Following the successful delivery of the first unit, MAXTECH has delivery another crane – a 65-ton hydraulic luffing A-frame crane bound for Saudi Arabia. This high-end equipment, integrating the dual attributes of offshore crane and ship-specific crane, further solidifies MAXTECH’s marketing position in the Middle Eastern heavy industry market, injecting "Chinese strength" into Saudi Arabia's energy development and port construction.
Customized Design: Cracking the Code of Saudi Market's Special Requirements
Aiming at Saudi Arabia’s harsh high-temperature, high-humidity, and dusty marine environment, MAXTECH has comprehensively enhanced the performance of this A-frame crane:
1. High-temperature resistance: Equipped with IP56-protected motors and Class F insulation windings, it can sustain full-load operations at +55°C. A heavy-duty cooling system ensures stable oil temperatures;
2. Corrosion resistance: The steel structure undergoes Sa2.5-level sandblasting rust removal before applying a three-layer anti-corrosion coating of epoxy zinc-rich primer (80μm) + acrylic polyurethane topcoat (90μm), enhancing salt spray resistance by 50%;
3. Flexibility upgrade: A new wireless remote control module enables operators to adjust the 2500mm horizontal luffing distance and 4.1m hoisting height within a 50-meter radius, ideal for precise operations in narrow deck spaces.
Here is the technical parameter of 65t A-frame crane:
| main technical parameter | |
| SWL | 65t |
| Max hoisting height | 4.1m |
| Hoisting speed | 5m/min |
| Back to the side of the hook to the side | ≈3850mm |
| Amplitude variation time | 120s |
| Distance between the center of the two legs | 3.5m |
| Power | 75kW×2 |
| Working system | S6-40% |
| Voltage | 380V 50Hz 3ph |
| Allowable tilt of ship | heel≤5°/trim≤10° |
Localized Services: Building a Moat in the Middle Eastern Market
"Service precedes equipment" is MAXTECH’s core strategy in the Saudi market. This shipment launches the "3+15 Service Plan":
1. 3-day rapid response: The dedicated Middle Eastern service team commits to arriving on-site within 3 days of a failure report;
2. 15-day free commissioning: Senior engineers are dispatched for on-site installation guidance, ensuring seamless integration with local 380V/50Hz power systems and Arabic-language operation interfaces;
3. Full-cycle training: Customized bilingual (Chinese-English) training manuals and simulated practical courses cover core skills like hydraulic system maintenance and emergency stop operations.
Industry Impact: Showing A-frame Crane Standards
Statistics show that since the first delivery, MAXTECH has achieved an 85% customer repurchase rate in Saudi Arabia, expanding from ports to emerging fields like offshore wind power and hydrogen facility construction. The departure of this new unit marks not just a sales milestone but also a leap for Chinese heavy industry brands from "product export" to "technical standard export" – the equipment’s BV classification certification system and ISO 12944 anti-corrosion standards have become invisible competitiveness in the Middle Eastern market.
Future Vision: Co-building a Blue Economy Blueprint with Saudi Arabia
With the advancement of national projects like Red Sea tourism development and the NEOM smart city, Saudi Arabia’s demand for heavy lifting equipment is growing exponentially.
The repeated departure of these 65-ton A-frame cranes is not just a commercial delivery but also an epitome of MAXTECH’s Belt and Road collaboration with Saudi Arabia – as China’s intelligent manufacturing "steel arms" integrate into the Middle Eastern infrastructure wave, a global drawing of "technology for market, service for trust" is slowly unfolding.
