Dellner Dampers to supply parts for cranes built by ZPMC

SWEDISH company Dellner Dampers has won a contract to supply protective, energy absorbing buffers for three ship-to-shore cranes manufactured by Shanghai-based ZPMC. The cranes will be installed at the Freeport Container Port in Grand Bahama that is undergoing an expansion.

The cranes will be fitted with Dellner HYBUFF G120-500F hydraulic buffers which, having been custom-built in Sweden to ZPMC's exact specifications, deliver a 500mm stroke and damping force of up to 700 kN.



Each crane will be fitted with eight buffers (shock absorbers) - one at each corner of the trolley and one at each corner of the gantry base - to absorb energy and protect the crane from damage in the event of collision.



Dellner Dampers has also been chosen to supply dampers for four crane spreaders that industry leader Bromma is providing for the Freeport expansion.



Dellner Dampers sales manager Mikael Sund said: "We are delighted to be working with ZPMC and Bromma on the prestigious Freeport expansion project. Dellner Dampers has a focus on innovation that stretches back more than 50 years, so our customers can be assured of high quality products that are rigorously tested and precision engineered for long-lasting performance."
