Belgian company Sarens has unveiled the world’s largest crane – the SGC-250, which will be used to perform all the major lifts at the Hinkley Point C nuclear power plant in the UK.
NuScale Power has also selected PaR Systems to design and manufacture the crane that will be a key component of the building for its small modular reactor (SMR) power plant.
The crane has a maximum load moment of 250,000 tonnes allowing it to lift 5,000 tonnes and is the strongest crane of its kind
