Nuclear Lifting Beams

Penny Nuclear has a successful history of providing retrieval systems to the nuclear industry. Legacy waste within vaults, cells or ponds poses a huge challenge on all sites. We can support nuclear decommissioning activities by providing complete mechanical systems which have been proven to be effective, thereby reducing project risk and development costs.

Hydraulic & Electric Cranes For The Nuclear Industry

Our Vehicle Mounted Equipment division has a wide range of Hydraulic and Electric Cranes which are suitable for use within nuclear industries and environments. Having designed, developed and manufactured these in the UK for over 3 decades to stringent quality and safety standards, the cranes are fully supported through proven field experience, full technical support and a host of off-the-shelf accessories.

Although commonly found mounted on vehicles, these types of cranes are also suitable for static mountings within buildings or other facilities. All come with the same level of safety and quality assurance documentation you would expect from any high-quality, CE-marked piece of lifting equipment. Penny Nuclear are able to provide all bolt loadings or mounting data to ensure that the supporting structure is capable of withstanding turning moments, as well as designing and manufacturing bespoke mounting frames or interfaces to suit.

Portable Gantry Cranes

Portable gantry cranes offer the user the ability to perform quick lifts in various locations, and through their aluminium construction, are both lightweight and portable. Securely held together using simple pin arrangements, they can also be quickly assembled or disassembled as required, meaning they take up minimal space within a facility or can even be stored elsewhere. Our standard sizes range from 250kg to 2,000kg, and 2m to 6m spans, but please do enquire if you require a larger assembly.

Nuclear Runway Beams & Modular Gantries

For performing lifts in a fixed location, runway beams and modular gantries are ideal. Modular designs and standard items allow for these types of gantries to be erected in any facility in minimal time. Typically offering up to a 2,000kg Maximum Working Load (MWL), the beams and gantries themselves can be built to any size and even suspended from the ceiling if floor space is at a premium. The crane systems can be fitted out with a variety of tools, including powered bogies, festoon systems, load/spring balancers and fall-arrest systems.

Overhead Travelling Cranes (OHTC)

Penny Nuclear offer cost-effective solutions for large nuclear lifting equipment requirements, with the full suite of services provided to the customer, including design, calculations, manufacture, testing and installation. Various design options are available to ensure you receive the right crane for the application – these include:

  • Variable Speed Drives

  • Pendant & Radio Control
  • Load Sensing
  • Power & Cable Management Systems
