Dismantling of Fun City Rides at Al Majma’ah Mall with Spider Crane URW706

We are excited to share the successful completion of a challenging project at Al Majma’ah Mall, where our Spider Crane URW706 played a crucial role in the dismantling of the Fun City Rides. This compact and lightweight equipment proved to be invaluable in navigating the tight spaces of the mall and ensuring a smooth dismantling process. Our UNIC URW706 was extensively used for this mall upgrade.

Project Overview

The dismantling of the Fun City Rides presented several challenges due to the tight confines of the mall environment. The rides were not only large and heavy but also situated in a crowded area surrounded by retail outlets and traffic from shoppers in the mall. We needed to ensure safety without compromising efficiency, while minimizing disruption which was paramount.

Challenges Faced

Confined Spaces: The rides were tightly packed within the mall, making traditional lifting impractical. The limited maneuverability required a more agile solution.
Weight and Size: Each ride’s component weight and component sizes, varied significantly, necessitating precise lifting techniques to avoid damage to surrounding structures.
Safety Concerns: With the presence of shoppers and employees, maintaining a safe working environment was a top priority.

The Role of Spider Crane URW706

The Spider Crane URW706 proved to be the ideal solution for this complex task. Here’s how it excelled:

Compact Design: Its compact size allowed it to navigate through narrow aisles and operate in tight spaces without compromising stability.
Exceptional Lifting Capacity: Despite its small footprint, the Spider Crane URW706 has an impressive lifting capacity, easily handling the ride’s heavy components.
Precision Control: The crane’s advanced control system enabled our operators to execute delicate lifts with pinpoint accuracy, ensuring that each component was removed safely and efficiently.
Versatility: The ability to adjust the crane’s configuration meant we could adapt to the varying heights and weights of the lifts being executed.

Our UNIC Mini Spider Crane Range

What does the range of our cranes comprise of? As the sole distributor on behalf of UNIC Europe, we have insured that we have the full fleet range available with capacities from 1T up to 10T. At 600mm wide, some cranes are small enough to enter through a normal single door, making access very easy. Outriggers can be placed at multiple positions (max, mid, and min-extension), allowing the cranes to work in almost all locations.

These cranes are most often used inside buildings and in between floors, to install glass or façade panels on the outside of the building. The cranes can work below their own position from 60m below up to 128m below, depending on the size of crane used. This is the reason many façade companies use Spider cranes in between tower floors, lifting unitized panels and/or plain glass panels from a point below and installing them.

Benefits of Using Spider Crane for Projects

For clients considering the Spider Crane for their projects, the benefits are clear:

Efficiency: The speed and agility of the Spider Crane drastically reduce project timelines, allowing for quicker completion without sacrificing safety.
Cost-Effectiveness: By minimizing the need for extensive setup and reducing the risk of damage, clients can save on labor and potential repair costs.
Enhanced Safety: The design of the Spider Crane prioritizes safety, making it an excellent choice for projects in populated areas.
Flexibility: Whether it’s dismantling rides, lifting heavy machinery, or working in tight urban spaces, the Spider Crane adapts to various job requirements.

Conclusion

The dismantling of the Fun City Rides at Al Majma’ah Mall was a testament to our commitment to excellence and innovation. The Spider Crane URW706 not only met the challenges of the project but exceeded our expectations in terms of performance and safety.

We encourage clients to consider the Spider Crane for their upcoming projects, as it offers a reliable solution for even the most challenging lifting tasks. With our state-of-the-art equipment and skilled operators, we can ensure that your project is completed smoothly and efficiently.
