Lampson partners with Manitowoc EnCORE to refurbish a Manitowoc 2250 crawler crane for a second life in rental
- Lampson invested in the crane refurbishment due to its versatile, reliable, and proven track record in the rental market.
- Lampson’s refurbished Manitowoc 2250 is now ready to serve a wide range of industries, such as construction, infrastructure, oil and gas, marine, and nuclear.
- The refurbishment effort showcases Lampson’s expertise in heavy equipment engineering and restoration capabilities at its impressive Washington state facilities.
Lampson International refurbished one of its Manitowoc 2250 crawler cranes at its facilities in Pasco, Washington, collaborating with Manitowoc’s EnCORE team. The remanufactured crane is in Lampson’s rental fleet and will support its long-term, bare-rental business.
The 24-year-old Manitowoc 2250 was overhauled to its original specifications with some modern upgrades. The process included disassembly, sandblasting, magnetic particle inspections, a meticulous component rebuild, and a variety of other tasks. The refurbished crane features upgraded electrical systems, hydraulic plumbing, rebuilt pumps and motors, and a Tier 2-compliant engine.
The cab was rebuilt with a new computer board. In addition, ten updated control boards were installed throughout the cranes electrical system. The rotating bed received new bearings, seals, and shim packs, as well as rebuilt hoist and boom hoist planetary drives. The carbody received similar treatment, with a new swing bearing, rebuilt motors, and updated plumbing. The crane’s Load Moment Indicator (LMI) system was also upgraded.
“Compliance with Manitowoc factory standards was paramount throughout the process. By combining our decades of in-house expertise with Manitowoc’s industry-leading EnCORE program, we’ve transformed a reliable workhorse into a modern, efficient machine ready to tackle the most demanding projects,” said Bruce Stemp, Director of Quality Assurance at Lampson. “Our clients can feel confident in the quality and reliability of this newly rebuilt crane.”
Lampson International has been a Manitowoc partner since the 1960s. It has an agile, family-owned structure with an unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction. The company plans to refurbish additional Manitowoc cranes in its fleet in the future, maintaining its position as one of the leaders in innovation within the heavy equipment rental industry.
