Customised cable crane systems for challenging terrain

Page last modified
April 11 2024

Cable crane systems consist of one or two fixed track ropes, towers, a hauling rope, a winch and a crane unit. This is how cable crane systems work: The crane unit moves on the track rope by releasing or alternatively by tightening the hauling rope with the winch installed at the top or valley station. The crane unit can lift the loads and transport them to any desired position along the track of the system. It is equipped with its own diesel engine and can be easily controlled by the personnel via remote control. The system can be customised for any needs of the customer.

Specification
Specification Title Specification Description
Application Conditions
Usable in up to 70° steep terrain under any climatic conditions - temperature ranges of -30°C to +50°C.
Areas of Application
Oil and Gas | Bridge Construction | Dam Construction | Mountain Construction Sites | Hydro Power
