It is designed specifically to improve the speed and efficiency of the material handling function for concrete precast and prestressed product manufacturers using the WetCast or DryCast process.

Demag has long been the world’s leading supplier of cranes for concrete pipe producers, and designs and installs systems for both indoor and outdoor applications. Demag’s application experience and the design of the systems results in throughput improvements up to 20% in critical areas of the manufacturing process, particularly in the process of moving pipe from the production machine to the environmentally-controlled kiln area.
