Pillar
Engineered square pillar for high rigidity and low deadweight. User friendly position of emergency switch
Pillar head
Hammerhead design for widest possible slewing angle. Robot welding for maximum precision. Consistently high standard of quality.
Pillar connection
A) Fixing the column with anchor bolts in the existing concrete floor: assembly of the anchor plate with chemical anchors, subsequent secure screwing to the pillar base of the crane. Highly suited also for relatively thin concrete floors that have a thickness of ≥ 200 mm.
B) Anchors are used to fix pillars to the foundations. Exact alignment of the anchors with a template.
