Konecranes builds more overhead cranes for the power generation industry than any other company, worldwide.
Our SM Spacemaker line of cranes was designed for the power industry, combining the tough-duty capability of a crane that can be used hard for facility construction with a low-headroom, space-saving design that can significantly improve construction economics for new power plants. Although a turbine building crane may be only a small percentage of the overall cost of a power plant, design of this critical crane can favorably impact overall construction costs and schedules, making it an extremely valuable piece of equipment for the success of the project.
Konecranes America has built more than 160 high capacity cranes for Hydro and Thermal power plants over the last 10 years, with global distribution. We understand the stakes when a crane is used to lift a turbine assembly for the first time. Our purpose-built cranes offer plenty of lifting power for the construction phase, along with precise, slow-speed control and long-term reliability to meet scheduled maintenance intervals for years to come.
Konecranes’ crane designs comply with all relevant quality and safety regulations. Our dedicated project managers support your job schedule from inception through installation, load-testing and startup. After the sale, Konecranes’ global maintenance network stands ready to assist you at any time, anywhere in the world.
