Grove GMK4100 helps improve transport in Singapore

A Grove GMK4100 helped with construction of a new Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) metro line in Singapore. The four-axle crane was used on the new Thomson Line T209 at the Lentor Station project site. Its compact size made it ideally suited to the job, with its carrier length measuring just 10.75 m.

The 100 t capacity crane has a 52 m telescopic boom and a retro-fitted data logger. The data logging capability is a requirement for cranes working in Singapore. The crane was used primarily to lift components for the tunnel boring machine.

Singapore-based crane rental-company, Hiap Tong Crane & Transport Pte Ltd., supplied the four-axle crane to main contractor, China Railway.
