Cluma Constructs Gantry For Waste Disposal System
Cluma Engineering, as integrator of hoisting products under the trademark Verlinde, has constructed a travelling gantry to handle the containers of the Dilsen-Stokkem city waste disposal system. The Dilsen-Stokkem waste drop-off centre will be opened to the public in September 2008 About 10 containers, one per type of waste material, will be made available to individuals and professionals.
These storage containers are located in two ditches next to the road. The gantry, delivered and installed by Cluma Engineering, is used to handle them and place them on the trucks that will then carry them to the processing centre. The gantry-type bridge is equipped with two electric Eurobloc VT3 cable hoists from Verlinde, each with a 12.5-tonne capacity. It is radio-controlled and can make translations of 28m laterally and more than 40m longitudinally.
To avoid the risk of pulling out the electric supply when the trucks pass under, and for visitors' safety, the customer wanted no cables on the ground. Cluma Engineering integrated an electric power unit directly on the bridge gantry, which is entirely integral with the travelling gantry and supplies it with electricity autonomously, with no wire link to the ground. Cluma also provided the container prehensile spreaders.
