A harbour crane is used at ports to transfer cargo between ships and the shore. These cranes are designed to handle heavy and large loads, and they possess high maneuverability for operational efficiency.
They are generally equipped with various lifting tools such as hooks, nets, or spreaders to handle containers, pallets, and various other types of cargo. Each plays a crucial role in port operations, ensuring that cargo loading and unloading are done quickly and safely.
Some problems and solutions related to harbour cranes are as follows:
1. Problem: Reduced Power, Clogged Filters, Short Filter Replacement Intervals
PThese issues are common in diesel engines due to the use of diesel fuel. The accumulation of particulate matter in diesel can clog filters.
Solution: EonFuel 708
This is a fuel dispersant, injector cleaner, and cetane improver, an additive for diesel engines with the following features and benefits:
- Reduces particulate content in diesel by more than 50% (ISO CODE 4406)
- Prevents low power in the unit caused by clogged diesel filters
- Can increase the cetane number by an average of 1-3 points
- Helps clean injector deposits quickly, restoring lost power and engine performance
- Provides oxidation stability in diesel to prevent deposit formation

2. Problem: Wire Issues
Wire rope problems in harbour cranes include wear, corrosion, and damage due to friction or excessive loads. Wear occurs due to continuous use, while corrosion is caused by exposure to harsh marine environments.
Solution: EonWire 230
This is a wire rope lubricant and inhibitor, a mixture of lubricant and anti-corrosion agents to maintain wire slings. This product adheres to the surface of the wire sling, protecting it from friction and rust. It does not melt or drip under high pressure or temperature. EonWire 230 contains a blend of lubricants, additives, and anti-corrosion agents.

3. Problem: Automated Lubrication for Wires
Manual lubrication is not optimal and consumes a lot of time and effort. An automated lubrication system needs to be implemented properly and accurately.
Solution 1: Autolube
This is an automatic lubrication system that offers ease and optimization.

Solution 2: LE 452
This is a lubricant for wire ropes that works from the outer surface to the inner core layers. It is mineral oil-based and contains Almasol, which is unique compared to other lubricants. This additive prevents premature wear, withstands high loads, protects metal from corrosion, and is resistant to acids.
