Sany Responds to Tokyo Electric Power’s Help Request
62m Sany Truck Mounted Concrete Pump Sent to Support Fukushima
Since the break out of Japan’s nuclear crises in Fukushima nuclear power station, the determination and the strong will of Japanese people have touched the whole world. In March 19th, Tokyo Electic Power Company (TEP), which runs the pant, sent help requests to China’s Embassy in Japan and Sany Heavy Industry, requesting Sany Heavy Industry provide its 62m concrete pump to support the water spraying operation in the nuclear plant. Sany has showed great concern at the request and responded that Sany would send its 62 concrete pump to TEP free of charge to help fight against the current crises. The equipment has left Sany head quarter in Changsha and is now heading towards Shanghai. It is estimated that the concrete pump will arrive in Japan on next Wednesday.
Receiving the request from Tokyo Electric Power
March 19th, a emergency mail from TEP president Masataka Shimizu has been sent to Sany Heavy Industry. In the letter, he wrote, “As we experienced a very severe earth quake and a huge tsunami on March 11th, 2011, we now has serious situation to cope with in our nuclear power plant. We certainly appreciate your kindest offer to send your product, Truck mounted concrete pump SY5502THB 62B to Japan free of charge. We would like to accept this offer and would like to use the truck mounted concrete pump SY5502THB in Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station. Thank you again and we anxiously wait for the pump to arrive.”
According to reports that TEP has been using equipments like fire truck, military helicopter, truck mounted concrete pump to spray water into the reactors, trying to cool them down and restart the reactors’ cooling system. TEP knew that Sany was the record holder for the concrete pump with the longest boom reach. TEP sent purchase inquiry of Sany SY5502THB truck mounted concrete pump to Sany Heavy Industry. After hearing the situation in Japan, Mr. LIANG Wengen, chairman of Sany Heavy Industry promised that Sany would give its 62m concrete pump to TPE free of charge and was willing to help Japanese people fight against this crises.
According to YANG Zhi hua, the vice general manager of Sany Overseas, “the 62m concrete pump will mainly be used in the water spraying operation for the No.4 reactor. The reactor is 46 meters high and the concrete pump has to keep a 14 meters distance from it. Sany’s 62m truck mounted concrete pump is just the one that meet such requirement.”
In 2007, Sany 66m truck mounted concrete pump made the Guinness Record as the concrete pump with the longest boom range. Merely two years later, Sany refreshed its own record with a 72m truck mounted concrete pump. Now Sany Heavy Industry is still the holder of this honor.
The booming technology is the key technology for the manufacturing of truck mounted concrete pump. Before, the technology was controlled by American and German Companies. After years of research and development, Sany Heavy Industry managed to develop China’s frist truck mounted concrete pump. After ten years’ of development, Sany’s boom length for concrete pump has incresed from 37m to 72 m. Sany now has the largest manufacturing plants for truck mounted concrete pump and is recognized and trusted by the customers as the leading brand in the concrete machinery industry.
A brand with a history in international operation
It was not the first time that we saw Sany’s appearance in international operation. In October 2010, Sany SCC4000 crawler crane joined the rescue of trapped Chilean miners and was called “the king of cranes in China”. Sany crawler crane was one of the two rescuing equipment on site and was the only equipment from Asia. HAO Heng, Sany’s service engineer was the only rescuer from Asia. The rescue operation was succsessful and all trapped miners were saved and unharmed. In the operation, Sany’s quality products and service left very good impression to the local people made the world know the power of “made in China”.
“The reason why Chile chose Sany in their rescue plan is that Sany has a fame for its high qulity products and first class service. Japan is a country famous for its construction machinery products. This time, TPE chose Sany showed their trust for Sany’s concrete pumping products” said by a machinery expert.
As a international company, Sany never forgets it responsibility for the society and global community.
