Box girders have many structural advantages when compared to plate girders and truss girders. Some of the advantages are:

high torsional rigiditieswide top and bottom flanges to carry longitudinal & lateral forces

large internal space to accommodate servicessimple maintenance due to easy access to the interior of the superstructure

better appearance due to high slenderness and smooth bottom surfaces.Due to the high torsional rigidity of this type of cross-section, box girders are a

very convenient solution for moving bridges, subjected to lateral forces as a result of acceleration, braking or bumping of Cranes / Traverser on the end stop

due to human error / failure of systems. The advantage is associated with a higher natural frequency of torsional vibration of the deck avoiding an interaction with the fundamental mode corresponding to

vertical vibrations (flexure mode). The risk of flutter instabilities is thus eliminated. Vibrations

The Company also Manufactures ~~~~

Transfer cars manufactured by us are in diverse factories handling hot metal, steel coils and heavy reactor components.

We manufacture winches for hauling as well as handling heavy material

We manufacture other Material Handling Equipments like Rotators for welding as also for non destructive testing of large diameter vessels, Assembly Platforms and any other special purpose cranes as per client’s requirements.

Various Railway workshops in India including a well known multinational company manufacturing coaches for metro rails use our Traversers for handling of coaches, wagons and other rolling stocks.

Our Cranes for Thermal and Hydro Electric Power Stations include cranes for handling Gates, Pumps, as well as turbine stators and rotors in such Power Stations.

We have supplied scores of cranes of upto 300T capacity for handling of turbine components in the various Thermal and Hydro Power Stations under construction. These cranes are meant for operation in tandem. In such tandem operation from any of the cranes, both the cranes can be operated simultaneously . A level sensing switch is incorporated in the lifting beam which will trip both the cranes in tandem operation in the case of unequal lifting by the cranes. Two cranes of 275t capacity each are for tandem operation with a 500t capacity lifting beam, also supplied by us.

Cranes in tandem are also used in Railway Workshops for handling Locomotives and Railway coaches.

Following photographs illustrate some of the cranes used in Tandem.

Handling Railway Coaches


For Nuclear Power Stations, we have been manufacturing Single Failure Proof Cranes conforming to Nureg specifications. These include a 280t Single Failure Proof crane for a new Nuclear Power Station. In a Nuclear Power Station , safety gets a higher priority and hence the concept of Single Failure Proof system. The hoist mechanism at every stage has a backup. There are two rope reeving systems independent of each other. Each system can, with full safety , handle the entire load and lower, raise and hold it as desired. Therefore, with the failure of one system, the hoist mechanism remains operational.

We have supplied a fairly large number of such cranes for Nuclear Power Plants in Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Gujarat, Rajasthan and U.P. In addition, we have supplied a four trolley 100t capacity Single Failure Proof crane system for fuelling our Nuclear Submarines.

We manufacture, in collaboration with Bingham of U.K., Coach Washing Plants for external cleaning of complete Railway rakes.

In collaboration with McLanahan of Australia and USA, we manufacture Feeder Breaker and associated equipment for Petroleum Coke for Refineries and Petro Chemicals.

LOAD TEST Where required, the load test of cranes and other equipment manufactured

by us is carried out in our shops. We have a pit over which we can load test EOT cranes with upto 250t of load. In another shop, we have a high bay in which we have tested cranes with 350t of load. Kindly appreciate that very few manufacturers the world over, have the capacity to load test cranes manufactured by them to this extent.

TRANSFER CARS Transfer cars manufactured by us carry hot metal ladles, scrap charging

buckets, steel coils in various steel plants as also they carry large Reactor components in Nuclear Power Plants on a 400t capacity system supplied by us.

WINCHES We manufacture winches for various operations, having supplied 29 mine

sinking winches to the erstwhile Soviet Union. We had supplied co-ordinated four Winch systems for handling of Ash trays for 210mW Boilers for a Thermal Power Plant. Recent supplies include two units of 125t capacity with supporting structure for handling of heavy material and Transformers for a hydroelectric power station.

up to the finished products

All inspection carried out with calibrated equipments

NDT Facility like Radiography, UT, Magna flux and DP

Due attention is paid to ensure quality of our products. This starts with our workmen, who are disciplined, dedicated and highly skilled. Our welders are qualified according to ASME section IX. They and other workers periodically undergo programmes for enhancement of their skills in their respective trades.

All incoming material is tested. Steel plates, bought from prime manufacturers with traceable test certificates are ultrasonically tested. All castings and forgings are accepted only after they pass the specified non destructive tests. Similarly all bought out components undergo thorough inspection before acceptance. Physical tests including ultimate tensile strength and Charpy tests are carried out.

During fabrication all important welds are subjected to Radiographic

inspection, including butt welds in the girder flanges and webs.

The Quality Assurance Dept. Carries out various stage inspections and coordinates with the client and his inspection agency for final tests.
