The pipe spreader has the power to handle a wide range of pipe lengths and diameters.
The spreader is powered by an onboard diesel engine and operated by a wireless remote control.
The RAM 4220 model has three sets of telescopic beams with end manipulators which move along a longitudinal axis, enabling the spreader to handle pipes between 1150cm to 1300cm in length.
Lateral adjustments and removal of the central beam allows the crane operator to handle three pipes with diameters between 32 to 60 inches in diameter, two pipes between 32 to 60 inches and a single pipe between 16 to 60 inches.
The spreader’s mechanical sensing assemblies coupled with LED indicators reassure the crane operator that pipes are securely clamped and ready for hoisting.
Purpose-built padding rings located on the end manipulators and additional padding on each of the spreader’s pipe contact points help prevent pipe damage during the handling process.
Monitoring sensor status and fault-finding information is carried out via a diagnostic panel providing maintenance personnel troubleshooting information.
As the telescopic beams clamp the pipes, there is no danger of the pipes falling when lifting. In addition, the spreader’s mechanical sensors and LED indicators signal the crane operator to notify when the pipes are securely clamped.
Due to its design, the spreader can handle a number of pipes at the same time; it can also retract and extend depending on the geometrics of the pipe. Moreover, with the spreader’s memory positioning system (MPS), the spreader will log the positions of the telescopic arms into the system’s memory. Thus, MPS can store a landside and a seaside position, enabling the crane operator to return to either of these positions.
At the end of each telescopic beam is purpose-built padding rings to prevent the pipe from being damaged in operation.
| Lifting Config | Pipe Length (m) | Pipe Diameter (inches) |
| 1 beam | 11.8m-12.7m | 16-60 |
| 2 beam | 11.8m-12.7m | 31-60 |
| 3 beam | 11.8m-12.7m | 16-31 |
