Wind power projects look clean once the turbines are running, but the construction phase is a different story. Heavy components still have to be moved and positioned on the factory floor, at storage yards, and at remote wind farm sites. Tower sections, nacelles, blades, generators, and other large components all need controlled lifting. A RTG…

It presents a challenge to the conventional means of handling machinery. The rigid dimensions and limited steerability can make it hard to navigate tight spaces. There will be an increased chance of collision, unstable load and even overturning when machinery is forced to operate where it should not. Custom straddle carrier proves to be the…

When people hear Straddle Carrier, they often think of container terminals. That makes sense. Container straddle carriers are widely used in ports, intermodal terminals, logistics yards, and transfer stations. They can pick up, move, and stack containers with one machine. But the basic idea of a Straddle Carrier goes much further than containers. At its…

An 8 ton spider crane has to do more than lift a heavy load. In many real projects, the difficult part is getting the crane into position, working around existing structures, and keeping everything under control in a tight space. That is exactly where SEVENCRANE focused its latest product upgrade. After reviewing feedback from customers…

The power generation industry is experiencing rapid development nowadays. Bigger generation units, new renewable energy projects, and stricter requirements to power plant maintenance give rise to many new material handling challenges. Our company, SEVENCRANE, develops overhead crane systems for different power generation applications, ranging from thermal power plants to hydropower stations and wind turbine manufacturing…

When a bridge crane is lifting heavy loads, the operator must be clear about one thing. Is the load within the crane’s rated load range? At this point, the load limiter (also known as an overload limiter or rated load limiter) becomes extremely important. Compared to the large body of the crane, this device is…

One can view a bridge crane as a whole unit from a factory floor. In fact,there are several systems inside the device and each performs certainfunctions. The runway provides support, the bridge crosses aworkshop, the trolley runs with a hoist, and the lifting mechanismoperates with a load. The knowledge of the described structures helps to…
