Working together for innovative solutions: Retrofit-Project Goliath gantry crane for German Naval Yards

In collaboration with our partners Hartmann & König Stromzuführungs AG and Krott Electronics GmbH, we have developed a customized retrofit solution for one of Kiel’s landmarks, the Goliath gantry crane in the shipyard of German Naval Yards. With our focus on global retrofit projects for ports and shipyards and our wide range of fitting crane cables, connectivity solutions and additional cable termination services, we were able to supply a cost time-optimized turnkey solution together with our involved partner companies.

The video provides exciting insights into the installation and commissioning of the motorized cable reel with the installation of the medium voltage reeling cable, as well the assembly and final termination to the junction box for power and data communication - a robust system that supports the horizontal mobility of the gantry crane. With a speed of up to 180 m/min and a winding length of up to 400m, our solution offers the necessary flexibility and high performance required for efficient goods handling.

Thanks to the precise cooperation between Klaus Faber AG, Hartmann & König Stromzuführungs AG and Krott Electronics GmbH, we ensure that even complex requirements in just-in-time logistics are successfully realized - Worldwide.
