What we engineer on a hose crane

Take the whole machine or single work packages.

Boom and column

Boom and column as welded structures, sized for the hose load, wind and ship motion.

Slewing and luffing

Slewing bearing, slewing drive and luffing cylinder, with the holding loads in the working and the parked position.

Winch and hook

Hoisting winch, rope, sheaves and hook block for hose handling.

Load cases

Operating, test and stowed conditions defined with the dynamic factors of the rule set you name.

Hydraulic system

Cylinders, motors, power unit and valve sizing, with the circuit diagram and component list.

Foundation and interface

Bolting or welding to the deck, the loads passed into the ship structure and the interface drawing your yard needs.

What you receive

A package your purchasing, production and certification people can work from.

3D CAD modelNative and neutral formats, built to your CAD standard

If you need the crane built as well

Most clients want engineering only. Some want one party responsible until the machine is on the truck. You choose how far we go.

Engineering only

You receive the complete design package and build it in your own works or with your own suppliers.

Engineering with production follow-up

We stay on the project while it is built: supplier questions, drawing revisions, inspection of critical welds and dimensions, factory acceptance test.

Engineering and manufacturing

We have the equipment fabricated, assembled and tested by qualified workshops to our drawings and under our technical supervision, and deliver it to you with its documentation.
