Lower 1500B Series E-Crane® fully and successfully assembled outside workshop

In merely a day’s time the complete lower was pre-assembled. All crane parts were carefully transported out of our workshops, and safely and precisely pre-assembled in front of the E-Crane Worldwide headquarters in Adegem, Belgium.

Since then, our E-Crane® engineers have been finishing, fine tuning and testing the lower and its function in detail so everything will be in excellent working order in time for the customer’s visit later this month.

Meanwhile, the upper structure is being assembled in the workshop, and more finetuning and testing will follow, in order to get everything 100% in accordance with our client’s wishes and the industry’s highest standards.
