ON THE COVER: Earlier this year, UK-based heavy-lifting specialists, MODULIFT, assisted Harland and Wolff (Belfast, Northern Ireland/UK) in optimizing their single-point lifting capacity from the distinguished Samson gantry crane, and broke two world records in the process. The colossal undertaking took four years, and resulted in a custom beam designed to hoist over 700 tons from a single lifting point. In addition, Harland & Wolff and Modulift relied on Crosby for their shackles and Pfeifer for their slings. The new capability allows Harland and Wolff to manage a surge of ever-increasing business to their world- renowned shipyard. Photo courtesy of Modulift.
