In modern luxury yacht manufacturing and port operation systems, extremely demanding industry standards are placed on lifting equipment regarding operation precision, safety factors, and working condition adaptability. At “Costa Marine Shipyard,” a top luxury yacht manufacturer and maintenance company located in the core Mediterranean maritime hub of Italy’s Port of Genoa (Porto di Genova), an HSCRANE 80-ton travel lift was recently introduced and put into official operation. Leveraging full-hydraulic drive and multi-point synchronization control technology, this equipment perfectly resolves technical bottlenecks in cross-tonnage luxury yacht haul-outs, transfers, and winter storage, achieving a seamless and highly efficient transition from water to land operations.
Costa Marine Shipyard primarily services custom carbon-fiber and aluminum-alloy luxury yachts featuring high machining precision and complex hull lines. To meet these demands, the HSCRANE technical team custom-engineered this 80-ton travel lift. Its core technical specifications are detailed in the table below:
|
Technical Indicator Parameter |
Design Standards and Parameter Configuration Details |
| Safe Working Load (SWL) | 80 tons (supports independent and synchronized multi-point compound movements) |
| Span and Clearance Height | Span: 10m–16m (adjustable); effective lifting height satisfies deep-draft yacht requirements |
| Power and Drive System | Imported heavy-duty diesel generator set, closed full-hydraulic drive, low noise, high torque |
| Tire Steering and Travel | Rubber tire straight travel, diagonal travel, 90° vertical steering, and pivot steering (multi-wheel independent steering mechanism) |
| Sling and Safety Protection | High-strength flexible webbing slings (prevents hull scratches), equipped with overload limiters and anti-sway control systems |
When handling high-value yachts, traditional mobile cranes often exhibit innate drawbacks such as fixed lifting points, stress concentration, and poor adaptability to narrow dockside spaces. The deployment of the HSCRANE 80-ton travel lift in this project fully demonstrates its practical engineering value:
●Flexible lifting and zero-damage hull protection: The equipment uses wide, high-strength flexible slings combined with adjustable sling-spacing designs. This automatically conforms to bottom curves across diverse hull types, completely eliminating scratches and crushing damage caused by traditional wire ropes or rigid support pads on yacht coatings and composite hulls.
●Millimeter-level wireless remote control for precision positioning: Utilizing PLC programmable logic control systems and wireless remote handsets, dock operators can execute millimeter-level fine adjustments within optimal sight lines. This allows them to effortlessly navigate narrow dockside channels and densely packed vessel areas across Genoa docks.
●All-weather multi-mode composite steering capability: Featuring 90° crab steering and diagonal travel functions, this crane flexibly navigates intricate dry docks and storage areas inside the shipyard. It significantly increases daily turnover efficiency for inside-factory yacht transfers and winter storage.
Since putting this HSCRANE 80-ton travel lift into service, Costa Marine Shipyard has achieved substantial growth in annual vessel maintenance throughput. Through precise hydraulic control and optimized sling layouts, the shipyard reduced haul-out, washing, painting, and transfer cycles for 30-meter luxury yachts by over 35%. This significantly cuts long-term labor and maintenance costs while establishing a leading technical edge across Mediterranean luxury yacht lifecycle services.
