Extension of the pallet transport system at Bhushan Steel

Bhushan Steel Ltd., India, has issued an order  to SMS Logistik systeme, Germany, for the extension of the pallet transport system for hot-rolled coils at the Angul location in the federal state of Orissa.

Together with the hot rolling mill from SMS Siemag, the first coil conveying system was delivered to Bhushan Steel already in 2009. In the present extension, a pallet transport system will link a new storage bay to the existing system and thereby enable the facilities located there, such as the shearing lines and levelers, to be optimally supplied with hot-rolled coils.

The coil transport will first of all take place through a tunnel under-neath a road. The coils will then be lifted up by a lifting table to store level, from where they will be  conveyed along the bay columns to the crane takeover positions.

The modular structure and high flexibility of the pallet transport system allow existing plants and facilities to be extended without any problems.

The supply scope of SMS Logistiksysteme comprises the complete engineering as well as the manufacture, erection supervision and commissioning of the transport equipment, including the automation and the material tracking.
