Powering a fully electric Jib Crane in demanding duty cycles
BACKGROUND
In June 2026, three of our team members - Anton Jonsson, Raphael Wölck and Rene Hamann - travelled to Norway for something worth the journey: a live look at PALFINGER MARINE's brand-new fully electric Jibcrane, Munin, in operation.
Seeing our technology in the field is always a moment of pride - and this visit delivered exactly that.
Across Munin's electric drive systems, multiple KFB motor mounted brakes from Dellner Bubenzer are at work. And on select models, our parking locking devices are adding an extra layer of mechanical security where it matters most: in remote offshore environments where reliability isn't optional.
SUMMARY
Palfinger's new electric Jib crane range represents a genuine leap forward for the marine industry - cleaner, quieter, and engineered for the long haul. Components built to handle harsh conditions and demanding duty cycles. Exactly the kind of application our solutions are designed for.
A huge thank you to the PALFINGER MARINE team for the warm welcome and for letting us get up close with the crane. These visits remind us why precision engineering matters - and what it looks like when everything performs exactly as intended.
