In St. Petersburg, Russia, our client faced difficulties moving heavy precast concrete slabs as traditional equipment limited efficiency and flexibility. To solve this, we delivered a customized single beam rubber tyred gantry crane – 12.5-ton capacity, 12-meter span, and 6-meter lifting height – that greatly improved mobility, safety, and productivity.
The Challenge: Limited Mobility with Traditional Equipment
In St. Petersburg, our client faced a recurring problem: moving heavy precast concrete slabs efficiently. Their existing lifting equipment was largely fixed, making it difficult to reach different work areas. This lack of mobility slowed operations, reduced productivity, and increased safety risks, highlighting the need for a more flexible solution.
The Solution: Mobile Single Beam RTG Crane
To address this, we provided a customized single beam rubber tyred gantry crane that combined lifting power with unmatched flexibility:
- Lifting Capacity: 12.5 tons
- Span: 12 meters
- Lifting Height: 6 meters
- Mobility: Rubber tyres allow free movement across the yard, eliminating the need for fixed rails
- Safety & Control: Remote control and safety systems enable precise and safe handling of heavy slabs
This crane was designed not only to lift slabs but also to adapt quickly to changing site needs, providing the freedom to operate across multiple areas without constraints.
The Impact: Flexible, Efficient, and Safe Operations
With the new RTG crane, the client experienced immediate improvements:
- Enhanced Flexibility: The rubber tyred crane could easily move between different zones, supporting various tasks without repositioning other equipment.
- Improved Efficiency: Faster slab handling reduced downtime and optimized production flow.
- Safer Handling: Operators could maneuver heavy slabs with precision, minimizing risks.
As the client said:
“This crane has really changed the way we work. It moves around easily, speeds up our workflow, and makes handling slabs a lot safer. We can get more done without any hassle.”
Conclusion: Flexibility That Drives Productivity
This project demonstrates how our rubber tyred gantry crane can enhance precast concrete operations. With their mobility, efficient lifting capacity, and adaptable design, our RTG cranes can handle precast concrete elements safely and precisely across various work areas, streamline workflows, and reduce operational downtime.
