Lifting Experience

In the last decade, hundreds of high-capacity cranes for use in thermal and hydro power plants have been constructed by Konecranes Americas. The risk taken when a crane is being used for the first time to lift a turbine assembly is something Konecranes understands. Konecranes cranes are purpose-built, providing lots of lifting power for the construction phase, paired with precise, slow-speed control and extreme reliability to meet planned maintenance periods for many years.

Our SM Spacemaker™ crane line was created for the sake of the power industry, incorporating a space-saving, low-headroom form that can greatly improve construction economics beneficial to power plants of the future but also has the tough-duty capability of a crane that can be used hard for facility construction. While it may be true that a crane designed to build turbines may be just a miniscule percentage of the final cost of a power plant, the design of this critical crane has been known to impact construction costs and schedules favorably across-the-board, making it an extremely valuable piece of equipment for the successful completion of the project. Konecranes lifting equipment cooperates with all relevant safety, as well as quality, regulations.
