Specification Rubber Tyred Gantry Crane

Performance of Rubber Tyre Gantry Crane with Lower Fuel Consumption and Lower Emission Option

The classic RTG features an all-electric trolley, low-emission diesel powertrain, spreader, and wheel turning. Because no hydraulics are used, maintenance is easy and straightforward as there are fewer components that need to be inspected and maintained. Its modular design makes it easy to tailor the crane to meet the specific needs of any terminal operations.

Even greater savings can be achieved in emissions and fuel consumption with an optional VSG (Variable Speed Generator) that automatically optimizes the RPMs to the required power. Compared to similar RTGs on the market, this innovative technology is capable of cutting fuel consumption in a range from 17% and up to 33% on an annual basis.

Rubber Tyred Gantry Cranes can also be used for the efficient stacking of containers. These mobile RTGs were originally powered by diesel generator systems, however, in recent years there has been a definite trend towards electrification. For this reason, motorized cable reels are essential components in order to retrofit Rubber Tyred Gantry Cranes with the aim of considerably reducing overall fuel consumption. Reducing the use of diesel generators is not only a better environmental option but has become a growing economic solution for port operators.

What are the Advantages of Rubber Tyres Gantry Cranes?

• Due to lower energy consumption, they are cost-effective solutions

• No significant time loss due to refueling

• Better efficiency than diesel generators

• Protection against volatile oil prices

• Reduced downtimes for maintenance

• Significant CO2 emission reduction

• Environmentally friendly

Rubber tired gantry cranes are able to reduce the loading and unloading times of large container storage areas such as container yards. RTGs are operated by onboard drivers with the main purpose of loading containers from terminal tractors or trucks to container block areas and vice versa. Standard RTGs are powered by diesel engines for travel and lifting. Data transmission and energy to the trolley are provided by energy guiding chains or festoon systems.

Depending on the type of operation, there are different types of Gantry Cranes

available that are suitable for any type of terminal operation. These cranes can also be custom designed to suit the requirement of customers.
