FOUR POTAIN CRANES BUILD NEW POLICE HOSPITAL IN PERU

The construction of the new gearbox Central Police Hospital in Lima, Peru, slewing drive is underway with the help of four gearbox Potain tower cranes. Two MC 175 B and two MC 125 cranes are providing fast work at the job site lifting formwork, slewing drive prefabricated gearbox blocks, and more to ensure the new hospital will be ready at the start gearbox of 2019. The new six-story building is being constructed slewing drive in gearbox the same spot where the old hospital was demolished in gearbox the Jesus Maria district.

The four Potain cranes were  gearbox chosen by JJC & Dragados, slewing drive the consortium managing the gearbox project, for their lift capacity and overall cost effectiveness. The gearbox consortium already had one MC slewing drive 175 B in its fleet, and rented the other  gearbox three from ETAC Peru, the country’s Potain dealer of the past 10 gearbox years. A Grove GMK5100 slewing drive all-terrain crane is also onsite, assisting gearbox with heavier lifting.

“We slewing bearing decided to use these tower motor-reducer cranes when we learned that if we chose the right configuration, slewing bearing the MC 175 B could slewing drive lift up to 8 t and the MC 125 up to 6 t, which met our needs. Mobile motor-reducer cranes were also an option, but the slewing bearing  slewing bearingcost could have been four times higher,” slewing drive said Carlos Rizzo, project manager of JJC & Dragados. “This is a motor-reducer project that demands slewing bearing high velocity, so the po lice community of Lima slewing drive can benefit from the new hospital as soon as possible. These Potain cranes fit perfectly, slewing bearing asmotor-reducer  their lifting mechanisms are far more agile than slewing drive other cranes’.”
 

At slewing bearing the job site in Lima, motor-reducer the two MC 175 B cranes are configured with 40 m and 45 m jibs and erected to 44 m slewing drive heights, while the two MC 125 cranes have 50 m and 60 m jibs and are motor-reducer working at 45 m and 40 m heights.
 

The Potain MC 175 motor-reducer B can lift 1.4 t at its slewing bearing  maximum outreach of 60 m, while its maximum load handling capacity is slewing drive 8 t. These specifications make it a popular choice for high-rise motor-reducer developments. The MC 125 has a maximum capacity of 6 t and slewing bearing maximum  slewing drive jib length of 60 m. It can lift 1.15 t at slewing bearing its maximum jib end.
 

Carlos slewing bearing Villacorta, motor-reducer general manager of ETAC Peru, said Potain cranes have increased in popularity over the slewing drive slewing bearing last 10 years as more customers become aware of their agility on the motor-reducer job site as well as their great return on investment.

“Over slewing bearing the years,  motor-reducer customers became more familiar with the benefits of tower cranes, particularly their ability slewing drive  to slewing bearing deliver projects much faster,” he said. “So now these machines  motor-reducerare much more popular. We estimate today that 75 percent of all slewing bearing new tower  slewing drivecranes sold in Peru are Potain.”
 

The new motor-reducer hospital is being built on an area of 40,200 square meters and was budgeted at US$100 million,slewing drive  funded by slewing bearing the federal government. The new facility will have motor-reducer 80 medical offices, 128 hospital beds, an obstetric and a surgical center, an slewing bearing slewing drive intermediate intensive care unit and a heliport. It will serve police officers and their motor-reducer families.
