Safe, by DemagĮfficient crane operation is the main focus at Faber & Schnepp. This new girder concept thus provides significantly improved efficiency for transporting loads and higher han-dling rates. In addition, the ser-vice life is doubled to up to 500,000 load changes. The deadweight of the crane and thus the load on the crane runway is reduced by an average of 17% – this enables an increased load capacity. This innovative and patented design improves the oscillation characteristics by 30% (compared to a box-section girder). The V-shape of the girder consists of pro-file sections with tapered membrane joints. The differences between the V-type girder and a conventional box-section girder design are recognisable at first glance. The crane profile sections are manufactured to fit this opening precise-ly. To transport the precast parts, which can be up to 25 m long, back and forth between the indoor and outdoor areas, the bay has an opening at the front that extends across its en-tire width. Three of these cranes, each with a load capacity of 16 t, are located on a 134-m-long crane runway with a track gauge of 19 m, which covers both the interior of the production area and the open area in front of it. In Faber & Schnepp’s precast parts production, Demag V-type cranes perform this task. After stripping the formwork, the large, often irregularly dimensioned components have to be transported to the storage location or prepared directly for transport to the construction site – efficiently, gently and safely. It is not just a question of the mould lines but the material flow in the precast parts plant, too.

Faber & Schnepp continuously invests in its production facilities, thereby ensuring high efficiency and producing high quality precast parts in individual shapes.Įfficient series production ensures short construction times and cost-effective structures. Part of the group of companies is a precast concrete parts plant in Langgöns, which has been producing structural precast parts since 1967. As a full-service provider with qualified permanent staff, Faber & Schnepp is active in turnkey industrial and residential construction as well as in sewer and road con-struction. Precast parts for efficient constructionįounded in 1932 and headquartered in Gießen (Germany), the company is one of the largest independent specialists in structural and civil engineering in the state of Hesse. At Faber & Schnepp GmbH, there were quite pragmatic reasons that spoke in favour of a V-type crane (with further ones to follow). However, when investing in a crane for day-to-day handling of precast concrete parts, factors other than the innovative and at the same time practical design also count. With a mini-joystick radio control, the crane operator can move the heavy and bulky precast parts using two cranes with smart tandem control.

In the precast concrete production facility operated by Faber & Schnepp, several V-type cranes from Demag help to ensure an efficient material flow – both in the factory and in the outdoor area. Bionic design with slim yet highly robust profile sections that are nevertheless light and elegant and allows light to pass through: Demag V-type cranes enjoy a high level of recognition in the construction industry.
