300 ST Portal Jib Crane
Kiyofumi TAKAHASHI, Noriyuki NISHIYAMA

Our company has developed a large capacity portal jib crane running on curved rails for use in a shipyard. The crane has been operational after successful installation and a field test.
The crane has the following features as well as light weight and large capacity that characterize the new types of jib cranes.

(1) This new mechanism to run on rails with a small curvature makes it possible to handle materials in every corner of a shipyard with a small number of large capacity cranes.

(2) Its prime mover specifies the most stringent pollution control requirements in the world.

We will continue to develop products that meet the stringent quality requirements of customers and also have high commercial value.
