In October 2024, Zoke Crane successfully completed the production and shipment of 20 customized 10-ton European-style double girder overhead traveling cranes to a long-term customer in Algeria. Shipped in 18 full containers, this project marks the second large-scale cooperation in a five-year partnership, further solidifying mutual trust and technical synergy between both parties.
Project Background
The Algerian customer, a key player in the local industrial sector, first began working with Zoke Crane in 2019. Over the years, the client has maintained a strong relationship with our team, including regular in-person visits to our production facility in China. These visits have been instrumental in building deep trust and ensuring each project is tailored to their evolving operational needs.
For this order, the client sought a large batch of high-performance overhead cranes suitable for a complex and heavy-duty industrial environment. The equipment needed to demonstrate not only excellent lifting capabilities but also high efficiency, safety, and durability under continuous operation.
Customer Requirements
- European-standard cranes with superior safety and control features
- High load capacity (10 tons) with consistent, reliable performance
- Custom configurations to suit specific workshop layouts and working conditions
- Energy-efficient systems to reduce long-term operating costs
- Tight production timeline with zero compromise on quality
Project Challenges
Delivering a large batch of customized cranes in a limited timeframe posed significant logistical and engineering challenges:
- Coordinating 20 crane units with different layout requirements
- Managing a compressed production schedule
- Ensuring strict European standards compliance
- Arranging bulk shipment in 18 containers while preventing any transport damage
- Conducting final inspection to match the client’s stringent expectations
Our Solution
To ensure a seamless project execution, Zoke Crane assembled a dedicated project team consisting of senior engineers, production coordinators, and quality control experts. After multiple technical meetings and design adjustments, we finalized a custom crane solution that addressed all of the client's requirements.
Throughout the production phase, we leveraged:
- Advanced manufacturing processes, including precision welding and automated machining
- Strict quality control checkpoints at every stage
- Real-time updates to the client, ensuring transparency and collaboration
Thanks to efficient internal coordination and lean production methods, all 20 cranes were completed ahead of schedule. The equipment was then carefully loaded into 18 containers and successfully shipped to Algeria.
