Medical equipment handling in Nancy and throughout the Grand Est region requires advanced expertise, appropriate technical resources, and a thorough understanding of hospital constraints.

A 3T MRI handling operation: proven expertise

Among the recent flagship operations carried out by Rousselot Manutention is the installation of a 3 Tesla Philips MRI at Robert Debré Hospital in Reims. This type of project perfectly illustrates the high level of expertise required for handling heavy medical equipment—a skill that the company also deploys for its clients in Nancy and Meurthe-et-Moselle.

Technical characteristics of the operation

• MRI weight: 7,000 kg
• Complex access via a shaft, requiring millimetre-level precision
• 150-ton crane with counterweights, suitable for exceptional loads
