Paklog’s core business is the production of wooden transport packaging and industrial packing of all types of cargo in transport (sea, air, land, rail). The new crane will help manage these loads more efficiently, improve throughput, and maintain safe handling practices.
The crane is installed on a runway structure supported by existing concrete pillars, featuring a load capacity of 5 tons, a span of 7.5 meters, a lifting height of 5.5 meters, and a runway length of 43 meters. The Konecranes X-series crane includes several advanced features relevant to Paklog's packaging operations:
- Radio control with integrated display and stepless buttons – allows precise remote handling of packaged goods.
- Integrated safety lights – improves visibility and safety in busy packing areas.
- Stepless inverter for hoisting and travel – contributes to smooth, accurate positioning of loads.
- DIN hook and finger protection – reduces risk of accidents during frequent handling.
- Smart Features such as Hook Centering, Follow Me, Snag Prevention, and Sway Control help position loads efficiently and safely.
- Smart wireless components – monitor crane condition and simplify maintenance.
