Cargotec to supply 24 electric cranes for bulker series

November 10, 2009 - Cargotec’s contract to supply electric-drive MacGregor cranes for a series of eight 16,900 dwt bulkers being built in China is a breakthrough order in the bulk carrier sector for the company’s new environmentally-friendly range of equipment

In October Cargotec won an order for bulk carrier electric cranes. The 30-tonne SWL MacGregor GLBE cranes are destined for eight 16,900 dwt bulk carriers under construction in China for Polish shipowner Polsteam (PZM). They are scheduled for installation from the end of 2010 to 2012.

“The order was secured when PZM, one of the world’s biggest dry bulk shipowners and operators, ordered eight bulk carrier vessels from Taizhou Sanfu Ship Engineeering Co., Ltd. in China,” says Paul Söderstedt, Cargotec sales manager for bulk ships. “The crane order is a significant breakthrough in the bulk carrier market as it is important recognition of Cargotec’s new environmentally-friendly GLBE electric crane, which is based on proven MacGregor designs offering improved overall efficiency and low power consumption.”

The electric cranes inherit the familiar characteristics of several generations of MacGregor wire-luffing cranes; all machinery is enclosed within the crane housing, ensuring safe operation and ease of maintenance.
