Company

Navantia is an international leader in shipbuilding and complex industrial systems.

The 25-ton crane truck required a complete overhaul to ensure efficiency, reliability, and safety in load handling. An integrated magnetic cushion was added to optimize operation and protect critical loads.

Challenge

Upgrade a critical crane trolley, incorporating electrical improvements and a magnetic cushion, without interrupting production or compromising workshop safety. Ensure operational reliability and equipment lifespan with minimal manual intervention.

Problem

  • Outdated electrical systems:
    Old wiring, cabinets, and components affected reliability.
  • Low operational efficiency:
    Limitations in motion control and load braking.
  • Risk of breakdowns:
    Higher probability of electrical failures and unexpected stoppages.
  • Maintenance limitations:
    Difficulty in adapting and maintaining old systems.

Solution

How we do it?

To ensure safety, efficiency, and reliability, we completely reconditioned the crane trolley and installed a new magnetic pad, following Navantia's industrial standards and incorporating IkolCrane for advanced digitization and monitoring:

  • Disassembly and electrical renovation
    Removal of obsolete wiring and components, installation of new electrical cabinets and power systems.
  • Supply and integration of magnetic pad
    Installation of an optimized magnetic pad to improve load handling and operator safety.
  • Connection, commissioning, and functional testing
    Complete verification of all crane trolley functions, ensuring maximum reliability and efficiency.
  • Digitization and integration with IkolCrane
    Implementation of the IkolCrane solution for real-time monitoring of the crane trolley, recording of maneuvers, work cycles, and automatic alerts, enabling predictive maintenance, complete traceability, and remote access from any device.

Results

  • Complete electrical modernization of the 25-ton crane truck
  • Improved operational efficiency and safety
  • Increased reliability and reduced failures
  • Integrated magnetic cushion for load protection
  • System designed for optimized maintenance and long-term operation
