Types of Container Handling Cranes

Two types of container-handling cranes that are commonly used Ship-to-Shore (STS) cranes and Rubber-Tyred Gantry (RTG) cranes.

Ship-to-Shore (STS) Cranes

Handling and managing containers is no small feat, which is precisely where Ship-to-Shore (STS) cranes come into the picture. These engineering marvels are meticulously designed to operate and manoeuvre colossal ships with superior precision. Equipped with high-speed hoisting and trolley moving systems and cutting-edge automation, STS cranes ensure seamless container movement, reducing vessel turnaround times to a minimum. Our STS cranes come with features like extended outreach for wide-beam vessels, dual or multi-lift capabilities, and energy-efficient operations, boosting productivity & championing modern environmental standards.

Applications of STS Cranes
  • Loading and unloading containers on large cargo ships.
  • Supporting high throughput in busy terminals.
  • Working in combination with yard cranes to facilitate faster container handling.
Rubber-Tyred Gantry (RTG) Cranes

When it comes to transporting and stacking containers with flexibility and precision, RTG cranes are the most reliable choice. These rubber-tyred cranes offer excellent mobility, allowing them to move smoothly across various terminal layouts. Whether you prefer manual operation, semi-automated precision, or fully automated configurations, we provide RTG cranes that enhance container stacking and port operations.

Applications of RTG
  • Organizing and stacking containers in the yard.
  • Relocating and retrieving containers for ships, trucks, or trains.
  • Supporting high throughput in busy terminals.

Advanced Features

Advanced Hoisting & Anti-Sway System

A new reeving design integrates an effective mechanical anti-sway system, eliminating the need for electric control. The reduced rope load (16 falls) allows the use of smaller actuators for trim and skew, ensuring reliable and safe operation independent of the hoisting drive.

Fully Electric, Maintenance-Free Operation

Electric systems for trim, skew, and gantry wheel rotation minimise lubrication requirements and maintenance costs while extending component lifespan and reducing spare parts consumption.

Enhanced Operator Visibility

Optimised cab positioning, combined with superior anti-sway performance, provides clear and unobstructed visibility over a six-container stack, improving precision during stacking operations.

Optimised Gantry Design

A re-engineered horizontal drive layout ensures easy access, quick tyre dismounting, and simplified maintenance. Life-lubricated bearings and hinged paired tyres enhance durability and adaptability to varying ground conditions.
