hadn’t designed anything like this before.” But after about ten weeks – in October 2019 – the challenging production process could be begun. For example, the forks had to be welded manually to the huge base plate in a laborious process. Actually two times. After all, the customer ordered two 60T391.

2019年春，这家工业服务提供商初次与KAUP取得联系，从那时起，项目很顺利的开始了。随后，KAUP专业设计团队与项目团队进行了深入交流。设计人员阿克曼说到，“在这个过程中，我们遇到了一些挑战，设备的尺寸和项目的紧迫性是两个重要因素，匹配的法兰联轴器和全新的焊接配件是另外两个关键因素”，经验丰富的设计师还解释道，因为我们以前也没有设计过这类产品，但大约十周后—2019年10月—富有挑战性的生产过程启动。例如，我们需要在一系列复杂的工艺过程中，手工两次焊接货叉到巨大的底板上，毕竟，客户订购了两台60T391旋转器。

After intensive tests on in-house test rigs specially built for this project, the rotators weighing over 13 tonnes each left the factory in Aschaffenburg at the beginning of February 2020. The journey then began initially to Poland. There, the attachments, which are 4,600 mm wide and 3,475 mm high, were mounted onto huge Kalmar fork lift trucks. Afterwards was the journey to IJmuiden. This logistical challenge alone was enormous, because the complete fork lift trucks had to be partially dismantled for the transport. Otherwise they would not have fitted onto the trucks. Even so, four trucks were necessary for each fork lift for the transport to the Netherlands.

历经一系列专业室内测试，2020年2月初，每台重量超过13吨的旋转器离开了阿斯哈芬堡工厂，到达波兰，在那里，4600 mm宽、3475mm高的属具安装在巨大的卡尔玛叉车上，之后发往艾默登。运输如此庞然大物，本身物流也是巨大的挑战，因为在运输时必须部分拆卸叉车，否则，它们就不便装运在卡车上，即使如此，每台叉车仍需四辆卡车才能运到荷兰。

They have been in daily use there since mid-May 2020 and have since then completed thousands of loading cycles. “Our initial enthusiasm is still there, as the solution now in use meets all the demands we made” is how those responsible in the Netherlands summarise the project. They are “happy that we were able to implement this challenging project in this way“.

自2020年5月中旬起，KAUP旋转器每天都在那里工作，完成了数千次装载循环。”我们最初的期望仍然存在，现在的解决方案满足了我们提出的所有要求。”这是荷兰负责人总结项目时提到的，他们“很高兴KAUP能完成如此具有挑战性的项目”。

Current process

What do the loading cycles look like, and how is the new disposal process designed? The new skips are automatically loaded with slag in the steelworks 24/7. To be able to transport the skips more easily into the emptying hall, there is a special truck trailer – a so-called transport cassette. Two skips fit into the cassette. A terminal tractor takes it to near the hall. A Kalmar fork lift truck picks up the full skips and moves them in sequence into a roofed, open storage building. The full, still hot containers stay there to cool, so processing is possible. This starts with emptying the skips in the new factory building. Inside there are not only large misting machines that provide permanent humidity in the building to bind the dust that is caused, the slag unloading area with enormous suction systems and a highly modern filter system is found there as well. The rectangular area is on the edge of the building. Two sides are enclosed and two have an opening. These are used to bring in the hot slag on one side and to transport away the cooled remaining material on the other.

装载周期是什么样的？新的处理炉渣流程是如何设计的？新的容器在炼钢厂24/7自动装载炉渣。为了更容易地将容器运输到卸料大厅，有一种特殊的卡车拖车，即所谓的运输卡带。每两个容器装进运输卡带，然后由终端拖拉机把它拖到大厅附近。一辆叉车吊起容器，并将它们依次移入到一个有屋顶的仓库。满载并发热的容器留在那里继续冷却，处理过程是可行的。从清空新厂房中的容器开始，室内不仅有大型喷雾机，可控制室内长时期湿度，由此减少灰尘。在卸渣区域，有抽风系统和高度现代化的过滤系统。矩形区域位于建筑物的边缘，两边是封闭的，有两个开口，在一侧引入热熔渣，在另一侧运走冷却后的剩余材料。

The unloading process is then extremely simple. A Kalmar fork lift truck transports the full skip to the unloading point. During this a large curtain moves slowly down and closes off the third side of the unloading area. The fork lift truck-attachment combination stands on the remaining fourth side. Before it can continue, a temperature measurement is made. Only if this measures the correct, low temperature, a traffic light allows unloading. Afterwards, the hydraulics of the big Kalmar drive the 60T391. The full skip rotates. At around 90°, physics takes over. The extremely heavy, hot slag falls onto the floor with a thud and makes it shudder. Dust is caused. But outside the unloading point, there is no sign of this, as it is immediately sucked up and filtered. The rotator then returns the now empty skip to its original position. It is now ready for a new loading cycle.

卸载过程非常简单，叉车将整个容器运输至卸载点，期间，一个大卷帘缓慢向下移动，并关闭卸载区域的第三面，叉车属具位于第四侧，在继续作业之前，先测量温度。只有到正确的低温时，指示灯才允许卸货。之后，叉车液压系统驱动60T391旋转器，启动旋转功能。在90°左右，动作完成。极重的热熔渣砰的一声落在地板上，地面颤抖，引起灰尘。但在卸载点之外，不会出现这类问题，因为灰尘会立即被吸走并过滤。之后，旋转器将返回到其初始位置，等待下一轮作业。
