On April 27th, with pleasant weather, the 2000 ton bridge deck crane designed by CCCC Wugang Institute and manufactured by Jiangsu PG Slot Crane Machinery was officially launched and will soon be sent to the construction site of the A3 section of the Changtai Yangtze River Bridge. It will be used for the lifting construction of the main bridge standard section steel truss. Guo Qiang, Deputy General Manager of CCCC Wugang Institute, Wang Hui from CCCC Changtai Bridge Project Department, Gu Yucheng, Executive Deputy General Manager of Jiangsu Grete Crane Machinery Co., Ltd., and Shi Bing, Project Production Manager, attended the product offline ceremony.

The 2000 ton bridge deck crane project of CCCC Second Harbor Engineering Co., Ltd. started production in November 2022. Considering the tight schedule and heavy tasks of the project, the project production manager Shi Bing carefully arranged the construction node plan, tracked the implementation of the plan in real time, and actively coordinated production process issues. With the full cooperation of all members of the project team and strong support from company leaders, the prefabricated components of the project were shipped to the Grate Large Cargo Terminal on March 16, 2023, and entered the pre assembly process for the entire machine. Grate people have shown courage and responsibility, working overtime to catch up with the schedule, working together to overcome difficulties, and the project has progressed in an orderly manner. They have successfully completed the final assembly task within the expected time and fully cooperated with the general contractor in the installation and commissioning of the electrical and hydraulic systems.
Jiangsu PG Slot Crane Machinery, as a professional manufacturer deeply engaged in the lifting industry for nearly 20 years, continues to repay trust with hard work and deepen cooperation with trust. This 2000 ton bridge deck crane is the first cooperation between Grate Crane Machinery and CCCC Wugang Institute. It is also the sixth ultra large bridge deck crane produced by Jiangsu Grate after the four 1800 ton bridge deck cranes for the Shanghai Nantong Bridge project and the 1800 ton bridge deck crane for the Chaoma Bridge project.

On April 27th, the 2000 ton bridge deck crane successfully completed the longitudinal movement of the entire machine and the lifting of the track at Gret Port, marking the official offline of the equipment and meeting the conditions for shipment. The pre assembly and empty vehicle debugging in the factory also laid the foundation for the early use of the equipment after it arrived at the site. Subsequently, the equipment will be disassembled into individual trusses, loaded onto ships using a 600 ton gantry crane, and shipped to Changtai Bridge. We look forward to the equipment being installed and put into hoisting construction as soon as possible, to assist in the construction of the Changtai Bridge project.
