The marine and shipbuilding industries demand material handling equipment that performs reliably in some of the world’s harshest conditions. From shipboard operations to dockside logistics and inland fabrication facilities, cranes used in these environments must endure saltwater corrosion, extreme weather, and dynamic motion.
Ace World Companies designs and manufactures heavy-duty cranes and transfer equipment engineered specifically for marine and shipyard applications. All products are manufactured in our U.S.-based facilities, ensuring exceptional quality and service support.
MWhether on deck, onshore, or inside a fabrication facility, Ace offers custom cranes and transport solutions tailored to marine operations and shipyard logistics. Key applications include:
Perfect for open shipyard spaces and heavy lifting tasks, our gantry cranes offer lifting capacities of hundreds of tons. Double-leg and semi-gantry designs support shipbuilding, cargo handling, and section assembly with unmatched versatility.
Ideal for indoor applications such as repair bays and fabrication halls, overhead cranes provide controlled, high-capacity lifting—up to 500 tons—on precision rail systems. These cranes are essential for maintenance, part fabrication, and storage operations.
Mounted directly onto vessels, our shipboard cranes facilitate onboard logistics, including container handling, internal material transfer, and deck operations. Built with marine-grade materials and fail-safe braking systems, these cranes are optimized for safety and performance at sea.
Used both aboard cargo ships and in port terminals, our high-capacity gantry cranes include specialized spreaders to safely lift and position containers. Synchronized crane systems can accelerate turnaround and boost productivity at busy ports.
Complementing crane operations, our heavy-duty transfer cars efficiently move ship components, parts, and equipment across yards. Designed to reduce manual handling and streamline workflows, they improve operational safety and coordination.
Ace World Companies provides full-service material handling solutions, including the sales, installation, repairs, and modernization of cranes and parts for marine and shipyard industry cranes.
