“We were very pleased to support our long standing customer Casagrande with this multimodal shipment as this crane is the biggest ever exported on behalf of our customer and it was necessary to ensure the safest, most cost effective and time critical way to transport the machine” – ALS’ General Manager – Italy
Planning for this abnormal load shipment took over 3 months which involved several discussions with the client, ports and highways.
In total the machine weighed over 200Ts and was transported in over 20 pieces.
The largest piece of the machine measured 15.50 metres in length and the main body of the machine measured 3.50 metres wide and 3.50 metres high with a weight of 50 tons.
It’s journey involved road transportation from Italy to Belgium where it was loaded on to ALS’ parent company – Wallenius Wilhelmsen’s roro vessel to the USA. This took around 30 days from collection in Italy to delivery to final destination in the USA.
Casagrande was extremely happy with the care and precision of the team involved in this movement.
The crane was delivery safely and on time.
