KBK Aluline |
Versatile and extendible for many applications
KBK Aluline is used for applications in which a wide variety of lifting, transportation and handling tasks can be carried out by lighter track and crane systems.
Whatever you need to lift, wherever it is
Whether for industrial, retail or service facilities, in special manufacturing environments and storage facilities or even theatres and studios – KBK Aluline systems provide the optimum solution.
Typical features of KBK Aluline include
- very low weight for high rigidity
- highly precise components
- anodized surfaces with an attractive finish
- very easy assembly
- compact design
KBK Aluline can be used to construct both single and double-girder suspension cranes for area-serving transport requirements as well as straight suspension monorail systems for straight connections between workplaces.
Standard lengths are suspended from articulated fittings (KBK classic suspensions). KBK ergo components are used for overhung and manipulator cranes.
Aluminium and steel profile sections can be combined within an installation. For example, a steel profile section can be used for a crane runway and a light aluminium profile section as a crane girder.
Existing installations can be modified easily and cost-effectively by adding new parts or replacing existing components to meet new needs.
KBK Aluline components
Simple and reliable assembly
The KBK Aluline crane construction kit enables you to design almost any overhead suspension crane or monorail system. The track sections measuring up to eight metres in length are simply and reliably connected. They can be assembled quickly and precisely by hand as a "do-it-yourself" kit.
Profile sections
The basic element is a profile section rail that is available in two sizes. The unique matt silver look of anodized aluminium gives KBK Aluline an almost weightless appearance. Cavities in the upper and lower parts of the track sections ensure great mechanical rigidity. Slots along the track sections make it easy to mount attachments.
Trolleys
The trolleys run smoothly and quietly on plastic travel wheels mounted in anti-friction bearings which are lubricated for life. KBK classic trolleys feature an articulated, torque-free pin connection. KBK ergo trolleys can also accommodate kick-up forces.
Joint connections
Matching interface dimensions and precise bolted connections enable KBK Aluline profile sections to be assembled quickly and easily.
Suspensions
Standard systems are fitted with KBK classic suspensions. Equipped with articulated joints, they provide a low-torque connection to the support superstructure. Special systems designed to accommodate offset loads are fitted with KBK ergo suspensions.
Power supply
Highly flexible and cold-resistant flat cables are individually suspended from cable sliders or cable trolleys in groups.
