Aanleg Maasvlakte 2 op schema

2010-05-20

De Tweede Maasvlakte krijgt steeds meer vorm. Meer dan de helft van de 240 miljoen m3 zand die nodig is, ligt op z’n plek. Bekijk de video met o.a. de blockbuster op www.ntvideo.nl

Blockbuster growing larger and larger (The Netherlands)

2010-05-09

The largest stones to become part of the future hard seawall will be 40-ton concrete blocks. The Blockbuster will soon be positioning the blocks in the sea at a distance of some 50 m off the shore. They will serve as a breakwater for the stony dune. This will ensure that the Maasvlakte 2 seawall can weather the heaviest storms – ones that occur once every 10,000 years. Recycled Blocks The approximately 20,000 concrete blocks that are required for this operation will come from the existing block dam that protects Maasvlakte 1. A floating crane (backhoe) is currently picking up the blocks...

Finding balance despite the downturn

2010-01-07

Ray dikes reports on how the world’s leading makers of balanced cranes appear to have weathered the worst of the economic downturn and are talking of recovery in 2010 and 2011. Recovery might be too strong a word as some have already found new strenght amid the stress and strains of a world in an economic tailspin. But, at least one has shrugged off bankruptcy rumours caused by the scrap market collapse and is trying to bounce back. Balanced cranes get their name from a design which features a parallelogram style boom configuration that allows the machine to be in near perfect balance...

Grappling with a choice of grab unloaders

2009-02-09

All grab-type ship unloading systems have differing strenghts and weaknesses. Dockside grab discharge of dry bulk cargo can either be carried out by high-capacity, purpose-built grab gantry unloaders or by lower-capacity (generally), but more versatile slewing cranes, whether fixed, rail-mounted, rubber-tyred or pontoon-mounted. Mobile harbour cranes have long played an important role in mainstream bulk handling. For smaller ships and barges, the “new generation” of mobile (or rail-mounted) hydraulic unloaders, featuring a grabber device attached via a flexible link directly...

The slow down hasn’t brought layoffs to either of the big two — the Seram Group of France and E-Crane Worldwide of Belgium — but there are signs of furrowed and worried brows just the same. Luckily equilibrium or balanced...

E-Crane Offers Alternative to Offloading Bulk Materials

2008-12-18

In small ports around the world, the ever increasing need to offload bulk materials such as coal and limestone at rates from 300 to 2,000 tons (272 to 1,814 t) per hour and do it as economically as possible calls for modern equipment with greater efficiency than can be provided by many of the older cranes still in operation today. Most of these older cranes are at or near the end of their life cycle; cable replacement is a never ending ordeal; and highly skilled operators are required. Modern cable cranes have hydraulic winches, but are still cable operated. This means there is still cable...

Going GREEN – all a matter of balance?

2008-02-14

With ports the world over going green in a variety of ways, a 34-year-old French idea has brought balance and savings to many with the added advantage of being good for the planet. Ray Dykes explains… The concept of a balanced crane was patented in 1973 by the Seram Group of Perpignan, France, and has been often copied since. Seram remains the world’s largest maker of equilibrium cranes, as they are known, and has around 610 of the revolutionary machines working inland river ports and small ocean ports on every continent.An equilibrium crane has huge advantages when it comes to going...

E-Cranes prove efficient in bulk material handling

2007-08-09

Over 50% of the Electric Energy consumed in the USA is generated by fossil fuel (coal) burning power plants and this is not going to change in the near future. Utility companies burning fossil fuels require a carefully blended mix of coal which is sourced from US mines as well as Latin American and international suppliers to minimize fuel expenses and in order to meet increasingly stringent emission regulations. Now these fossil fuel burning power plants also need to offload limestone for their flue gas desulphurization systems to comply with emission regulations. As most US power...

E-Crane® benefits from willingness to replace cable cranes with equilibrium cranes

2004-10-08

E-Crane®, of West Virginia, already claims to be benefiting from customer willingness to replace cable cranes with equilibrium cranes, as the latter’s greater flexibility and greater ability to clear out barges combined with adjustable downforce and greater grab position accuracy pay off. Now, the company says, it is bringing new zeal to optimal operations of the equilibrium cranes it markets. Its automatic “boom float”, for example, has been developed to operate during the grab closing phase so that the boom is automatically allowed to move up slightly to achieve better...
