Carousel and stacker cranes

Precast concrete production

FIMEC SH combines heavy-product carousel lines with stacker cranes for precast concrete production. Its engineering covers mould handling, storage and the organisation of production flows.

FIMEC SH

A production line built around the mould

The carousel serves the preparation and pouring stations. Filled moulds then move into storage until the concrete is ready for delayed demoulding. Products are placed on pallets for outfeed.

The stacker crane connects the production circuit to the storage system, bringing mould movements and production operations together within one installation.

What the line supports

Progressive automation of workstations.

Production of bulky or flat components.

Rack extensions independent of the carousel.

Pouring

Semi-automatic station

Storage

Moulds in racks

Outfeed

Products on pallets

Bulky products include manholes, well rings, risers and reducer cones. Flat products include kerbs, fence panels and window sills. The line configuration depends on the product family.

Moulds remain in storage while the concrete cures. The stacker crane retrieves them for demoulding.

FIMEC SH teams, formerly with Alfi Fimec, provide engineering expertise in carousels, stacker cranes and heavy-product handling. The project addresses their integration into your installation.

ALFI Technologies retains its expertise in moulds and presses. FIMEC SH provides engineering for the production line and its material flows.
