Why Are Cathode Lift Bales Critical in Copper Electrowinning Plants?
In copper electrowinning (EW) operations, Cathode Lift Bales—also called Cathode Bailers—are essential yet often overlooked components. These rugged lifting tools move thousands of cathodes daily between stripping machines, washing stations, and storage racks. Despite their simple appearance, a poorly designed lift bale can lead to costly production delays, equipment damage, or even operator injuries. At […]
What Should Copper Plants Consider When Selecting and Purchasing a Cathode Stripping Machine?
In modern copper electrowinning (EW) plants, cathode stripping machines are essential for efficiently separating deposited copper from stainless steel cathodes. With increasing automation and capacity demands, choosing the right stripping system directly affects productivity, labor efficiency, and product quality. This article outlines the key technical and operational factors that copper plants should evaluate before purchasing […]
