SENNEBOGEN EQ3 Balancer for Weserport GmbH: Schlüter für Baumaschinen supports the move towards more efficient cargo handling
Bremen. Weserport GmbH is investing in impressive material-handling technology from SENNEBOGEN, thereby sending a strong signal about the future of port operations. At Terminal 4 in Bremen, a new SENNEBOGEN EQ3 Balancer has replaced a mobile harbour crane dating from 1984. The gigantic machine impresses with its size and power and is a real eye-catcher in the port. The machine was assembled during the first two weeks of September. In future, it will be used for handling mineral raw materials, timber and bales of waste. An extraordinary project that demonstrates how modern SENNEBOGEN technology is making port operations fit for the future!
Innovative technology for efficient material handling
The SENNEBOGEN EQ3 Balancer is characterised in particular by its special counterweight system. The so-called ‘balancer’ principle supports the movement of the boom, thereby reducing the energy required. In conjunction with the electric drive, the machine enables energy-efficient and emission-free operation on site.
“With the SENNEBOGEN EQ3 Balancer, Weserport is gaining a high-performance solution that combines cost-effectiveness with sustainability. In port handling in particular, it is crucial to tailor machines optimally to the respective requirements. The balancer principle and the electric drive provide excellent conditions for this,” explains Michael Lieckefett, who is responsible for SENNEBOGEN at Schlüter Baumaschinen GmbH.
In addition to its energy-efficient operation, the EQ3 Balancer stands out thanks to its large working radius and low-maintenance design. The resulting benefits can help to reduce operating costs and support the machine’s availability in day-to-day use.
Shaping the future of port handling together
By modernising its machinery, Weserport GmbH is laying the foundations for modern and efficient handling processes. At the same time, staff benefit from state-of-the-art technology, whilst the electric drive makes a significant contribution to reducing local emissions.
For Schlüter Baumaschinen GmbH, this project exemplifies its close collaboration with customers and manufacturers. The aim is not only to provide the right machine, but also to support customers in the long term with high-performance technology and personalised advice as they tackle their operational challenges.
Schlüter for Construction Machinery is delighted to be supporting Weserport GmbH in this modernisation project and wishes the team in Bremen every success with the new EQ3 Balancer from SENNEBOGEN.
