Shenyang Weizhong’s Ultra-Heavy-Duty Turntable for Calgon Carbon

In 2015, Shenyang Weizhong Revolving Machinery designed and manufactured an 8.5-meter-diameter industrial turntable for Calgon Carbon, USA, capable of supporting an extraordinary 350-ton total load. The platform was engineered to hold ten 30-ton cylindrical tanks, demanding unparalleled structural integrity and precision.

To ensure flawless performance, Shenyang Weizhong conducted rigorous pre-delivery testing, simulating maximum load conditions by stacking 350 tons of steel plate coils on the turntable. The platform’s patented Pin-Gear drive system demonstrated exceptional reliability under extreme stress, delivering smooth rotation and precise positioning critical for industrial processes.

This project highlighted Shenyang Weizhong’s mastery in ultra-heavy-duty applications. The pin-gear technology’s robust engagement minimized wear and backlash, ensuring long-term durability even in high-torque environments. Customized steel reinforcement and modular assembly simplified installation, while advanced control systems enabled automated operation tailored to Calgon Carbon’s workflow.

By successfully executing this challenge, Shenyang Weizhong reaffirmed its global leadership in designing turntables for mega-load scenarios—proving that innovation and rigorous testing can turn engineering boundaries into benchmarks.
