On the Move!

The market for mobile cranes is on the move driven by low-rise residential, commercial, and industrial building construction activity in urban areas.

Demand for higher tonnage cranes is likely to grow

With the government鈥檚 heavy investment on infrastructure development, the mobile crane market in India is showing gradual signs of improvement, which was impacted by the pandemic.

There is upsurge in demand for medium & high-capacity cranes鈥�

The medium and heavy-duty mobile cranes market is progressing largely in India due to the growth in the construction industry of the country.

Towering opportunities

Choosing a tower crane is increasingly about safety and productivity features, as customers seek to lift more with less power, upgrade to a higher capacity economically, and safely use multiple cranes at space-constrained project sites.

Vertical Growth

Tower crane market is now on revival path, which was going through a lull period till recently. Going forward, a steady growth of real estate market could see a further momentum in tower cranes.

New mini air hoist

J D Neuhaus will be showcasing their new air hoists, the Mini series, at the 2018 CeMAT exhibition, taking place on 23-27 April in Hannover, Germany. On display in hall 24, booth A54 throughout the show will be a Mini 500 hoist, just one of the models in the new range.

Safe lifting solutions

A global leader in the manufacture of high-technology PET container production machinery, ASB International Pvt Ltd, is equipping its major export-oriented plant near Mumbai with some of Konecranes' most advanced lifting technologies to enhance its quality, safety and cost-efficiency.

Electric Throttle Actuators

The latest electric throttle actuators provide a cost effective way to control engine speed on mechanical diesel engines. Compact and easily installed, they enable greater freedom of machine design and the use of more ergonomically optimised controls.

Soaring SkyWARDS

Safe Hoists and Platforms

Spartan has introduced hoists and platforms with a greater emphasis on safety and technology. Vikram Mehta elaborates on the innovations from Spartan.

Safety in Construction Hoists

PV Ramdev elaborates on the safety features associated with construction hoists.Construction hoist, popularly known as Passenger and Material (PM) Hoist, is used for transporting men and materials during high-rise construction vertically to heights up to 821 m - Burz Al Khalifa at Dubai is currently the tallest tower in the world and there are reports that Bechtel has been awarded an ambitious contract by Saudi Arabia to design a still taller tower.

Achieving Substantial Savings in Project Costs

Thermax, headquartered in Pune, is a renowned engineering solutions provider for the energy and environment sector. The Thermax factory in Chinchwad, Pune, has several cranes from ElectroMech which are used for various applications such as loading, unloading, handling, and assembly work.

Wind Velocity Monitor

ACD?s wind velocity monitor/switch was prompted by some serious crane accidents during the erection of tall constructions, where wind condition appears to have been a major contributing factor.

Prompt aftersales service is one of the main criteria

The selection of an equipment is done based on the determination of technical suitability of equipment to suit execution methodology. In case standard equipment does not suit certain requirements, then we get it customised to fulfill the ultimate needs.

Sour CE Issue

Essentially, CE selection and procurement is a complex metrics-based decision making activity that requires active involvement of the concerned stakeholders of an organisation.

Wind Velocity Monitor

A crane operator must be given sufficient warning to decide when the crane should be put out of service because of risks due to high winds and his inability to control the load.

Safety Features in Tower Cranes

Safety in tower crane begins with the civil foundation, which should be adequate to sustain the dead weight of the crane as well as the dynamic of the load being handled, in a 360o format. Subsequently, all safety practices have to be observed during assembly and dis-assembly processes because crane comprises of large structures and many sub assemblies.

Safety in Construction Hoist

Safety is paramount in construction equipment and their users. Following the international trend of according utmost importance to safety consciousness lead by DuPont and others many reputed Indian companies like L&T, HCC, etc.

Make in India

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has launched an ambitious campaign ?Make in India?, which aims to turn the country into a global manufacturing hub. The campaign projects India as an investment destination and develop, promote and market India as a leading manufacturing destination and as a hub for design and information.

Lifting Solutions

The future trend in material handling systems will be towards lighter, higher-efficiency equipment. The power consumption, material of construction, operating noise levels and eco-friendly features of this equipment will play a big role while introducing

Towering Tall

The real estate and power sectors will show a tremendous growth in the next 2-3 years. As per projections, the tower crane requirement will increase to 30-40 per cent in these two years. Current demand growth for tower cranes is mostly from realty sector.

We have expanded our tower crane range up to 25T capacity

We strongly believe in ?Make in India,? and have our own research and development team which has given various innovative solutions for Indian customers. We supply tower cranes for real estate buildings, factories, bridges, power plants, hydro electric projects, dams, refineries, etc

Exact raw materials and mechanisms are still not available

The Procurement trend is still price-based. The contractors do not have the proper expertise for proper validation of tower cranes with respect to the quality

Maintenance, the Key to Performance

Raj Shrivastav trains his thoughts on the importance of maintenance, especially predictive maintenance of EOT cranes to derive the maximum output.More than ever before, the past decade has seen the emergence of demanding customers - customers, who expect more from their assets.

Our cranes have some of the best safety features.

Demag is probably the only company among crane manufacturers with the largest field force. Our services include installation and commissioning, warranty and post warranty services and support through parts, says Vidyakant Miraje, Business Head - Process Cranes, Demag Cranes and Components (I).
