MOLDE, Norway, January 17, 2024 – Axess Technologies will be delivering a 6.3T automatic crane to Moelven Van Severen (MVS), a combined mill located in Namsos, Norway. The mill includes both sawing, planning and surface treatment, and specialises in construction timber, planed wood and cladding.

The crane is set to be utilised at their sorting facility and planning mill, operating 24/7 in the warehouse. It boasts the versatility to run in automatic mode, or be controlled from the crane operator’s cabin, or be remotely operated from the control room via a screen. Its primary functions will include the efficient handling of cargo to and from production lines, as well as trucks.

“At present, there is no precedent for a fully automatic warehouse. This innovative solution will empower MVS to boost production capacity and optimise storage space, all without the necessity of constructing a new storage hall. We are thrilled to be acknowledged as an experienced crane provider and to work on this crane, which requires several adaptations from our existing model to achieve optimal functionality,” Rune Vabø, Sales Director at Axess Technologies said.

MVS is a division of Moelven, a Scandinavian industrial group that produces building products and systems for the construction industry.
