Come to booth 808 at Hydrovision 2023 and hear more about our innovations: Mjølner TRCM (fully electric, able to lift 2,000kgs) and our Gungnir TRCM – the World’s first fully Smart TRCM, using AI – and learn how we use AI to reduce maintenance cost and hours significantly! For more information: Email ak@enerquip.no or call: +47 4760 5560.

Enerquips is a Norwegian TRCM manufacturer. We have 135+ TRCMs installed globally – and not two of them are the same. We tailor each machine to each site.

Our TRCMs are named according to Norse mythology. Frøya, Loke, Odin, and Thor – cover all your needs, lifting from 250kgs to 3,000kgs.

We clean opposite of all excavator-based TRCMs:

clean OUTSIDE of intake first, remove all large floating logs etc.
clean TOP DOWN, BETWEEN bars, close gripper at bottom and then out and up. This way, cleaning is much, much more efficient!

Some fun facts:

All our machines are used while producing energy at full power!
No pressure on racks – except boom weight and water pressure!
Installation on elevated monorail possible – perfect for site where floods occur or where rails are not possible to install
Width of grippers “teeth” are fitted to openings between bars
TRCMs are equipped with an Absolute Encoder – TRCM knows its position on the rails all the time!
manual, semi-auto, fully automatic modes

…and the best? We are much lower in price than the big excavator-type machines!

Some Options for Thor TRCM

Cabin with Aircon and monitor for camera
Heating for rails
Soft starter for electric motor
Greater lifting capacity possible (3,000 kg+)
Winter program for frazzle ice removal
Cover for weather protection
Camera in claw for inspection under water
Full automation (activation linked to drop in water flow)
Joystick controls for operation (excavator type) from cabin

Note: Enerquip TRCMs are anchored in the rails, hence our TRCMs are much smaller than others.

Remote control with two multifunction sticks
where up to six functions are operated simultaneously.
Desired function speed can be controlled directly
from the Remote Control
