Pulp and Paper: One of the Most Challenging Crane Maintenance Environments in the World




     

140 F heat, constant steam encasement, near capacity loads! These are just a few of the evils mill cranes face every day. You can't go down, much less stay down. That is why mills across the country call the Hoist and Crane Service Group. 24 hours a day 365 days a year, crane technicians are available whatever the problem!

"House Cranes" and their runways have to be dealt with on the run. No problem. The Hoist and Crane Service Group has completed more "House Crane" work over running paper machines, than anybody. The result, no lost production!

 "Reel Cranes" come with their own unique problems. All repairs and upgrades must be packaged to allow for very tight down time windows. When done professionally,  faster outages with a  faster return to production!

   

FATIGUE MANAGEMENT

Crane Structures, Runway Assemblies, Shafting etc. have expected lives. The proper management of fatigue as a part of your maintenance program will head off catastrophic failure.

   

SITE MAINTENANCE

Hoist and Crane Service Group is in the crane business, Mills are in the paper making business. Ever shrinking staffs require assigning assets to  your core  needs.  Hoist and Crane can thru their SYM-PAC operating system, handle all material handling equipment in the mill, freeing in-house personnel to concentrate on the paper making equipment.

   

DATA MANAGEMENT

Utilizing Hoist and Crane's MOD 35 and PVM maintenance systems, the data generated by your inspection, fatigue and maintenance programs is managed allowing the mill to focus on the most critical issues on the most critical cranes. Essential in today's world of shrinking in-house maintenance staffs and budgets.
