The previous E/R Overhead Crane installed onboard does not have a Slow Up/Down (low speed) function, which creates safety concerns during engine maintenance work. In particular:

· During Exhaust Valve replacement, the lowering speed is excessively fast, frequently resulting in damage to O-rings and sealing rings.

· During Piston overhaul work, the lack of fine speed control poses a significant safety risk to both personnel and equipment.

Considering that the E/R crane may be frequently required during the dry dock period, the modification is required to be complete during port stay to avoid effecting docking work. Although there are technical and scheduling challenges, we completed it efficiently without causing any delay or disruption to the docking schedule.

KLCSM CO.,LTD. intends to equip M/V SM SAMCHEONPO/ SM ROBERTS BANK/ SM SANTOS with this kind of modified E/R crane to ensure operational safety, maintenance efficiency, and handling precision.
