Floating Grab Crane

NKM Noell Special Cranes has developed a new generation of Floating Grab Crane or Lemniscate cranes. The purpose of the Floating Lemniscate Grab Crane is to load and unload (bulk) vessels, midstream or between the vessel and the quay, using a 36-tonnes or 40-tonnes grab. With a reach of 43m, even the largest bulk carriers can be handled by these cranes. The Lemniscate principle allows an easy operation with an exceptionally high output when unloading ships.
Special dust-proof grabs can be used to protect the Environment when handling very fine materials like alumina or cement.
One key advantage of the floating crane is the ability to position the crane wherever it is needed, be it between quay and ship, between ship and barge, between barge and barge or between two seagoing ships.
