Energy and heating plant Riikinvoima in Leppävirta, Finland, chose to automate the entire material flow with Konecranes solutions. The plant’s design calls for two cranes over the waste reception hall to load waste into a shredder. Then, the cranes feed the processed material into the boiler. Either of the cranes can complete the process alone, or work in tandem with the other crane.
Cranes lift and lower loads with a hoist that is attached to a trolley. The trolley moves back and forth along a bridge. The bridge moves along a runway. Some cranes – such as a jib crane – don’t have a bridge but still have a hoist attached to a trolley and can move a load in a horizontal direction.
