The Egyptian shipbuilder is one of the most celebrated in the region, with its facilities boasting the largest floating dock in the Middle East, as well as its oldest graving dock.<\/p>\n<p>The two new cranes will boost the company\u2019s in-house fleet and reduce its reliance on rental cranes. Essam Dabash, chairman of Suez Shipyard, was among a delegation from the company that traveled to the Manitowoc factory in Wilhelmshaven, Germany, to collect the cranes.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>First Grove crane purchases for Suez Shipyard Company<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Company impressed with Manitowoc\u2019s manufacturing quality and unique Product Verification Centers<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>New additions will help with maintenance duties at Egyptian facility<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>He said that while Manitowoc already has a good reputation in Egypt, seeing the company\u2019s factory\u2014and especially the Product Verification Center (PVC)\u2014gave him true confidence in the cranes it produces. The PVC provides sophisticated component-level and full-vehicle testing to verify designs and durability early in product development processes. This enables Manitowoc to launch new models faster, as well as reducing warranty and field issues.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe tour of Wilhelmshaven and the PVC was eye opening and we could understand the capabilities of Manitowoc and its determination to build first-class machines,\u201d said Essam Dabash. \u201cEfficiency is essential to our own operations so we wanted to buy cranes that have excellent customer support and to which our operators will easily adapt. With these new Grove cranes we are confident on both these points.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Suez Shipyard Company will use the GMK5130-2 around its floating dock for general maintenance duties. The 130 t capacity crane is a successor to the popular GMK5130-1 and is powered by an eight-cylinder, turbo-charged Mercedes-Benz OM 502 LA engine. It also has an improved cab over its predecessor that includes an ability to hydraulically tilt up to 20\u00b0. The Twin-Lock boom extends from 12.9 m to 60 m in six sections and its maximum tip height is 92 m when working with jib extensions.<\/p>\n<p>The company will use the flexible GMK4080-1 to support general maintenance duties and lifting tasks around the yard\u2019s various workshops. The 80 t capacity, four-axle all-terrain crane features a 290 kW Mercedes engine that provides smooth and consistent power both on- and off-road. The machine is equipped with a 51 m, six-section Twin-Lock boom that can be extended to 82 m through the addition of jib sections.<\/p>\n<p>Waleed Raouf, Manitowoc\u2019s regional sales manager for mobile and crawler cranes, was delighted to deliver the first Grove cranes to such a prestigious Middle Eastern industrial facility.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSuez Shipyard Company is a world-class operation, so we are very proud to supply the first Grove cranes to the company,\u201d he said. \u201cWe hope these are the first of many, and I\u2019m sure these two additions will bring tremendous efficiency to its maintenance operations and day-to-day activities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Based in Egypt, Suez Shipyard Company was established in 1862 and specializes in shipbuilding and repair.
