Global Rigging & Transport is proud to operate Cometto SPMT (Self-Propelled Modular Transporter) systems as part of our specialised fleet for heavy, oversized load movement.

 

These state-of-the-art transport modules are designed to handle the world’s most demanding transport challenges, delivering precision, power, and adaptability.

 

Key Features & Specifications:

 

  • Payload Capacity per Axle Line: Up to 48 tons (43.5 metric tons) depending on configuration

  • Modular Design: Expandable platform with 2-, 4-, 6-, and 8-axle line configurations

  • Drive System: Electro-hydraulic power pack units (PPUs) with remote operation

  • Steering: 360-degree electronic multi-mode steering (including carousel, crab, diagonal)

  • Platform Height: Adjustable from approx. 1,200 mm to 1,500 mm

  • Compatibility: Designed for synchronisation with multiple SPMT units for large-scale operations

  • Surface Conditions: Engineered for off-road, uneven, and industrial site conditions

 

Why SPMTs are Ideal for GRT

 

  • Modular Versatility: Perfect for portside crane sections, transformers, vessels, and mining assets.

  • Precision Handling: Full steer-by-wire control enables safe navigation through tight and complex paths.

  • Scalable Lifting & Transport: From 100 to over 10,000 tonnes with linked modular units.

  • Reduced Site Impact: Load distribution reduces ground pressure on sensitive or temporary surfaces.

  • Autonomous Deployment: Self-propelled systems eliminate the need for prime movers or trailers in most cases.

 

GRT Applications

 

  • Ship-to-shore crane removal and replacement

  • Heavy industrial transformer relocation

  • Mining haul truck and shovel assembly

  • Bridge beam transport and staging

 

Our Cometto SPMTs allow GRT to offer turnkey heavy transport solutions with unparalleled control and efficiency. Whether it’s a marine terminal upgrade, crane relocation or project cargo we bring your assets to the right place, on time and on spec.
