News November 2010 Just recently the installation of a brand new double-girder 10T crane system was completed in North Bay for G&P Welding. The original plan was to install the bridge, then swap hoists with another crane and install the second hoist at a later date. Scheduling conflicts continually pushed the install date, but it happened to be a blessing in disguise as it allowed the secondary hoist time to arrive and be installed on the new bridge. This lucky break, along with an ingenious forklift crane jig made by G&P allowed for rapid install, with the entire process from ground to finished system taking only one day.
The previous experience of the G&P employees in installing cranes and their proactive nature helped tremendously in the preparation, installation and finishing of this crane and we greatly appreciate their co-operation and help.
Early impressions of the crane system were positive, with several commenting that the crane would be a huge relief in the future as production continues to ramp up at the G&P faciltiy.
March 2010 Mansour Mining Inc. has again utilized the CraneWerx/O'Brien team approach to solve their material handling issues. The recent replacement of a double girder, top-running bridge (55' span) went off without a hitch. The older crane had reached the end of its life cycle and was no longer efficient to use. CraneWerx and O'Brien's managed to deliver the new bridge with a custom trolley gauge within two weeks from order date to installation. Kevin Murphy, Plant Supervisor, stated, "I wouldn't have believed it; there aren't many organizations --that I know of who could have turned this project around in this time frame." Thanks to all involved in this project.
February 2010 Congratulations to Boart Longyear of North Bay on the recent installation of a Spanco Free-Standing Workstation crane.

The Spanco systems are meant to service computerized cutting machines and offer enough flexibility to service the entire work area.

Dec 09/Jan 10 Congratulations to Kevin Whynott and the entire Total Electrical Systems group on the recent installation of their new 5 tonne crane and free-standing runway system in their new Chelmsford facility. The installation includes a 35 foot, single girder crane featuring the new Street ZX6 hoist and a custom engineered runway system, designed to maximize both floor space and headroom in the new TES facility. One of the interesting aspects of the runway is the cantilever and bracing desgin to accomodate shop door access without restrictions. The whole system, from initial order, through design, fabrication, and installation was completed in just 3 and a half weeks. Another testament to the O'Brien's Group and their ability to meet even the toughest deadlines, and for their creativity in thinking-outside-the-box on this project.
Kevin says, "I think the grout was basically just dry, and we were maximizing the utility of this shop with this new crane; it will certainly make our work easier." We must say it was a pleasure to work with the entire TES Group and wish them great success in all their future endeavours.
