Product transportation

Getting your product on-site

Through our global network of transport partners, Nemag supports fast and reliable shipping worldwide. This network allows us to offer dependable delivery at competitive conditions. For a seamless transport experience, FOB or CIF delivery terms can be arranged, including lashing and transport to the loading port.

When preferred, grabs can be shipped in a modular, disassembled configuration using container transport. This approach supports efficient logistics planning and can significantly reduce ocean freight and transport costs.

After arrival at the unloading port, Nemag supports customers with a structured approach to assembly. This includes a clear unloading plan, detailed assembly instructions and a practical assembly video. Assembly is straightforward and can typically be completed independently within one to three days. When required, Nemag can also provide on-site assembly guidance to support a smooth and efficient installation process.

Maintenance & Documentation

We help you maintain your products and reduce costs

Your new grabs should be easy to work with for more than just the approved operator. That is why Nemag provides an extensive Operation and Maintenance manual with every grab. This manual supports owners, authorised personnel and maintenance engineers with clear guidance on preparing, operating and maintaining the equipment.

The documentation includes clear descriptions and system overviews, safety guidance, installation instructions and operational guidance. It also covers maintenance schedules and procedures, transport and storage instructions, technical data and troubleshooting support. Appendices such as drawings, inspection forms and additional datasheets are included to ensure all relevant information is available in one structured and practical reference.

Designed to support safe and efficient maintenance

Central Greasing System

We understand your requirement for a safe working environment for your staff and our focus on productivity. This is why all Nemag grabs operate with a centralised greasing system.

Greasing all the moving parts is essential to reduce wear and to increase the product’s lifespan.

But lubricating multiple grease nipples can be a tedious job and sometimes a far reach. This system enables fast and safe greasing of the entire grab without dangerous climbing.

In short, a central greasing system improves your productivity and reduces your safety risks.

Lubrication details

If the grab was not in operation for an extended period, apply grease to all lubrication points before operation. Nemag grabs have grease nipple types 1-4” & 1-8”. The normal grease volume per nipple is 10 cc. Grease type and frequency can be found in your operation and maintenance manual. Your manual can be resent upon request.

Success stories

Trusted by operators worldwide

These customers successfully limit downtime through Nemag services & proper maintenance schedules combined with stock spare parts.

Parts for A lifetime

Components and spare parts

Spare parts and components are available or produced upon request. They can be ordered with your grab’s purchase and requested for the entire lifetime of your grab. Nemag strives to use grab components like bearings and plate materials which are internationally standardized and widely available. As a result, you can easily source your replacement parts locally without hassle.

While grabs with the lowest maintenance costs still need to be maintained, you can minimize downtime by keeping original spare parts in stock. We will happily provide you with the advised quantity of spare parts for every order. The spare parts list, including prices, can also be sent upon request.
