Awarded by Sumitomo Chemical Engineering for 1 unit of 35 ton Double Girder Gantry Crane at Jurong Island

Jenmon was awarded by Sumitomo Chemical Engineering Singapore Pte Ltd (SCEC) to design, supply, deliver, install, test and commission a unit of 35 ton Double Girder Explosion Proof Gantry Crane system with mechanical spreader beam. The location of this project was at Jurong Island.

Sumitomo Chemical Engineering Singapore Pte Ltd provides engineering, procurement and construction services. They have piled several plant construction records in various fields such as Petrochemicals, Basic Chemicals, Pharmaceutical Chemicals, Fine Chemicals, Chemicals for Information Technology and Environment.

Jenmon used energy chains which are capable of feeding the primary power and control cables along the crane bridge easily. As the electrical cables that hang from the crane are not visible, the cranes have a more sophisticated and safe design.

The most challenging part of the project was to ensure that the energy chain used for the long travelling of the crane would be able to continuously supply power on the complete travelling distance. This included a portion of 10m road for trucks and lorries to travel for loading and unloading of goods.

Therefore, Jenmon’s Engineering and Design team innovated and incorporated the existing energy chain with a retractable feature to allow the Gantry Crane to travel onto the road seamlessly without the need to use the energy chain over the 10m road.
