From the beginning of 2021, investments of Multipurpose Reloading Complex LLC operating in the port of Ust-Luga in development totaled RUB 13.3 million, up 6 times, year-on-year.
According the the press release of MRC, the bulk of the amount was allocated for the purchase of full-revolving 5-cbm clamshell buckets for articulating cranes and a mobile dust suppressing unit. The clamshell buckets are fitted with a hydraulic mechanism allowing partial or full rotation which ensures maximum serviceability. The new dust suppression equipment can operate round the year in different modes depending on weather conditions.
Expansion of the company’s fleet of equipment lets MRC intensify its operation and enhance environmental safety of works at the terminal.
This year, Multipurpose Reloading Complex will continue modernization of its equipment. The plans for this year include the purchase of additional clamshell grabs including grabs for portal cranes and an articulating boom lift for conducting repair and maintenance of manipulators and gantry cranes.
