When The Electric Grid Isn’t Reliable – Propane Is.

Propane Education and Research Council (PERC)

The DOE warns of a 100x surge in blackouts by 2030. Propane is reliable, on-site energy that keeps critical systems running when the grid can’t.

Manitowoc to Relocate Crawler-Crane Manufacture to Shady Grove, PA

Move expected to be complete in 2017 stands to generate annualized pre-tax cost savings of $25 to $30 million

The MLC300's VPCcounterweight system automatically positions the crane’s counterweight to maintain a center of gravity closer to the center of rotation, which reduces ground-bearing pressure, and therefore, ground prep.

Load Cells Monitor Weight as Cranes Operate on Temporary Shoring Columns

Forty load cells are used to calculate the total mass and center of gravity of tower cranes and lifted loads during the Century City Mall project in Los Angeles.

An early rendering shows a cross-section beneath the traveling crane. This is an initial concept and not accurate to final installation but it shows where the load cells were placed at the top of a sampling of posts on each level.

New Energy Installations Call for Advanced Lifting Equipment

With the surge in alternative energy, Manitowoc Cranes aids in the unique construction of solar and wind farms.

On this project, Mortenson is using a new wind turbine construction method that would not have been possible with previous generations of crawler cranes: It’s building the 194-ton wind turbine assemblies on the ground first, and then lifting the entire unit 300 ft. into the air before attaching it to the top of the tower. This allows assembly of the unit much faster than in the air, reducing the number of picks and the impact of wind on the project.

First-of-its-Kind Electric Luffing Jib Crane Building San Francisco Skyscraper

Building an 802-foot-tall skyscraper in San Francisco required a crane with very high lifting capacities covering a wide working radius and fast line speeds, while at the same time being as space-saving as possible

The WOLFF 700 B luffing jib tower crane — manufactured by WOLFFKRAN and owned by crane rental company Maxim Crane Works L.P. — is the first of its kind in the United States and stands for the launch of a new generation of high-performance, fully electric WOLFF luffing jib cranes on metropolitan high-rise construction projects in the U.S.
