On September 3, at the site of the Yulong Island refining and chemical integration project, which is considered Shandong Province’s ’No. 1 Project’, in Longkou, Shandong Province, the world’s most powerful crane – a Sany 4500-ton crawler crane – successfully completed the lifting of the upward-type protection reactor for an oil residue hydrogenation unit with a capacity of 2.6 million tons per year. The upward-type shielding reactor lifted this time is 32.7 meters tall, 5.6 meters in diameter, and weighs over 1,400 tons. Ma Chenfei, the person in charge of lifting operations at Shandong Gulf, explained that lifting and installing such a massive structure in one go is incredibly difficult. To ensure safety and efficiency, Sany Heavy Industry, Shandong Gulf Lifting, and the project owner conducted numerous discussions and ultimately decided to adopt a construction method that involves using Sany’s 4500-ton and 1000-ton cranes for lifting and transporting the components.
Modern lifting equipment is also very powerful: lol
On the morning of October 28, 2021, the world’s largest tonnage crawler crane – the Sany SCC98000TM crawler crane – had its delivery ceremony held in Huzhou. The Sany SCC98000TM crawler crane has a maximum lifting torque of over 98,000 tons/meter, and a maximum lifting capacity of 4,500 tons – which is equivalent to being able to lift more than 3,000 cars at once. Both of these key specifications exceed those of all other similar products in the world today.
