Slab Cutting Line
For the installation of a new automatic slab cutting line in the plate mill of voestalpine Stahl GmbH, we received the order for the engineering of the complete plant.
In the slab cutting line, the slabs are measured, marked, divided into short slabs and deburred.
The plant is loaded and unloaded with the overhead crane.
The plant is loaded and unloaded with the overhead crane.
After placing the slab they are turned over if necessary and transported through the system to the individual processing steps, until finally the divided slabs are stacked on the lifting table and lifted off by the crane.
All the necessary components were newly developed by Buma, and the purchased machines (marking, cutting, deburring) were fully integrated into the system.
Technical Data:
- Slab Thickness: 180 - 400 mm
- Slab Width: 1.100 - 2.200 mm
- Slab Length: 3.900 - 12.240 mm
- Weight: 7,5 - 43 tons
- Temperature of the slabs: max. 700 °C
- Shortest possible slab length after cutting: 1.500 mm
