Southampton Container Terminal awarded SEWARD WYON the contract for increasing the height of five Morris ship to shore container cranes at Southampton.

SEWARD WYON have developed a new innovative jacking system to increase the lift height of the Morris built cranes on the main SCT terminal, which were first commissioned in 1993.
This new 1000 tonne jacking system has been designed and engineered in our Bristol workshops and has been built to withstand wind speeds of 80-mph, utilising eight-185te computer controlled strand jacks.

The system has been designed so that, if required, each strand jack can be removed or replaced with ease - even during the lifting cycle

Existing and bespoke Jacking systems can also be designed and engineered for specific requirements and are available worldwide along with our project engineering team.

SEWARD WYON offers a comprehensive Structural, Mechanical and Electrical crane inspection service, which is available either as part of a routine inspection schedule or to investigate modifications to existing crane design
