The main function of the motors on a crane is to lift and lower a load, and to move the trolley and crane along the rails that take the load to a new location.
Every Konecranes motor that we produce has been purpose-built specifically for crane applications. Each motor is a fully-integrated core component designed for the intermittent motions of hoisting or traveling in crane duty cycles.
Together, the gearbox, motor and control system are what we call the Core of Lifting.
Quality assured by testing
We back up extensive and rigorous testing in all kinds of lifting environments with regular internal and external quality monitoring. Whether you buy a standard or tailored crane, you can be sure of a high-quality lifting product.
We comply with all relevant standards locally and globally, including UL, CSA, EN, EC and EU, as well as IEC and ISO. For lifting devices working in hazardous environments, our motors are CSA/UL, ATEX and IECEx certified.
As part of our Core of Lifting, a Konecranes motor will keep your cranes performing reliably for many years to come.
