Biggest Turkish gantry crane works with H&K motor cable reel

State-of-the-art power supply technology by Hartmann & Koenig enables a

smooth operation of Turkey’s biggest gantry crane at Tersan Shipyard Yalova new

building premises. Our motor cable reel provides the giant construction with

eco-friendly, mobile power to perform its demanding handling tasks over travel

distances of about 525 m within the port area. The system is fitted with a

precisely adjustable frequency drive for the elimination of peak forces on the

cable in highly dynamic processes.

The new crane is constructed by Tersan Shipyard within a 6 months period.

Although this new crane is based on the same design of Tersan’s first gantry

crane which is capable of lifting 550 tons, the lifting capacity of this second

crane is 400 tons SWL (2×200 tons) because it’s operating a significant wider

range, the distance between the legs are about 80 meters.
