Bespoke to fit
Overhead process cranes from Street Crane Company have been installed to meet the unique process requirements at specialist hose producer, Dunlop Oil & Marine. The cranes have been specially engineered to fit the existing structure which presented a limited height envelope.
In the main production area Street have provided two triple-girder cranes of 9.6 tonnes, with a 3.2 tonne hoist on each beam to support the long hose lengths. These cranes may be operated singly or electronically synchronised to move together when double length hoses are produced.
In a second workshop, where heavy duty and higher diameter hoses of shorter length are produced, a double girder crane of 15 tonnes safe working load is installed.
Street Crane’s ZX hoist technology is used throughout. The ZX hoist is built for endurance and low life-time cost of ownership in the world’s most advanced hoist manufacturing facility.
