American Crane Nuclear Industry Cranes & Equipment

American Crane's nuclear program dates to the 1980s when we developed automated radwaste handling cranes which are deployed at numerous commercial power plants. This was followed by cranes supplied to the Department of Energy sites, built in accordance with our nuclear quality assurance program. In the mid 1990s American Crane developed a multi-year plan to enter the market for single failure-proof crane applications.

Over 40 Single Failure-Proof Cranes, ranging from 1 to 150 tons, have been built, or are on order. These cranes are at DOE sites, space launch facilities, and commercial power plants. At present the majority of new cask handling cranes have been or are being supplied by American Crane. These designs have passed US NRC review and have been found acceptable. These "lessons learned" have been incorporated into American Crane's latest single failure-proof design ULTRASAF™ (Ultimate Lifting To Resolve Accidental Drop)

Our SAFLIFT™ product automates the transfer of vertical dry cask storage systems and minimizes seismic risk during the dry spent fuel transfer process. American Crane, as the nuclear crane market leader, can provide complete turnkey packages of material handling equipment built in accordance with its 10CFR 50 Appendix B/NQA-1 quality assurance program.

American Crane is capable of supplying reactor, turbine and auxiliary building cranes for the next generation of nuclear power plant.
