Intercontinental Engineering-

Manufacturing Corporation of Kan- sas City offers diversified engineer- ing and manufacturing for the ma- rine, construction, and military markets. For over 30 years, Intercon has been a leading supplier of heavy deck machinery and material-han- dling equipment for both commer- cial and military customers.

In June of this year, Intercon received a contract from the North- ern Division, Naval Facilities Engi- neering Command for the design and manufacture of one 40-ton por- tal crane and one 25-ton portal crane foor use at Naval Weapon

Stations in Yorktown, Va., and

Charleston, S.C. These cranes are rail-mounted, diesel/hydraulic-pow- ered, and will incorporate state-of- the-art control systems. Delivery is scheduled for the first quarter of 1991.

Production continues on ship- board cargo cranes for the Navy's

T-ACS auxiliary crane ship pro- gram. Each twin crane model

TG3637 permits single crane func- tion with 30-ton capacity at 121 feet, or dual mode function provid- ing 60-ton capacity at 121 feet.

Crane shipsets for T-ACS 9 and 10 will be delivered to NORSHIPCO,

Norfolk, Va., in the fourth quarter of this year. NORSHIPCO is han- dling the conversion of the crane ships for the Maritime Administra- tion. Intercon has produced 16 sets of twin cranes for the Navy's auxil- iary crane ships.

Intercon's participation in the

Navy's Underway Replenishment

Programs included the recent com- pletion of a NAVSEA multiyear contract for Highline, Cargo, and

Light Spanwire winches. These sin- gle and double drum units are stan- dard Navy configuration, electric/ hydraulic powered.

Recent orders for Intercon's pro- prietary winch systems include a contract from Foss Maritime for two shipsets of mooring winches to be installed on new self-unloading ore lighterage barges. The barges will provide seasonal service for the Red

Dog Mine in Northwestern Alaska beginning in 1990; Intercon's model

SD-150E was selected for mooring service. These units spool 1-1/2-inch diameter wire and are powered by 50-hp electric motors driving through triple reduction gear reduc- ers.

Recent workboat winch installa- tions include Intercon's SD-175 towing winch and two EVC-27 verti- cal capstans for the Panama Canal

Commission's new 100-foot dredge tender. A similar SD-175 towing winch was installed aboard Mobil's new tug M/V Mobil 2. The SD-175 is sized for 2,000 feet of 1-3/4-inch diameter wire and features double band type, self-energizing service brakes. This unit is just one of 28

Liebherr-Werk recently added the RHM-type mobile harbor crane to its full range of mobile harbor cranes. This new compact mobile harbor crane is especially designed for operation in inland harbors. The increased maneuverability and flex- ibility of the RHM-type mobile har- bor crane provides added advan- tages for river port operators.

Liebherr-Werk's LHM-type mo- bile harbor crane, which is used for container-, general cargo-, bulk ma- terial and unit load handling opera- tions, is popular in many seaports.
