The
Crane at it's old location in Holland

Unloading
for refurbishment, back at Sheffield

| CASE
STUDY:
United Crane Services Ltd were commissioined
to dismantle two Container Cranes.

We
commenced the contract in February 2000 beginning with the
dismantling of the two containter cranes. The work was carried
out by a team of our skilled engineers under strict Dutch
safety guidelines. After four weeks, the cranes were fully
dismantled and ready for despatch to the UK.

The
cranes were shipped over to the port of Goole, UK and were
then transported to our premises in Sheffield.

Once
at our works, the cranes were fully refurbished and repaired.
All motors, gearboxes, brakes, pinions, ring gears, wheel
bushes or bearings were fully overhauled and, where
necessary, were replaced for new.

The
complete refurbishment of both cranes took 10 weeks. The
cranes were then fully cleaned and prepared for painting
and were gloss finished.

Following
this, they were ready to be transported to the customers
site.

The
meticulous work of re-assembly, erection, testing and commissioning
took another 10 weeks and the cranes were then finally handed
over to the Customer.
