Heavy-duty cranes for non-stop plants.

A cement plant runs 24/7, and its mills, kiln and crushers are maintained with the heaviest lifts on site. LOADMATE supplies heavy-duty EOT and double-girder cranes built for the abrasive dust and continuous duty of cement and mineral plants.

We know your plant

Cement, area by area.

Cement is a continuous-process business: the kiln and mills run around the clock, and the plant only stops for planned maintenance. When it does, the maintenance cranes lift the heaviest, most awkward components on site — mill liners, grinding rollers, kiln rollers and gearboxes — against a tight shutdown clock.

LOADMATE builds for that reality: heavy-duty EOT and double-girder cranes with high duty classes, dust-sealed electricals and robust structures that survive the abrasive, round-the-clock environment of a cement or mineral plant.

Where we lift

Walk the plant — click any area.

Each area has its own loads, its own hazards, and its own way of testing a crane. Tap a stage to jump to it.

Hammers, liners & rock

Where the abrasion begins

Limestone and additives are crushed and stockpiled in the dustiest, most abrasive part of the plant. Crusher maintenance — hammers, liners, rotors — means heavy lifts in a punishing environment.

What hangs from the hookCrusher hammers, liners, rotors, apron-feeder parts.
When the crane failsA crusher down chokes the feed to the whole plant.

Rollers, liners & girth gear

The maintenance-critical core

The raw mill, preheater and rotary kiln are the heart of the plant. Maintaining them means lifting grinding rollers, mill liners, kiln rollers and girth-gear segments — heavy, precise lifts in confined, hot areas.

What hangs from the hookVRM rollers, mill liners, kiln tyres/rollers, girth-gear segments, gearboxes.
When the crane failsA kiln or raw-mill stoppage halts the entire plant — the costliest downtime in cement.
The LOADMATE answerDouble-girder EOT cranes with main + auxiliary hoists and VFD micro-speed for precise component placement.

Grates, liners & rollers

Grinding-circuit duty

Clinker is cooled and ground to cement in the cooler and cement mills. Cooler grates, ball-mill liners and VRM grinding rollers are heavy wear parts replaced on every shutdown.

What hangs from the hookCooler grates, ball-mill liners, grinding rollers, gearboxes.
When the crane failsA cement-mill stall cuts dispatch-grade output directly.
The LOADMATE answerHeavy-duty EOT cranes sized to the heaviest liner or roller, with robust, dust-protected design.

Packers, filters & equipment

From silo to truck

Cement is packed and loaded for dispatch, with packers, bag filters and conveyors needing regular maintenance handling alongside loadout.

What hangs from the hookRotary packers, bag-filter parts, conveyor drives, motors.
When the crane failsA packing-plant stoppage backs up dispatch and the silos.
The LOADMATE answerEOT cranes and wire rope hoists for packing-plant maintenance and loadout areas.

FAQs

Cement — common questions.

What capacity do you supply for mill maintenance?

Heavy double-girder EOT cranes sized to your heaviest mill liner, roller or gearbox — commonly up to ~100 t, with auxiliary hoists for two load ranges.

Are the cranes built for cement-plant dust?

Yes — dust-sealed and pressurised electricals, sealed bearings and abrasion-tolerant finishes for the continuous dusty environment.

Can you meet shutdown schedules?

We size duty class and provide VFD micro-speed and dual hoists so maintenance lifts are fast and precise, helping you hit a tight shutdown window.

Do you cover the whole plant or just the mills?

From crusher and raw-material areas through kiln, mills, cooler and packing — cranes and hoists for every maintenance area.

Which standards do you build to?

IS 3177 and IS 807 for cranes, IS 3938 for wire rope hoists, with ISO 9001:2015 and ZED Gold certification, and a 125% load test.
