For a United States Navy-owned ballistics facility, top-security is always a consideration—even when it comes to overhead cranes. “We perform several jobs there throughout the year, but we have limited access to areas within in the facility,” said Joe Henry, branch manager at Konecranes. “For example, in the new building, we put a small Konecranes CXT overhead crane, but we do not have access to know the crane’s exact application.”
In the wooded mountains of the Northeastern United States, a carbonless paper mill plant works with breakneck speed. With each overhead crane integral to the entire operation’s success, the cranes must be kept in pristine condition. However, the mill’s remote location made it difficult for any crane service company to arrive on site in less than three hours.
