Syncrolift System / Package
Syncrolift® Shiplift Systems
Shiplifts that raise vessels from the smallest up to above 30,000 tonnes out of the water and transfer them to shore-based dry berths.
Description
A Syncrolift® shiplift is a structural platform driven by a row of synchronized hoists. It lowers below the waterline so a vessel can float above it, lifts the vessel vertically and transfers it to a shore-based dry berth, as an alternative to a graving dock, floating dock or slipway. Lloyd's Register classifies shiplifts as Mechanical Lift Docks. Syncrolift has built over 240 shiplifts worldwide.
Key features
- Capacity from the smallest vessels to ships above 30,000 tonnes
- Rigid Platform Shiplift: fully welded platform developed in the 1980s that maintains support if a wire rope breaks; recommended for newbuilds
- Articulated Platform Shiplift: original hinged design from 1958, still serviced by Syncrolift
Applications
Docking and launching of naval and commercial vessels at ship repair and newbuilding yards, combined with transfer systems to serve multiple dry berths.
