These gentle giants are specifically designed to lift one of the largest and most expensive pieces of equipment in a generating station.

American Crane<\/a>\u2019s overhead equipment is used in a wide variety of industrial applications, however cranes designed to lift power turbines are a special breed. Power turbines are both extremely heavy and highly balanced, leading to what may seem like conflicting requirements in large load lifting\u2014high capacity and high positioning accuracy.<\/p>\n

Back in September, American Crane<\/a>\u2019s turbine cranes were featured in an article on Engineering.com<\/a>. The article included quotes from one of American Crane\u2019s sales engineers, explaining the custom features of these powerful machines, as well as how they are installed, operated and maintained.<\/p>\n
