JDN Targets Offshore Markets

JD Neuhaus, a German manufacturer of air and hydraulic powered lifting equipment, will take its products to two offshore focused trade shows in Q2 2011. First, it will exhibit in the German Pavilion at the Offshore Technology Conference, which will take place at Reliant Park, Houston, Texas, 2-5 May (booth 4717-6). It will then exhibit at Brazil Offshore, at the Macaé Centro, Macaé, 14-17 June, where, again, it will exhibit in the German Pavilion.

Exhibits will include its EH 25 monorail hoist which is designed to fulfill all requirements for the safe and effective handling of BOP products whether for offshore rigs, sea going vessels or land based operations. A 25 tonne lift capacity is combined with air or hydraulic operated lift and travel movements, together with optional remote electrical or radio controls.

For shipbuilding or general shipyard applications the new JDN Profi 25 Ti hoist provides both horizontal and oblique lifting and pulling with sensitive positioning control and rugged reliability. The EH and Profi hoists both benefit from recent design advantages in performance, low component count and energy savings with models also available with 37 and 50 tonne lift capacities.

To complement these marine proven products, the company will show its Profi 6 Ti air operated hoist developed for subsea operation. Other 25 tonne capacity hoists have already been successfully deployed in underwater repair operations on a large tanker vessel while still afloat.
