Ship to Shore Cranes

Seamless Energy and Data Supply for Fast Cargo Turnarounds

Seamless energy supply is the backbone of every Ship-To-Shore Crane, and our KHD series motorized cable reels deliver the power these giants need to run non-stop. Capable of holding up to 400 meters of heavy-duty cable weighing up to 1.5 tonnes, our reels meet even the most demanding challenges. Robust motors and variable frequency drives (VFDs) ensure smooth, efficient performance every time. For lighter applications, our versatile BNA reels are the ideal solution. Equipped with protection systems such as Trenchguard, they keep your cables safe and intact, even when heavy-duty vehicles are in action. For lighter applications, our versatile BNA reels are the ideal solution.

Our cutting-edge festoon systems ensure your Ship-To-Shore Cranes stay connected with stable, rapid communication, even in extreme weather or emergencies. Their proven design guarantees uninterrupted operation, keeping your logistics running smoothly.

With intelligent control systems, our technology transforms each crane into a precision powerhouse. From precise container placement to automated spans, motorized festoon systems optimize boom movements, enhancing safety, efficiency, and performance across all operations.

    Tailored Solutions for You:

    • Cable Reels: The KHD Series motor-driven cable reels are perfect for main power and spreader applications on STS cranes. They provide robust performance with powerful motors and a cable-friendly variable frequency drive (VFD). For applications without VFD requirements, the BNA Series reels offer a reliable alternative.
    • Our Cable Protection System for motorized cable reel installations is a robust solution, designed to protect power supply cables in demanding environments like container terminals.
    • Our Festoon Systems are ideal for electrifying trolleys on crane booms, providing a proven solution that continues to operate even in emergency mode.

    Rubber Tired Gantry Cranes

    Efficient, Reliable, and Future-Ready RTG Operations

    In fast-paced shipping terminals, RTG Cranes play a critical role in moving containers efficiently between dockside, trucks, and storage areas. Traditionally powered by diesel generators, RTGs can also be converted to electrified RTGs (eRTGs), significantly reducing CO₂ emissions and operating costs. We offer a range of electrification methods, including cable reels, conductor rails, and battery systems, which align with green port initiatives. These solutions maximize uptime, reduce energy losses, and help terminals achieve a cleaner, future-proof port infrastructure.

    Reliable, high-speed data exchange keeps crane operations synchronized, reducing response times and preventing bottlenecks in port logistics. Our advanced data transmission systems enable smooth and secure data transfer between cranes, terminal operators, and automation platforms, ensuring seamless coordination and precise container handling.

    Automation is revolutionizing RTG operations, making them more efficient, safer, and cost-effective. As terminals move towards electrification and automation, uninterrupted data transmission and efficient power management play a key role in optimizing crane performance, increasing throughput, and reducing operational downtime. 

      Tailored Solutions for You:

      • KHD Series Cable Reels provide a proven solution for RTG crane electrification, featuring a powerful motor and a cable-friendly variable frequency drive (VFD) for efficient energy management. When no VFD is required, BNA Reels serve as a reliable alternative.
      • To maximize operational flexibility, Battery Solutions enables fully electric RTGs with minimal yard infrastructure investment while supporting decarbonization efforts.
      • Conductor Rail Systems ensures a continuous and efficient power supply for RTGs with frequent block changes and extensive travel.
      • Festoon Systems are the preferred choice for cross-travel electrification, offering a reliable and well-established solution for RTG crane operations.

      Mobile Harbor Cranes

      Innovative Energy and Data Systems for Flexible Cargo Handling

      Mobile Harbor Cranes (MHC) are a versatile solution for bulk material handling terminals and smaller ports without an STS crane. These Jib Luffing Cranes are mounted on a portal, barge, or pedestal, adapting to various operational needs. Traditionally powered by diesel generators, they are increasingly transitioning to electrification, reducing CO₂ emissions and operational costs. 

      Our motor-driven cable reels are the preferred electrification solution, providing a continuous and reliable power supply to support crane operations. Designed for demanding environments, they ensure maximum uptime, reduce maintenance efforts, and enhance energy efficiency. By eliminating the need for diesel generators, cable reel systems contribute to cleaner and more sustainable port operations while maintaining the high performance required for continuous loading and unloading cycles.

      The shift toward electrification is redefining Mobile Harbor Crane operations. Reliable power transmission ensures smooth performance, lower emissions, and long-term cost savings, making our energy transmission systems the optimal solution for modern, environmentally conscious terminals.

      Tailored Solutions for You:

      • Motor-Driven Cable Reels, such as the KHD and BNA Series, enable efficient power supply for Mobile Harbor Cranes, supporting port decarbonization while adapting to quay changes.
