7. CABLEWAYS
- Cableways are integral transport solutions for agricultural
products in low slope terrains. The most important benefits of
centro aceros cableway systems are: adaptability and flexibility to
all terrains, lowest operational and maintenance costs, better
quality of transported products, guarantee of transport under any
climatic or soil condition, addition of marginal productive area
and non compacting of the agricultural soil. Centro aceros has
successfully implemented its cableway systems in bananas, oil palm,
flowers, coffee, fruits and intensive cattle and fish farming. This
has allowed centro aceros to become world leader in cableway
systems, a condition recognized by international producers. Centro
aceros has a complete inventory of spare parts and a service
structure to guarantee on time maintenance and repairs.
8. AERIAL GUYING
- These systems are used in banana plantations to protect from
falls due to strong winds, heavy stems or nematodes attack. Better
quality of the stems due to fewer scars created in the field
transport and the improvement in field labor permitted by clean and
free plantation lines are additional benefits of Aerial Guying
systems. It is important to note that Centro Aceros designs the
Aerial Guying systems according to the unique specifications of
each farm and relates it successfully to the Cableway system. Spare
parts and maintenance structure are also available.
9. MOBILE CABLE
- Mobile Cables are suitable for terrains of medium slopes (less
than 45%), are easy to install, adapt to rugged terrains, have low
operational and maintenance costs, quality of products is optimum
and transportation is guaranteed under any climatic or soil
condition. Centro Aceros has installed Mobile Cable systems
successfully in Colombia because we have the equipment and
professional staff that allow us to offer all the back up and
support required by the customers. Spare parts and maintenance are
also available to our customers. Mobile Cables are applicable to
bananas, citrus fruits, avocado and, in general, to any
agricultural product cultivated in high slopes
10. CABLE RAILWAY FOR AGRICULTURAL APPLICATIONS
- Cable railways are used in terrains with slopes higher than 45%
and are usually applied to cross creeks or high depressions, where
crossing at level or different heights is necessary and many times
are the only alternative available due to the high cost of building
roads through mountains. A typical field of application is in
coffee plantations, but they are suitable to any agricultural
product.
- Cable Railways are adaptable to the conditions of the ground,
offering lower costs of operation and maintenance. Cable Railways
guarantee transport independent of weather or ground conditions and
can be loaded and unloaded automatically. This system has been
applied successfully in the coffee sector and can be used in any
agricultural product where road construction is costly due to the
presence of mountains and rainy areas.
11. PACKING HOUSE STRUCTURES & PROCESS EQUIPMENT
- Thanks to our experience in the agricultural sector, Centro
Aceros designs, manufactures and installs complete lines of packing
houses, including steel structures, roofing, gravity and motorized
conveyors, roller and wheel type, scales, both for in line weight
of stems and full trays and boxes, spray chambers, cranes, lifters,
among others. We also design and manufacture auxiliary structures
for composting, garages, storage buildings and other agro
industrial structures. Finally, we carry a complete program of
tools and accessories, such as knives, machetes, files,
wheelbarrow, trays, handbarrows, transport carts, trolleys,
spacers, meshes, etc
12. CRANES
- Cranes are lifting systems used to lift and transport materials
efficiently in defined spaces. Centro Aceros designs, manufactures
and installs systems according to international standards and in
line with customer needs and requirements, guaranteeing better
performance, low maintenance costs, security and reliability of
operation. In Centro Aceros we make EOT cranes, jib cranes, gantry
and semi gantry cranes. Some of the benefits of these systems are
optimizing space, high load capacity, precision and control in
transport, greater security to employees and low costs of
operation.
