Konecranes serves the power industry with material handling equipment for every type of power plant. From a traditional coal power plant to a massive hydro power plant or a remote wind farm, we have the cranes and service to suit your needs.
A host of Smart Features can be added to your overhead crane to give you more control over material handling in your production process.
Sway Control is designed to automatically limit load swing by controlling the bridge and trolley acceleration and deceleration rates.
Shock Load Prevention allows for smooth load control. If an attempt is made to pick up a load too abruptly, hoisting speed is automatically and immediately adjusted.
Protected Areas are no-go areas, which the crane operator cannot override or adjust.
“This proves that Konecranes is able to complete any assignment, even the most difficult ones, quickly, flexibly and very reliably.”
Gary Schwarz, Site Manager, Turbine Hall
Grosskraftwerk Mannheim AG (GKM) operates the largest energy generation site in the German federal state of Baden-Württemberg. The Block 9 coal-fired power station – one of the most efficient in the world – went on stream in 2015.
