Last year saw BVS Cranes produce innovative machines for the ports sector. “In 2017 BVS Cranes designed and manufactured a special shiploader project for loading soda ash for the ships. With a 1,500t per hour capacity it was the biggest capacity shiploader manufactured in Turkey. BVS Cranes also designed and manufactured a 300t per hour capacity mobile shiploader for working together with the main shiploader. All manufacturing, installation, tests and commissioning were conducted by BVS Cranes. For this project, all the conveyors and silos were manufactured by our steel construction company BCES. “This year, we are currently following some underground projects, highway projects and harbour projects in different areas in the world.”

As an example; a gearmotor drives a conveyor in short bursts, 2 minutes at a time, with 2 minutes off before repeating, over and over, during two 10-hour shifts, five days a week. You need it to operate trouble-free for at least five years or 13,000 hours.

Careful placement of the refueling probe, weapons, radar, sensors and avionics at the front of the aircraft helped balance the larger fuel capacity, and the entire HH-60W airframe has been strengthened to address the new load paths and improve its structural life.
