Looking to maximize the return on investment for your Grove RT crane? Consider a top-tier EnCORE refurbishment from Manitowoc, carried out by experts like Mannai Heavy Equipment in Qatar.
At Mannai Heavy Equipment advanced facility in Doha, four Grove rough-terrain cranes are undergoing a complete refurbishment through Manitowoc’s EnCORE program. The extensive overhaul prepares the cranes to tackle the intense demands of a large-scale industrial expansion, playing a crucial role in driving a major development project.
In Qatar, the most common Manitowoc products selected for EnCORE refurbishment are Grove rough-terrain and all-terrain cranes. These models are highly sought after for their exceptional durability and adaptability, and owners want to maximize their investment in them. With this in mind, the EnCORE program helps extend the cranes’ life and performance, ensuring they continue to deliver first-class performance within the rigorous demands of Qatar’s industrial landscape.
Refurbishments are perfect for cranes aged 10-15 years old, especially those that are starting to see higher maintenance costs or reaching key lifecycle milestones. By taking these cranes out of circulation for a short while, and putting it through a series of EnCORE upgrades, owners can extend the crane’s operational lifespan and enhance reliability, all while minimizing disruptions to projects.
A trusted program for trusted machines
The refurbishment process begins with a thorough inspection of each crane, assessing factors like structural integrity, mechanical wear, and the condition of electronic components. The initial assessment allows the EnCORE partners, such as Mannai Heavy Equipment, to identify areas that require attention and develop a tailored refurbishment plan to address the crane’s specific needs.
An EnCORE refurbishment typically takes 4 to 12 weeks, depending on the crane model and the scope of repairs. The process includes thorough inspections, component repairs, part replacements, and comprehensive testing to ensure optimal performance.
The EnCORE program provides a cost-effective solution for extending the life and enhancing the performance of Grove cranes. With expert teams like Mannai Heavy Equipment, companies in Qatar can ensure their equipment remains reliable and efficient, tackling demanding industrial projects while maintaining the highest standards of performance and safety.
Mannai Heavy Equipment – and all EnCORE partners – follow Manitowoc’s OEM standards and use genuine parts to ensure refurbished cranes achieve performance and reliability on par with new machines, providing a cost-effective solution for extending their service life.
Recent refurbishment projects from Mannai demonstrated extensive expertise, including the comprehensive overhaul of four RT760E rough-terrain cranes and a GMK2035 all-terrain crane. These efforts involved meticulous inspections, structural repairs, and system upgrades to ensure the cranes were restored to peak operational performance.
Magdy Fawzi, service manager for mobile cranes at Mannai Heavy Equipment, explains.
“EnCORE is about maximizing the value of Grove cranes by delivering tailored solutions that breathe new life into these trusted machines. Through this programme, these cranes will be revitalized to deliver peak performance in Qatar’s challenging industrial environments.
