The Challenge:
Finding a Better-Supported Solution for Floating Aggregate Handling

Mulzer had been using a barge-mounted material handler for its aggregate and stone handling operation but was ready to move to a new solution to improve operations. In addition to machine performance, parts availability and dependable service support were important factors in the decision. The application also required a floating crane with sufficient outreach to efficiently handle material from a barge. Mulzer therefore needed a reliable, long-reach solution backed by responsive service throughout installation and operation.

“I work with a LOT of contractors that talk a good talk but cannot perform in the field. Don and I have been very impressed with Steve Suter and his guys. They are very organized, communicate well, have a sense of urgency and know their job. It’s nice to work with a company whose service has been excellent from beginning to end.”

Kevin Fulkerson

The Solution:
A Long-Reach Floating E-Crane Backed by Reliable Service

E-Crane engineers worked closely with Mulzer to develop a configuration tailored to the company’s floating material handling operation. The solution combines the stability benefits of E-Crane’s balanced design with the reach, electric power, and service support required for dependable aggregate handling.

The solution includes:

  • A 1500 Series / 11264B PD-E E-Crane with 86.5 ft / 26.4 m reach, providing long outreach for the floating material handling operation.

  • A Young Hydraulic Clamshell Grab 5.5 yd³ with 18.2 Ustons / 16.5 Mtons lift capacity for handling aggregate and stone.

  • A barge-mounted configuration, taking advantage of E-Crane’s balanced design to minimize tipping forces on the floating platform.

  • A 300-hp / 225 kW electric motor, supported by E-Crane technicians who handled installation and commissioning at Mulzer’s facility.
