Both cranes are equipped with long tower and have a maximum 100t lifting capacity, a radius up to 51m and maximum hoisting speeds of 120 m\/min. To improve availability and operational planning, both cranes are equipped with the Crane Data System and Remote Crane Access smart crane features.<\/p>\n
Garth Cowie, chief executive officer Napier Port, said: \u201cOur crane fleet must adapt to ever increasing handling volumes and requirements. With the two new cranes, we are improving the availability and application possibilities of our handling equipment. In addition, the high tower variant enables us to accommodate the increasing number of ships with higher container stacks on deck.\u201d<\/p>\n
Like all cranes supplied to Napier Port by TPS, the two new mobile harbour cranes will be delivered with specially adapted chassis to allow for the limited load-bearing capacity of the quay. In this case, the chassis of the cranes will receive an additional eighth axle and increased spacing of the twin axles in order to reduce the specific ground load. Rockers on the propping system distribute the load over a larger surface.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the Crane Data System gives operators access to the production and diagnostics data of all the cranes in the port that are connected to the system \u2013 via a web interface that can be operated easily from any internet-enabled computer, tablet PC or smartphone.<\/p>\n
This simplifies and accelerates fault analysis and troubleshooting, as service staff do not need to travel to New Zealand.<\/p>\n
Napier Port is the second largest export port by tonnage on the North Island of New Zealand and is already using six mobile harbour cranes from three generations, including two G HMK 6408 cranes. With the new mobile harbour cranes starting commercial operation in November 2015, Napier Port will significantly extend its handling possibilities and capacities for container handling.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
