Marine cranes, also known as shipboard cranes or deck cranes, are specialized lifting equipment designed for marine and offshore applications. They are widely installed on various vessels including cargo ships, bulk carriers, container ships, workboats, offshore platforms, fishing boats, and yachts.
These cranes are mainly used for loading and unloading goods, lifting heavy equipment, transferring supplies, hoisting fishing nets, handling containers, and performing maintenance tasks at sea. Built with high-strength materials and anti-corrosion treatment, they can withstand harsh marine environments such as salt spray, humidity, and wind waves.
Marine cranes typically feature stable performance, flexible operation, compact structure, and high safety. Common types include fixed boom cranes, telescopic boom cranes, knuckle boom cranes, and deck cranes. They are widely applied in marine transportation, offshore engineering, port operations, ship maintenance, and ocean engineering projects.
