Heavy lifting with Mobile Cranes requires efficiency, safety and precision. Often lifts involve oversized or irregularly shaped loads, which require some creativity to lift effectively. Dual lifts are one of our favourite techniques for manoeuvring difficult objects. In this process, two cranes work in tandem to lift a single object. As experts in the field, our team routinely execute dual lifts with unparalleled precision and safety. Here’s why dual lifts are an essential technique in the mobile crane industry and how they deliver exceptional results for complex lifting operations. The Utility of Dual Lifts Using two cranes in tandem significantly increases the total lifting capacity, allowing us to handle much larger and heavier loads than a single crane could manage. Certain loads, such as those with unusual dimensions or weight distributions, can be unstable when lifted by a single crane. With a dual lift, the weight is distributed across two cranes, improving balance and reducing the risk of the load tipping or swinging. Dual lifts can also be essential for situations where the load must be navigated through tight spaces or lifted at an angle. The coordination between two cranes provides greater flexibility in guiding challenging environments. The Effectiveness of Dual Lifts Safety is a top priority in any lifting operation. By distributing the load between two cranes, dual lifts reduce the strain on each crane. At Lindores Mobile Cranes , every dual lift is planned with rigorous attention to detail to ensure the safety of operators, equipment, and the surrounding environment. Dual lifts can also save time on complex projects. Instead of dismantling large loads into smaller pieces for single-crane lifts, a dual lift can handle the load in one go, reducing operational delays and increasing project efficiency. Finally, while dual lifts may seem like a more resource-intensive approach, they can ultimately save money by reducing project timelines, preventing damage to sensitive loads, and avoiding the need for additional equipment or labour. Dual lifts with mobile cranes are a versatile and effective solution for handling complex loads. By leveraging the combined strength of two cranes, this method ensures safety, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness for projects across various industries.
