Port of Kalundborg has ordered an eco-efficient Model 7 Konecranes Gottwald Mobile Harbor Crane to manage the expected container and general cargo demand at its newly developed New West Port.
[s2If is_user_logged_in()]The Danish port placed the order as it prepares to start operations in the upcoming spring. The crane will be operated by APM Terminals in agreement with AP Moller Maersk, which recently added Kalundborg to their port calls.
“We’re preparing our new berths to start operations, and need a newer crane with more capacity and height. Our experience with Konecranes has been excellent, and we’re pleased they can provide this eco-efficient crane quickly so operations can start smoothly,” said Bent Rasmussen, managing director of the Port of Kalundborg.
The order, booked in Q1 2021, underscores Konecranes’ commitment to offer customers and industries efficient, sustainable and safe operations, said a company statement.
“This crane will give Kalundborg’s clients the flexibility to handle a wider range of loads and the productivity and reliability needed to meet their deadlines,” commented Hans-Juergen Schneider, regional sales manager for Konecranes Port Solutions.
The crane joins an older Konecranes Gottwald Model 6 currently on site and will be delivered in May 2021.
