🏗️ 2 gantry cranes. 275 tons each. 2 trolleys and 4 hooks per crane.
At the Gabčíkovo Dam in Slovakia, the first of our two new gantry cranes is already assembled and in position, and these days the second one is being lifted into place. ⚡
This step is also part of the extensive modernization of the Gabčíkovo power plant.
Each crane is equipped with two trolleys:
🔹 Main trolley: 275 t main hook and 70 t auxiliary hook, with hook travel of more than 35 meters. It can move fully to the outer limit on both the right and left side.
🔹 Secondary trolley: 40 t lifting beam designed specifically for lifting the dam gates (Stop Logs), plus a 10 t auxiliary hook with an optional polyp grab for cleaning debris such as branches. Auxiliary hook travel is more than 45 meters.
Both cranes will play a key role in the replacement of the existing turbines, supporting the dismantling of the old units and the installation of the new ones.
🔧 Stay tuned, more steps of the project are coming soon!
