In the steel production process, continuous casting machines are responsible for continuously casting high-temperature molten steel into specific cross-sectional shapes and size specifications of castings. The construction of continuous casting machine equipment is complex, covering multiple parts such as steel transportation device, intermediate ladle, crystallizer, secondary cooling zone clamping roller, tension straightening machine, cutting equipment, ingot introduction device, etc. These devices work together to complete the conversion process from steel to billet.

Hand pulled hoists play an important role in lifting operations such as installation, maintenance, and overhaul of continuous casting equipment. Hand pulled hoists, as a type of manual lifting equipment, are widely used in complex environments such as steel plants due to their simple structure, convenient operation, and easy portability. When lifting continuous casting equipment, a chain hoist is usually used in conjunction with steel wire rope rigging. Steel wire rope rigging has the advantages of high strength, good toughness, and large load-bearing capacity, and can reliably lift equipment components of various shapes and weights. Hand pulled haws mainly serve to tighten and secure the structure. After firmly binding the components of the continuous casting machine equipment with steel wire ropes, the tension of the ropes can be accurately adjusted by operating the chain block, ensuring that the equipment remains stable during lifting and avoiding collision damage caused by shaking and displacement, providing strong guarantee for the safe lifting of the equipment.

Compared to other complex lifting equipment, chain hoists have obvious advantages in lifting continuous casting machine equipment. It does not require a complex electric drive system and can easily operate in areas with inconvenient power supply or safety hazards. Moreover, its operation is simple, and ordinary workers can proficiently use it after simple training, greatly improving work efficiency, reducing labor costs, and bringing many conveniences to the maintenance of continuous casting equipment in steel plants.
