The reconstruction expanded the crane’s technological purpose by adapting it for handling mineral fertilizers in big bags for loading into railway cars.
Within the scope of the technical assignment, a comprehensive reconstruction of the gantry crane was carried out, including the following works:
- The span was shortened in accordance with the design requirements.
- The hoisting mechanism was modernized by replacing the grab configuration with a general-purpose lifting system for raising and lowering loads.
- A new hook block assembly was designed and installed, specifically adapted to the crane’s structural features.
- An operator cabin was designed and installed, equipped with all necessary access and control systems.
- The rope and sheave system was optimized, improving the performance of the hoisting mechanism and trolley travel system.
