Munck is able to offer equipment and systems
for rehabilitation of cranes, which may double the life time
of existing cranes.
The rehabilitation project of a crane may involve installation
of a complete new hoisting machinery, drive system or other
additional equipment representing a considerable better and
improved design compared to the existing equipment. This is
among other resulting in that the noise level is reduced, improved
and safer braking systems are achieved, improved starting and
stopping characteristics and generally higher degree of safety
is obtained. In addition, and under certain circumstances, the
entire crane can be upgraded to a higher lifting capacity. Our
skilled staff will be pleased to examine the existing crane,
and present recommendation to what work ought to be carried
out, in order to obtain maximum advantages.
Remote control.
Remote control will improve safety as operator will obtain better
control of crane and load. Several systems and designs are available.
Stepless control.
Stepless control offers accurate positioning of load, it reduces
brake wear and wear in general, and prevents "inching" of load.
This means increased safety and reduced maintenance costs.
Electronic weighing system with built into overload switch.
Display giving information of load being lifted at any time.
Automatic registering of accumulatec loads lifted. Monitoring
and registering of the degree of use of the crane (time and
load) as well as the "life time" of the crane (safe working
period = SWP), expressed in fuil-load hours.
The Munck rehabilitation program offers several advantages:
- Improved working environment
- Reduction in noise level
- Simpler operation.
- Improved safety
- Reduced risk of accidents through
better control systems
- Reduced risk of break downs
- Upgrading in accordance with rules
and regulations as laid down in: EC`s "Machinery Directive"
and "Directive for Employers
- Safety and Health".
- Recording of the crane "life time".
- Improved economy
- Giving the existing crane the same
status as a new crane.
- Cost efficient solutions, offering
an alternative to investing in a new crane, at a considerable
lower cost.
Safety equipment.
Limit switches for the long and cross travel motion, anti-collision
systems between cranes operating on the same runway, but also
between hanging load on one crane and crane operating on a lower
runway level. Further, the cranes can be equipped with equipment
which automatically restricting operation of cranes - or load
on the hook - to certain areas or zones inside the building. Munck
cranes can also be fitted with equipment preventing over-winding
wire rope as well as a rope wear registering device. Safety is
given the highest priority at Munck, and the company is therefore
working continuously to improve safety.
