Modulift and their in-house engineering team have designed and manufactured a bespoke lifting beam that was capable of recovering a micro tunnelling machine from the depths of the sea. In just 8 weeks, the Modulift team designed, produced and delivered a 50t custom beam that was compliant with DNV-ST-N001 standards.
The beam had to be designed for use above and below the water, taking into account the differences in the centre of gravity location and weight of the micro tunnelling machine due to the buoyancy force.
