    Technocrane Inc is a popular crane distributor located in North America. Few months ago they introduced the marine cranes they manufactured to the market. These marine cranes are believed to be one of the best on the market. Marine is a severe environment; normal inland cranes can not do the job in a vessel. Every offshore operator wants to have a durable and reliable crane which can withstand the harsh marine environment. Technocrane understands the needs; and their two latest crane models are specifically designed for marine use.

    A low-quality crane, after being used for some time on the marine, can be damaged by the saltwater, especially if that crane is made of low-quality metal. If you use cranes which are not specifically designed for marine use, you are wasting your time and effort since those cranes will damage due to the saltwater. Some offshore operators may say that they will try not to submerge their crane equipment. They believe by not doing this, their cranes would be safe. However, the fact is, although your crane is always kept dry, it still faces the risk of being corrosive due to the high moisture content in the air of the marine environment. Cranes without stainless-steel or corrosion resistant paint components are easily damaged under this kind of working environment.

    Some marine operators attempt to fit and adapt a standard truck crane for use in marine applications. While these cranes can be of high quality and may be excellent for inland use, they do not have sufficient corrosion protection to make them suitable for marine use. The standard paint and chroming that is used on various components of a truck mounted crane will quickly deteriorate, making the crane vulnerable to corrosion. In addition, marine cranes are designed to be mounted above a surface or deck, and the location of control valves and hydraulic hoses are arranged to accommodate above deck mounting. While some components of a standard truck crane can be relocated to accommodate above deck mounting, doing so is not optimal.

    Technocrane Inc belongs to the rare crane manufacturers who designed specific cranes for marine use. The marine cranes by Technocrane are made of high quality, corrosion resistant material so they will not be damaged by the moisture. What's more, the two marine crane models are both very durable. Marine cranes are normally used even when the seagoing vessels are moving; so every of their components have to be strong enough to withstand the severe working stresses. Technocrane marine cranes come with dual rack and pinion slewing systems to help them function well even on unstable platform.

    Technocrane Inc. has been a supplier of cranes to the North American marine industry since 1990, supplying cranes to both the Canadian Coast Guard and the Department of Fisheries and Oceans. Customers in both the United States and Canada use Technocrane marine cranes for both private and commercial fishing, cargo handling and towing operations.
