In a statement, Pintsch Bubenzer said the orders have arisen from a number of Nucor mills, including Nucor Steel-Utah.

“We have installed Pintsch Bubenzer brakes on our hot metal cranes,” said Jeff Johnson, crane and mobile lead at Nucor Steel Utah.  “This has created redundancy in case of a gear train failure. This is a very cost-efficient solution to provide more safety in our production environment that can be accomplished in a short period of time.”
