SSL will primarily use the crane to accelerate container handling throughput, and its maximum lifting capacity of 100 tons offers new options for general and project cargo, with 40 tons more capacity than the existing Konecranes Gottwald HMK 170 E mobile harbor crane delivered in 2011.\n\nThe model has a maximum working radius of 42 meters and hoisting speeds of up to 120 meters per minute, and it incorporates the digital tools and smart features that support operational efficiency across the Generation 6 range.\n\n\"The new crane combines the speed and lifting capacity we need to maintain productivity with a compact size that suits our operations in Bermuda,\" said Randy Rochester, CEO of SSL. \"Our positive experience with the earlier-generation crane, together with Konecranes' strong support over the years, gave us the confidence to make this investment.\"\n\nAlan Garcia, Vice President Regional Sales Americas at Konecranes Port Solutions, said: \"The aim now is to build on this order by bringing the ESP.4 to other port operators around the world.\"\n\n## Konecranes' 2025 Sales and Order Intake\n\nAccording to akta.pro [company records](https://akta.pro/company-data), Konecranes reported group sales of EUR 4.2 billion in 2025, as stated in its financial statements. Order intake grew 9.7% to EUR 4,389.3 million in 2025, and free cash flow reached a record EUR 529.6 million in 2025.\n\n## Earlier Konecranes Orders and Launches\n\nOn October 17, 2026, Simply Wall St reported that Eurogate Terminal Solutions ordered four automated stacking cranes for its Wilhelmshaven facility, with an option for four more at Hamburg. On October 15, 2026, news.cision.com reported that Konecranes launched its Portal AI Assistant globally for Industrial Service & Equipment customers, enabling quick identification of equipment and service needs. On October 23, 2026, news.cision.com reported that Konecranes' Q3 2026 order intake was EUR 1.01 billion, down 12% year-on-year, while net sales rose 11.4% to EUR 1.10 billion.\n\n## Konecranes' 2027 Reporting Dates\n\nKonecranes will publish its annual report by February 26, 2027, and interim reports on April 28, July 20 and October 22, 2027, according to news.cision.com.
