Shipyard Transport & Lifting

Enhancing Efficiency in Shipbuilding and Maintenance

The shipbuilding and repair industry relies heavily on efficient material handling and lifting operations. From assembling ship components to transporting massive hull structures, shipyards require specialized lifting solutions to handle heavy loads with precision and safety.

As global demand for larger and more advanced vessels increases, shipyards must adopt innovative lifting technologies to enhance productivity, reduce operational costs, and maintain a competitive edge.

Employ mobile lifting equipment (such as rubber-tired gantry cranes) for flexible transportation of ship components, supporting efficient repair and upgrade operations.

Utilize heavy-duty gantry cranes and overhead cranes for precise lifting and assembly of large hull structures, improving shipbuilding efficiency and accuracy.

Use rail-mounted gantry cranes (RMG) and quay cranes to efficiently load, unload, and transfer ship parts and large equipment, optimizing port logistics.
