Konecranes books Australian order

Konecranes reveals a significant year-on-year drop in order intake for its port solutions business segment against record-high comparison period.

Konecranes wants to find a new owner for its straddle carrier manufacturing operations in Würzburg to bolster efficiency, following a review of both internal and external operations.

Gottwald ESP.6 mobile harbour crane has a working radius of up to 49 m and a maximum capacity of 125 t to serve container ships up to Panamax class.

The former Kocks Ardelt Kranbau GmbH was split into two companies, only the service business was sold to Konecranes.

Konecranes says that integration of digital services, like TRUCONNECT® Remote Monitoring and CheckApp, across all their port cranes and lift trucks is paired with ISO/IEC 27001 certification.

In recent years the annual net sales of the acquired business have totaled around EUR 10-12M, and the business has been profitable.
