These are all factors which must be considered when choosing handling equipment for loads from 10t up to many hundreds of tons.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OHJV3Y4h-W0?si=zT2_3yk0i2o1K2T9\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>According to steel industry experts there are 5 significant steel supply chain issues:<\/p>\n<p>Unsecured Material Handling, Material shortages, Keeping up with demand, Rising costs and Improper Logistics Plans. The first one is Morello\u2019s area of expertise!<\/p>\n<p>Steel is loaded, moved, and unloaded in factories around the world every day. Accidents happen. They involve the mechanical handling of loads, falling from vehicles, etc. The vehicle moving steel coil or plate must be safe and designed to carry the load.<\/p>\n<p>Structural integrity, decarbonised operations, safety first, operational efficiency are all keywords when it comes to factory productivity and profitability.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wzvCXvXCLSs?si=Yk63p9G_5B7j1Hwe\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>With over 75 years\u2019 experience in the industry, Morello is an expert in supplying electric, wheel based, transfer equipment to top steel corporations all over the world.<\/p>\n<p>So, more specifically, what type of solutions does Morello propose for moving steel coil, plate, bars, cord, scrap metals and more.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OU7Ur6JyISk?si=HKxBmuovvHeH92n1\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>As Experts in steel intralogistics, Morello custom designs moving equipment based on the characteristics of the manufacturing plant, the working environment and the product to be moved.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the custom designed product solutions we propose are as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>SGAI<\/strong>: battery powered platform carts, wheel based, remote controlled<\/li>\n<li><strong>OMNI<\/strong>: similar to the SGAI, with multi-directional steering and a unique all-wheel drive and hydraulic compensation system.<\/li>\n<li><strong>AGV<\/strong>: similar to the above carts, while operating in complete autonomy without operator, integrated into a client\u2019s production process.<\/li>\n<li><strong>RAIL RGV<\/strong>: similar to above with rail guidance for when production cycle requirements are standard, frequent, with fixed routes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In order to provide a low-risk, logistically efficient, environmentally sustainable solution Morello designs transfer cart solutions using the latest lithium battery technology, with factory decarbonisation benefits, eliminating noise and air pollution and creating an eco-friendly workplace.<\/p>\n<p>The data collection phase is followed by the project design phase, and allows the Morello design engineering team to propose a solution which will satisfy all the clients operating requirements.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Steel Coil in Mexico<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the case of a steel coil manufacturing plant in Mexico, moving steel coils within the plant involved loading, transferring, and unloading. This is obviously a standard requirement for steel plants of this type and the equipment used is a \u2018coil car\u2019. Integrating the coil car\u2019s software into the plant\u2019s operating system gives huge operating efficiencies. Saddle rests on the coil cars hold the steel coils secure, in this case for loads up to 35 tons.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Steel Tube in Texas<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the case of a steel tube manufacturing plant in Texas, USA, a system was required to move SRM mill stands, used for the production of seamless pipes. Up to 6 SRM mill stands had to be moved simultaneously, with loads of up to 65 tons. The equipment had to be moved in two directions both parallel to and perpendicular to the SRM rolling mill. Morello designed a heavy-duty trolley system with 6 rail carts to move one or more SRM mill stands to their required positions, parallel to the rolling mill. An RFID transponder informed the rail cart at which mill stand it should stop.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IdwZzJob_hs?si=7D12o7M80FYY0PgC\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Steel Foundries worldwide<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For steel foundries, Morello is among the top companies in the world for producing Steel Scrap Bucket Carts with electric motors powered by the latest generation lithium batteries.
