Reliable, Long-Term Energy Solutions for STS Cranes
Whether it's a monobeam, double trolley, gooseneck, shuttle boom, or lattice girder crane, efficient ship-to-shore
operations rely on high-performance energy supply systems.
These large-scale cranes demand maximum reliability and functionality,
even under extreme mechanical stress, harsh weather, and corrosive environments.
To ensure uninterrupted loading and unloading processes, operators must have complete confidence in both the energy chains and cables.
That’s why we offer a comprehensive range of durable energy chain systems, combined with smart sensor technology for real-time
condition monitoring and predictive maintenance — helping our customers maintain peak performance and avoid costly downtime.
Versatile Installation Options for Energy Chains on STS Cranes
Ready for any scenario. Depending on the specific application and crane design, energy chain systems can be
installed in a variety of configurations to suit operational needs.
While mounting on top of the crane girder is the standard approach, side-mounted installations offer
enhanced protection against strong crosswinds.
Alternatively, positioning the energy chain underneath the girder provides maximum shielding from snow, rain, and ice.
Whatever the environmental or structural requirements, we offer tailored energy chain solutions and mounting options to
ensure optimal performance and durability in every condition.
