Port container gantry crane

The port container gantry crane is a large rail‑mounted gantry crane (RMG) or rubber‑tyred gantry crane (RTG) specifically designed for handling intermodal containers at ports and container terminals. It features a double‑girder bridge structure, a trolley with a spreader (twistlock system), and a high lift height for stacking containers 4‑6 high. Lifting capacity typically ranges from 30t to 50t (single container) or up to 65t for twin‑lift configurations. Spans can reach 6‑8 container rows plus a truck lane. These cranes operate 24/7 in harsh marine environments, providing efficient container stacking, loading/unloading of trucks and railcars, and vessel operations.
