Multi Level Protection Program

Protect your crane 

Amco Veba’s MLP Program ensures all electrical and structural components, includin crane carpentry, hydraulic cylinder ros, fittings, hoses and piping, pins, hydraulic fittings, bolts, juntion boxes are able to meet the rigorous demands of our customer’s marine applications.

Because we understand the cost impact of service and downtime, all parts have been designed and selected for easy ease of maintenance and each crane component selected and designed for long life.

AMCO VEBA’S MARINE MLP PROGRAM encourages our customers to work with our field representatives and enigneers.
In selecting the most suitable crane protection level for the environment in which the crane will operated.

From the softer ambient conditions till the most severe and harsh humid salt ambient.

Thermal Metal Spray Process

Additional protection process available on ML2 and ML3.

Thermal Metal spraying is a surface coating process where a liquid metal alloy (zinc/aluminium) is sprayed onto the surface of the crane carpentry.

It provides the higher level of corrosion protection to ferrous metals and improve wear resistance in respect of ISO 12944 CX level granting more of 15 years lifetime.

This treatment includes:

  • Thermally sprayed coatings of zinc and zinc alloys
  • 120 micron zinc layer
  • Primer for filling up holes
  • Up to 144 months of resistance in CX exposure conditions, according to ISO 12944
