Crane reconstruction and modernization services by COSE

COSE’s engineering team and production division provide comprehensive crane and lifting equipment reconstruction and modernization services. These works are carried out to extend the service life of equipment and improve its operational efficiency.

Reasons for reconstruction and modernization include:

• Wear and deterioration of individual equipment components;
• Expiration of the service life;
• The need for repeated replacement of assemblies and parts;
• Changes in technical or operational requirements;
• Installation of a new control system (variable frequency drives);
• Integration of video monitoring and recording systems for lifting operations;
• Installation of continuous safety monitoring devices (overload limiters).
• Installation of alarm and anti-collision systems.
• Increase of crane lifting capacity.
• Replacement of main hoisting mechanisms and power supply systems, as well as installation of remote control systems.
• Conversion of cranes for operation with interchangeable lifting attachments or for commercial and process weighing applications.

Stages of reconstruction and modernization works:

• Site visit by specialists for crane inspection.
• Technical assessment to determine the required modifications.
• Inspection of steel structures, electrical equipment and mechanical systems on site.
• Development and coordination of technical specifications defining the scope of work.
• Preparation and approval of project documentation with a detailed retrofit plan.
