Container Terminal Handling
Equipment
Ahmed Tohamy
(STS)SHIP-TO-SHORE GANTRY CRANES
•Productivity is 24 per hour
•1 STS transfer to 1.7 RTG
•1 STS work with 6 terminal truck
•1 STS transfer to 1 reach stacker
•Single Lift
•20’ / 40’ / 45’ manual
•20’ / 40’ / 45’ telescopic
•Twin Lift
•• 2 x 20’ units per lift
•Often limited to handling MT containers
•Needs appropriate stows on vessel
(RTG) RUBBER TIRED GANTRY CRANES
•Productivity 18 per hour
•2 RTG transfer from 1 STS
•1 RTG work with 4 terminal truck
•High density stacking – selectivity issues for
•random import delivery
•Narrow roadways – sufficient for trucks and ITVs
•Needs ITVs – labor cost impact
•Can be semi-automated / automated
•Reduce demand for truck waiting areas at gate
RAIL MOUNTED GANTRY CRANES
(RMG)
•Productivity 30 per hour
•1RMG transfer from 1 STS
•Working in lane can't shifting
•Can work in two sides lift and right
•Work with 6 terminal truck
•High density stacking – selectivity issues for
•random import delivery
•Narrow roadways – sufficient for trucks and ITVs
•Needs ITVs – labor cost impact
•Can be semi-automated / automated
•Reduce demand for truck waiting areas at gate
(CCTI) CONTAINER LIFT TRUCKS
•Productivity 18 per hour
•1 CCTI transfer from 1 STS
•1CCTI work with 6 terminal truck
•Work with empty container only
•Work in MT container area
•Wide roadways – requires largest area
•Moderate density stacking
•Poor selectivity
REACH STACKER (RS)
•Productivity 20 per hour
•1RS can transfer from 1 STS
•1 RS work with 6 terminal truck
•Wide roadways – requires largest area
•Moderate density stacking
•Poor selectivity
STRADDLE CARRIERS
•Productivity 20 per hour
•Working as handling and transfer equipment
•Medium density stacking – good selectivity issues for
•random import delivery
•No roadways but needs interchange areas
•Lifts, carries, drops – no need for ITVs – labor cost
•Can be semi-automated / automated (Patrick's)
•Imports and exports can be mixed in stacks
•Increases area required for truck waiting at gate (less
•trucks in the CY)
