Crawlers perform on Ice Mountain

摘要

Lomma Crane & Rigging dispatched two crawlers, a Manitowoc 18000 and a Manitowoc 2250, to assist with wind turbine erection at Sandy Ridge Wind Farm in Tyrone, PA. The cranes erected 25 Gamesa G87 wind turbines at the wind farm that tower up to 330 feet. While erecting wind turbines is tough work, this job got even more complicated due to frigid winter temperatures, powerful winds and mounds of snow, according to the company. Steve Burkholder, Lomma's heavy lift manager at its Pittsburg, Pa., location, said the Manitowoc cranes handled the job with ease.
