Structural Diagram And Parameter Table

INTRODUCTION

A Ship-to-Shore (STS) Container Crane (also known as a Container Quay Crane) is a massive, rail-mounted gantry crane permanently installed along maritime container terminal wharves. It is designed to lift shipping containers directly between ocean-going vessels and quay-side transport vehicles (chassis/trucks or straddle carriers). Outfitted with an extendable boom arm and telescopic container spreaders (20ft 40ft, 45ft}, and twin/quad lift modes), it serves as the critical primary lifting equipment for container port import and export operations.

APPLICATION SCENARIO

[1] Container Terminals – Loading/unloading containers from ships to stacking yards.

[2] Intermodal Rail Yards – Transferring containers between railcars and trucks.

[3] Inland Container Depots – Stacking empty or laden containers for storage.

[4] Port Gate Areas – Processing truck entry/exit and container inspection.

[5] Reefer Container Handling – Lifting refrigerated containers with power supply connections.

ADVANTAGES

[1] High Stacking Density – Up to 6‑high stacking, maximizing yard storage capacity.

[2] Fast Cycle Times – High hoist/trolley speeds for efficient ship‑to‑shore transfer.

[3] Precise Positioning – Twistlock spreader with anti‑sway and automatic alignment.

[4] Durable for Marine Use – Corrosion‑resistant structure, weatherproof electrics.

[5] Flexible Power Options – Diesel‑electric or full electric with cable reel.
