Cavotec continues to strengthen its position as an important supplier of niche technologies to major Swedish industrial companies with several projects involving its radio remote control (RRC) systems in recent months.
In another example of how our radio remote control (RRC) systems are used at some unusual applications around the world, one such unit recently entered service with two huge water cannon at Petroport in Stenungsund, southern Sweden.
Cavotec Germany recently hosted an open day at its new, state-of-the-art production facility and office space just outside Frankfurt.
Our radio remote controls (RRC) are used in some of the harshest environments in the world. Now, one of our RRC units is headed to the Antartic, where it will be used with to operate a specialised crane that launches and recovers a survey vessel.
How do you maneuver the world's largest refinery reactor through a built up area? And how does a Cavotec radio remote control (RRC) unit help? Watch this clip for some close calls, brushes with street furniture - and even a (smoking hot) Cavotec RRC.
Cavotec's radio remote control (RRC) experts - Cavotec Micro-control - recently took part in a highly successful ONS2012, one of the offshore energy industry's largest exhibitions. Held in Stravanger, Norway, between August 28 and 30, the event attracted some 50,000 attendees. Here's a brief overview of Cavotec's presence at the show.
The Board of Directors of the Cavotec engineering group is pleased to announce the acquisition of aircraft ground support equipment (GSE) manufacturer Combibox Systems Scandinavia AB, which in 2011 had revenues of approximately EUR 2 million. The acquistion made on 3 September 2012 is set to further strengthen the Group’s product offering and customer base in the global airports sector.
Interislander, operator of one of the world's most beautiful ferry routes - between North and South Island in New Zealand - is currently celebrating its 50th year of operation. The service was also the very first in the world to introduce Cavotec's automated mooring system MoorMaster™.
Cavotec's uniquely innovative technology for mooring for ships, MoorMaster™, is becoming increasingly widely adopted. This press release provides details of the most recent application for the technology: a container handling application on the Mediterranean Sea; the second of its kind there. MoorMaster™ now serves ferry, bulk handling, Ro-Ro, container and lock applications worldwide.
