Avalon Defence Project

At West Crane Services, we take pride in delivering tailored crane solutions for Australia’s most demanding industries. One of our most recent large-scale projects saw us design, fabricate, and install a range of overhead cranes for the Defence industry, right here in Avalon, Victoria.

This ambitious project involved the integration of multiple crane systems, ensuring the facility was equipped to handle a variety of heavy-duty lifting tasks. Our team successfully installed:

  • 2x 30/5 Tonne Double Girder Overhead Cranes
  • 4x 10 Tonne Single Girder Overhead Cranes
  • 3x 500kg Free Standing Jib Cranes

A Comprehensive Crane Solution

The Defence sector requires precision, reliability, and durability, and West Crane Services was chosen to deliver exactly that. Each crane was custom-designed to meet the unique requirements of the facility, ensuring optimal performance, safety, and ease of operation.

The 30/5 Tonne Double Girder Overhead Cranes provide robust lifting capabilities for the facility’s heavier operations. Meanwhile, the 10 Tonne Single Girder Cranes offer versatile and efficient solutions for mid-range loads, and the 500kg Free Standing Jib Cranes cater to lighter, localized lifting needs.

Fabrication and Installation Expertise

Our manufacturing team meticulously fabricated all crane systems, adhering to the highest standards of quality and safety.

We utilized Akerstroms wireless remote systems, renowned for their reliability and precise control, giving operators enhanced maneuverability and control over crane operations.
