Roll's new 3,000t gantry

Dutch international heavy lift and transport company Roll Group has completed the first two lifts with its new RMG Modular Gantry Crane system in Indonesia. Both lifts exceeded 1,000 tonnes and were carried out at a petrochemical facility in Cilegon.

A Demag CC6900-1 was used to tail-in

The gantry crane system has a maximum capacity of 3,000 tonnes and can be erected to a height of 120 metres, but for the lifts in Cilegon, the system was erected to a height of 97 metres. A 1,250 tonne Demag CC6800-1 crawler crane was also as a tail-in crane for the largest tower component which had an overall weight of 1,060 tonnes. The system is able to operate without the need for guy wires, minimising disruption on site.
