Roll Group is thrilled to announce its recent investment in a large Gantry system. The system is currently in the fabrication stage and is set to be fully operational by mid-year. This is an important milestone for Roll Group, as the company has a wealth of experience with smaller gantry systems. The investment in this larger system is a logical next step for the company, allowing them to better serve clients with their heavy lifting challenges and to further raise the bar in terms of Roll Group’s lifting capacity.
The Gantry system is composed of various components that can be configured in different ways, providing great flexibility and adaptability. With its robust and versatile design, the system’s height, width, capacity, and shape can be easily adjusted to match the specific requirements of each project. This ensures that the final construction will be tailored to suit the unique needs of each client’s project.
In line with Roll Group’s high safety and quality standards, the Gantry system will be fully Lloyds certified in design, fabrication, and testing. This certification provides further assurance to clients that Roll Group is committed to delivering exceptional results in a safe and reliable manner.
Roll Group’s CEO, Mr. Peter Rondhuis, explains, “With this gantry system we can further grow in the heavy lift industry as this system will allow us to enter the market of the bigger land-based projects as the gantries are often combined with crane and SPMT scopes. Besides this, Roll Group can offer a full factory-to-foundation solution by combining our fleet of heavy transport vessels, SPMTs, cranes and gantry systems. This reduces overall risks for our clients and provides a single point of contact for the whole operation.”
The system can be used in various markets. For its initial project in the Petrochemical industry, it can be used for the installation of tall reactors, over 100m in length, and over 2000 Tonnes heavy without the use of external guywires. In the renewable market, the system can be of service for the integration of jackets or the load out of offshore wind floaters. Further, the system is ideal for the installation of goliath cranes, as the temporary support structure for modules or bridges during transport or weighing, as the heavy support for weighing offshore modules, and much more.
