History

The Neuenfelder Maschinenfabrik was founded in 1970 by J.J.Sietas as a separate company from the yard. Since then develops and produces ship cranes and hydraulic systems got individual clients, the company converted on a complete supplier, and the activities of the company from planning through design and manufacturing extended to the service. In addition to the production at the plant in Neuenfelde, since 2004, delivered cranes to China, mainly produced for the Asian market, but also for the European. In the course of insolvency of Yard, NMF was acquired by TTS in 2012.

Cranes

Design features of the cranes of NMF are a splashproof closed crane housing in welded steel construction, in which all major units are housed. Many cranes offer the so-called 2-line operation on the hook every time a charge. This eliminates the change of shear. Due mostly two pump units and equipment with an auxiliary hoist, a certain reliability is ensured.

The most powerful ship crane is a type of DK SL Heavy Lift load capacity of up to 1000 t. These are also the strongest storm ship cranes in the world, only Huisman Equipment from the Netherlands manufactures powerful ship cranes, but based on a different concept.
