ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Elemental sulphur stored in the form of large stratified blocks is remelted effectively and safely for subsequent handling by apparatus that includes a system of level tracks which are securely fixed to the block in a horizontal plane. A first pair of dollies are control- lably driven on tracks disposed along a single axis. These dollies carry a second pair of dollies which are similarly driven on pairs of spaced tracks that are orthogonal to the single axis. A counterbalanced melter is positionably sus- pended by a cable from a dolly controllably driven along a tensioned cable on a tracked beam that is carried by the second pair of dollies. Predetermined movement of the dollies thus permits locating the melter anywhere on or within the block for melting out portions as required and accuracy of location is improved by means of the tensioned cables which take up slack. Embodiments are described using either electrically heated bars or steam heated tubes that are arranged in the melter to provide a uniform sink rate so as to maintain melter orientation.
