Advanced steel components

Advanced steel components

The Vlassenroot Group specialises in the production of extremely large “advanced steel components”, produced to the finest possible tolerances.

The Vlassenroot Group is the world leader in laser-cutting, bending and welding high strength steel for booms, turntables and chassis of hydraulic telescopic cranes. The Vlassenroot Group is also a major international player in the production of special profiles for bridges, tipper trucks and oil tankers.

XXL

Our applications and our production process are characterised by being XXL in both size and complexity.
For example, The Vlassenroot Group delivers the hydraulic booms for one of the tallest telescopic cranes in the world. With a hook height of 132 metres, this crane was specially developed for the installation of wind turbines.

Precision

The Vlassenroot Group processes extremely large steel constructions with the utmost precision.
We drill holes with a centre distance of 5 metres to a tolerance of just 0.2 mm in heavy welded profiles. We produce sections for hydraulic telescopic cranes with a diameter of 1.5 metres and a girth tolerance of less than 4 mm.

Quality

At The Vlassenroot Group, quality monitoring, quality control and traceability are key terms in the complete production process. We represent your guarantee of quality and a tightly regulated workflow, qualified to the ISO 9000 standard.
We work according to the strictest quality standards and constantly strive to improve and optimise our production processes.
