When Should Crane Modernisation Be Considered?

Review recurring faults, parts availability, control precision, electrification and safety functions through a lifecycle approach.

Modernisation indicators

Recurring downtime, obsolete controls, scarce parts, harsh starts and stops, inadequate limits and poor maintenance access justify review.

• Recurring faults
• Parts availability
• Control precision
• Maintenance access

How scope is defined

Motor, brake, gearbox, panel, contactors, inverter, radio control, limits, power feed, wheels and runway are assessed separately.

• Mechanical condition
• Electrical panel
• Controls and inverter
• Electrification system
