Winch CRABster – Assembly of Transformers – 1x320t
A powerful crane system supports precise and safe processes in transformer manufacturing. Specifically developed for the demanding requirements of the energy sector, the system enables the smooth movement of heavy components such as windings, core elements, and housing parts across all production areas – from core stacking to assembly and final inspection.
The centerpiece is a CRABster hoist, which impresses with high load capacity, precise positioning, and reliable operation. Thanks to its robust construction and smooth-running mechanics, the crane system is ideally suited for continuous use in industrial manufacturing environments with high safety requirements.
The integrated crane solution significantly contributes to increased efficiency and process reliability – especially in the manufacturing of high-voltage transformers, where accuracy and reliability are essential.
WINCH CRABster
Our winches from the CRABster series deliver big-time performance in the smallest of spaces and support up to 250 t loads. These compact, solid hoists ease the burden of working with heavy loads and fulfill today’s high demands on classification and hoisting speed.
