Design Engineering

Our team of design engineers and drafts people uses the latest computer software packages such as AutoCAD Spacegass and Solidworks to generate advanced 3D modelling in order to see how the equipment will look and behave in service.

All cranes and winches are designed to Australian standards and once a complete analysis has been completed, calculations then sent for third part verification.

Supercrane’s office has high speed broadband internet connection that allows electric transfer of drawings and 3D models, along with all documents to be sent online and around the world.
Machining

Supercrane skilled staff with many years experience machine all parts in house which allows us to reduce the lead time and ensure that project are completed on time.

Supercrane have the capabilities to produce precision machined components and close tolerance parts, some of the machinery capabilities include gear cutting, crane wheels and axels, bearing housings, sheaves and winches drum grooving.
Fabrication

Supercranes Fabrication work is to the highest standard by skilled/approved boilermakers, fabricators and mechanical filters. All our fabrication work goes through either a 100% visual examination by in house welding supervisor or non-destructive testing by a NATA approved inspector. Material certificates/trace ability and non-destructive testing records are recorded through document control and delivered to the client.

Main in house Fabrication capabilities:

  • Crane fabrication
  • Winch fabrication and shuttle winch
  • Hoist and trolley fabrication
  • Platforms, ladders and staircases
  • Handrails
  • Runway design and fabrication
  • Goods lift fabrication
