Ladle Crane for Steel Plant – Heavy-Duty Molten Metal Handling by Nybon Machinery Group
In the steelmaking industry, lifting molten metal is one of the most dangerous and technically demanding tasks. A ladle crane for steel plant is specially engineered to transport molten steel safely and efficiently across different production stages — from furnace to converter, or to casting stations.
At Nybon Machinery Group, we manufacture robust ladle cranes along with gantry cranes, bridge cranes, jib cranes, and electric hoists. With factory-direct pricing and strict quality control, our cranes combine performance, safety, and durability for tough industrial environments.
What Is a Ladle Crane?
A ladle crane is a high-capacity overhead crane designed to carry steel or iron ladles containing molten metal. These cranes are built with enhanced thermal protection, high-tensile materials, and multi-point safety systems to operate reliably in elevated temperatures and critical lifting zones.
