A Polish manufacturer of gearbox housings has equipped its production facility in Elbing/Masuria with several slewing jib cranes and PROFI crane systems from VETTER. Well advised by our Polish partner RYWAL-RHC, they now rely on our cranes in the production process and also for loading the parts. Two P400 PROFI crane systems and two MEISTER pillar jib cranes with a lifting capacity of 1.6 and 2 tonnes help to lift heavy parts and thus relieve the strain on employees. Waiting times for forklifts are also eliminated, so that production now runs faster.
A special feature: because an overhead crane runs above an almost 7 metre high slewing crane, the latter is equipped with a signal lamp. This enables the crane operator to recognise exactly whether the column-mounted slewing jib crane below is currently being used and then react accordingly. The assembly of the pillar jib crane is impressively documented in the picture gallery and went smoothly and quickly.
The investment has paid off for the customer - they are very satisfied with the improvement in processes and working conditions!
