Components of portal crane Ibis onto a ship bound for India were loaded by specialists of Sea Port of Saint-Petersburg (a company of Port One Group) and SMM Group. Assembling, commissioning tests and delivery is to be conducted by SMM team which has already left for Idia. The delivery is scheduled for the second quarter of 2023.
The new model of a portal crane was designed and produced by SMM with respect of the customer’s requirements and under the control of the International Certification Agency. Portal crane Ibis intended for assembling of sections and equipment in the course of shipbuilding as well as for moving break-bulk cargo.
SMM Group is one of Russia’s leading manufacturers of heavy-duty hoisting equipment for ports, transport terminals, shipyards and industrial enterprises.
