Mobile harbour cranes
28 May 2013
Terex Port Solutions has delivered and commissioned a Terex Gottwald HMK 170 E Mobile Harbour Crane to St. Peter Port Harbour in Guernsey.
Another HMK 170 E crane is scheduled for delivery during November 2013. The cranes will handle 50,000 t of container freight per year.
The 63 t configuration Terex Gottwald HMK 170 E Mobile Harbour Cranes have a radius of 38 m and feature self-powered diesel generators. For increased efficiency and to avoid exhaust emissions within the port, the cranes are hooked up to 11 kV electrical shore supply power connections.
Terex Port Solutions was also responsible for the demolition of a quayside portal crane and a 32 t quayside scotch derrick crane, as well as civil reinstatement.
