Move3D is independent from crane manufacturers and has been developed with the end-user in mind.

Electric dreams The system is now being rolled out across

Mammoet’s global operations, but the current version is not likely to be the last. With clients adopting more sophisticated digital technology, Move3D will adapt to continue to offer the best possible visualisation of a project as new techniques become available. Mammoet now has a best-in-class platform that can evolve as required to continue offering the most effective support for project planning and workflow optimisation. “It was important to us that Move3D offered the right compatibility with how our clients are using digitisation in their own work. An exciting aspect of the system is the ability to offer visualisations in VR. This means that a client can ‘walk’ around the project and see for themselves how we will perform a move. There is even the possibility to put yourself in the cab of the crane to simulate the specific actions involved,” says van Tiel. “We know this ability to view planned work in such detail will also have health and safety benefits – allowing potential issues to be identified and dealt with sooner in the process,” he adds. “Organisations across engineering, construction and maintenance disciplines are increasingly aware of the potential that digital transformation offers to discover efficient new ways of planning and delivering projects. Mammoet is proud to play a key enabling role in this process, using technologies such as Move3D to increase levels of productivity, cost-effectiveness and safety on site,” concludes van Tiel. b
