Compliant, reliable and safe

To achieve environmental compliance, maximise your uptime and ensure safe operation we have invested heavily in research, design and development.

For clean fresh air and a clean port environment, we understand you need to comply with strict environmental regulations to eliminate dust emissions and spillage. Our innovative engineering solutions will help you achieve and maintain compliance.

You can keep your downtime to a minimum with equipment which is easy to service with the backup of a technical support team and parts when you need them.

We are committed to ensuring the safety of you and your staff with equipment which is designed to be safe to operate and easy to maintain.

We export to the world

Wherever you are in the world, we can service your requirements. Our proximity to Port of Tauranga, New Zealand’s largest and busiest port, enables us to ship your equipment and parts directly to you.

Page Macrae Engineering are committed to environmental protection and the principles of sustainable development. We have recently partnered with Green Marine, a voluntary environmental certification programme for the North American marine industry.

DUST CONTROLLED
DISCHARGE HOPPERS

Enviro-Max 50, Enviro-Max 50e, Enviro-Max 70

When you need to maximise productivity, protect the environment and keep people safe, we have the expertise and solutions.

From the ships hold to the truck, wagon or conveyor, when you are discharging product, minimising dust and containing spillage is a priority. Our hoppers combine new and proven technologies, providing solutions that satisfy your environmental, safety and productivity needs. They are designed to handle a variety of bulk products from cement clinker to mineral concentrates.

Building upon established product design, we use a rigorous consultation process to ensure your requirements are met. We’ll work closely with you, your operating staff, port authorities and other stakeholders to provide a solution to your cargo handling needs from ship to shore, industrial stockpiles or during trans loading to truck or rail.

Our hoppers are operating with outstanding success for port operators, stevedores and maritime logistics companies in many locations throughout New Zealand, Australia and Peru.

  • Low operating cost
  • High productivity
  • High digging capacity

Mechanical Wire & Chain Grab

When you need to keep your operating costs to a minimum while maintaining high productivity and digging capacity, the Page Macrae Engineering Mechanical Wire or Chain grab provides the solution.

A low centre of gravity allows the grab to be operated on steep cargo profiles without rollover, allowing for a safe, more productive discharge.

For difficult to handle cargoes such as soda ash and fertiliser, the overlapping blade seal and serrated bucket teeth minimise product loss and dust emissions, making the grab an ideal solution.

Port operators, stevedores and maritime logistics and mining companies in Australia, New Zealand, New Caledonia have entrusted our grabs since 1993.

  • Low operating height and high digging capacity reduces cycle times
  • Maximise uptime in locations where ship height, tides and crane configuration can affect productivity
  • The power of hydraulics maximises digging performance

GRABS

Diesel Hydraulic Grab

Safe, reliable and compliant with infinite control

Now you can have the versatility of a conventional remote release grab with the infinite control of a diesel-hydraulic system. Radio remote control operation allows you to maximise productivity in an environment where dust emission concerns are high.

Our diesel hydraulic grabs are suitable for discharging a wide range of products including finely textured products like soda ash to high-density products such as mineral concentrates and clinker.

Our diesel-hydraulic grabs are designed to be reliable in the toughest conditions and will give many years of service.

They are being successfully used by port operators, stevedores and maritime logistics companies in Australia, South America, New Zealand and further afield.

LOG LIFTERS

The safest way to increase your bulk log loading productivity

Do you want to protect your staff from injury when loading bulk logs, increase your loading capacity and productivity at the same time?

The Page Macrae Log Lifter – SRTM and Page Macrae Log Lifter-MRTM allow you to safely load up to 32 tonnes of logs in one manoeuvre without needing any personnel in the hold of a ship to unclip wire ropes. This eliminates the risk of injury and saves loading time. Our customers have experienced significant efficiency gains – up to 50% reduction in load time – compared to traditional loading methods such as wire ropes and hooks or grapples.

Our Log Lifters have a simple maintenance schedule owing to the simplicity and ruggedness of the design, combined with fewer moving parts.

  • Page Macrae Log Lifter – SRTM  Utilising a single release mechanism, our flagship Log Lifter retains the wire ropes upon release readying it for the next loading manoeuvre.
  • Page Macrae Log Lifter – MRTM  Utilising a four and two hook release mechanism, this innovative multi-release design is ideal for loading scenarios where you require the wire ropes to stay in the hold for re-attachment when unloading at destination.

We are proud to supply Log Lifters to clients in port operations, stevedoring, port logistics and forestry from many countries across the globe including Canada, USA, Australia, Brazil, Uruguay and New Zealand.

Contact us now to discuss how our Log Lifters can help you improve the safety and productivity of your loading operations.

  • Self-levels containers
  • Suitable 20ft and 40ft containers
  • Diesel-hydraulic
  • Easy to operate
  • Safe and reliable

CONTAINER SPREADERS

Safe and efficient

When safety and efficiency is top of mind for loading and unloading containers, the remote-controlled Page Macrae Container Spreader provides the solution.

The diesel-hydraulic Container Spreader is purpose-built to automatically level containers with uneven loads – a sensor moving the ships hook connection along the spreader until the load is level. An onboard diesel-hydraulic engine generates its own power, eliminating the need of a connected system or a ship to shore power supply.

Manufactured from pressed, high-strength structural plate, the container spreader optimises the load capacity to weight ratio minimising operating load stress to help reduce cycle fatigue.

  • 12, 15, 25 and 30 Tonne options
  • Radio remote or manual release
  • Easy to operate
  • Safe and reliable

MULTI-LIFTERS

A safe, efficient way to load and unload pulp bales

You can safely and efficiently load and unload multiple bales of pulp with the remote-controlled Page Macrae Multi-Lifter. Designed to lift several pulp bales at once, your crane operator can safely release the load by remote control.

Manufactured from pressed, high-strength structural plate, the Multi-Lifter optimises load capacity and minimises operating load stress to help reduce cycle fatigue.

With 12, 15, 25 and 30-tonne options available, you can maximise your productivity with the multi-lifter best suited to your operation.
