Germany: C Steinweg has ordered a Generation 5, G HMK 7608 Mobile Harbour Crane from Gottwald Port Technology for its multi-purpose terminal at the Port of Hamburg.
The G HMK 7608 has a maximum lifting capacity of 150 tonnes and a maximum radius of 51 metres. The new crane is expected to commence commercial operations at the end of October 2009 on Kamerunkai (Cameroon Quay) where Steinweg handles project cargoes, heavy lifts, containers, and iron and steel.
Both mobile harbour cranes can, in the future, work in tandem lift operations, allowing them to handle very heavy loads weighing up to 300 tonnes.
