07.12.2016
PALFINGER MARINE is proud to announce the delivery of a package, including marine crane and davit, to Austal Ltd. for a high-speed crew transfer vessel. The 57.6-metre, all-aluminium catamaran was designed by Incat Crowther and constructed by Austal’s shipyard in the Philippines.
A PK 6500 M electro-hydraulic foldable knuckle boom crane, with a safe working load (SWL) of 880 kg at 5.6 m outreach, has been commissioned in October by PALFINGER MARINE service engineers. The crane has a 1300 kg hydraulic winch installed on the outer boom and safety devices according to the European directive of general machinery. The PK 6500 M is mounted on the 200 sqm deck, allowing up to 100 tonnes of cargo to be transported.
In addition, the vessel also has Search and Rescue capability (SAR), with an on-board Fast Rescue Craft (FRC) available for rapid deployment and a chemical dispersant adding oil-spill ‘first response’ capability. PALFINGER MARINE delivered a hydraulic pivoting A-frame davit, type PRHE, with a SWL of 30kN (3060 kg).
