Kamag heavy transporter
According to Kamag, the shipyard will be developed over the next four years to become the largest facility in China.
The heavy transporters, which have been ordered in different sizes with regard to platform dimensions and load-bearing capacity, are intended for the transportation of ship components. Two transporters each with a load capacity of 380 tonnes, three transporters with 250 tonnes and three transporters with a carrying capacity of 150 tonnes respectively will be responsible for moving heavy elements around the shipyard in future.
The loading areas of all vehicles, which are supported on altogether 264 wheels, add up to a total area of more than 800 square metres, as largely as four tennis courts placed side-by-side.
The transporters are equipped with electronic multi-directional steering. It is possible for each individual vehicle or coupled in two, three or four vehicle combinations the wheels can be steered so that the transporter, in addition to normal drive and cornering, can also be driven transversally and diagonally or turn on its own axis.
