High‑Performance Cranes for Offshore Operations
PALFINGER wire luffing lattice boom cranes are built on a robust slewing pedestal design and represent state‑of‑the‑art offshore lifting technology. Certified according to the latest offshore rules and regulations, they offer lifting moments ranging from 4,000 to 30,000 kNm.
Each crane is equipped with built‑in electro‑hydraulic or diesel‑hydraulic power packs, ensuring reliable performance in the most demanding conditions. These cranes are typically selected when the required outreach exceeds 40–50 meters, and they operate effectively on fixed installations, drilling rigs, jack‑ups, drillships, FPUs, and FPSOs.
Typical applications:
- Deck cranes
- Ship‑to‑Ship cranes
- Pipe handling cranes
- Boat handling cranes
