Burt Crane Equipment guide 2011

Only a few days after the delivery of Bay Crane’s new equipment guide we also send new crane guides to Burt Crane. The first issue of the crane guide for Burt Crane was delivered in December 2008. New mobile cranes in the fleet of the US Crane Rental made it necessary to update and print the second issue of the crane guide for Burt Crane.

The second crane guide for Burt Crane covers specifications and load charts for nine all terrain mobile cranes starting from a 55 US-tons Grove GMK 3050 up to a 250 US-tons Tadano Faun ATF 220G-5. Continue reading

This week we delivered a new equipment guide for US crane rental company Bay Crane from New York. The fourth issue of the equipment guide covers some updates of new mobile cranes and equipment.

New equipment handbook for Wagenborg Nedlift

This week the dutch crane and heavy lift specialist Wagenborg Nedlift got their new equipment guide from us. During the last months we have updated and revised the content completely to the new state of the art. Load charts for several new mobile cranes and mobile folding cranes were added. The heavy haulage section was also updated with the drawings and specifications for the new trucks. A major change affects the language used in the book. As Wagenborg Nedlift operates more often outside of the Netherlands the complete book was switched from Netherlands to English now.

Our printing store has finished printing and compilation of the DIN A5 Ringbinder by the beginning of this week and the 4 euro palettes were brought to Groningen, the headquarter of Wagenborg Nedlift in the Netherlands.

Crane hire business on the web

Based upon this headline I have started a new blog on our website yesterday. In a loose series of posts I want to introduce interesting websites for the crane hire business and new and redesigned web projects from crane hire companies all over the world. Also there will definitely be other useful web stuff and links that are worth to show.

If at all I have used the blog on our website only for publishing general news from the crane business in the past. But due to my business my time was already too restricted for going on with it. The result are greater gaps in time and content. Also I don’t think that it is useful anymore to run one of a hundred websites that spread the news from the big news portals for the business.

As I don’t want to resign from blogging on TDKv.com I have decided to combine two for me very interesting and fascinating topics: The crane business and the world wide web. That’s why I’m going to blog about the crane hire business on the web – as far as I have time to do so.

Whenever you have a hint for an interesting website or service for the crane business please feel free to comment here. Your thoughts and remarks are highly appreciated
