A Major Steel Group in Qatar Partners with WTAU to Enhance Lifting Safety with Overload Limiters.

Dec. 15, 2025

Recently, a Qatari steel group officially ordered the WTZ-A300 overload limiter developed by WTAU to upgrade the safety protection system of its factory's gantry cranes. This collaboration marks WTAU's successful entry into the core steel manufacturing sector of the Middle East with its intelligent safety equipment.

In steel production, gantry cranes frequently handle heavy materials such as steel coils and plates. Overloading can lead to serious risks, including equipment damage and production interruptions.  Therefore, a reliable overload protection device is crucial for ensuring continuous production.

Three Major Technological Advantages:


1. Extreme Environmental Adaptability:  Featuring an IP65 protection rating enclosure and wide temperature range design, it can easily handle the high-temperature and dry industrial environment of Qatar, while also withstanding the complex working conditions of steel mills, including dust and vibration.


2. High-Precision Intelligent Protection:  Adhering to national standards for overload protection devices in lifting machinery, it eliminates overload risks at the source through a three-level safety response mechanism (audible and visual warnings, power cutoff, and fault recording).


3. Flexible Adaptability:  Supports independent monitoring of single and double hooks, as well as synchronous operation monitoring of multiple hooks. It can seamlessly integrate with the existing PLC control systems of steel mills' gantry cranes, enabling real-time visualization and traceability management of load data.


Notably, the Weite overload limiter has proven its reliability in various extreme working conditions worldwide – previously successfully applied to a 1000-ton gantry crane at Qingdao Offshore Oil, and also operating stably in scenarios such as deep-sea energy platforms in Nigeria and shipyards in Malaysia.


As global industrial safety standards continue to rise, overload protection devices that combine reliability, intelligence, and environmental adaptability are becoming essential equipment in heavy industries such as steel, energy, and ports. In the future, Weite will continue to deepen its efforts in more equipment safety upgrade projects, contributing to the safe and efficient development of the steel industry.
