Einsatz eines Viergelenk-Portaldrehkrans im Hafenbetrieb

A recent installation of a four-link portal slewing crane at a major port facility showcases the crane’s efficiency and adaptability in handling bulk cargo operations. The client, a prominent logistics company, needed a crane that could optimize cargo handling speed while ensuring stability in a challenging marine environment. After assessing their needs, a four-link gantry slewing crane was selected for its structural advantages. This makes it ideal for heavy, repetitive loading and unloading tasks at the port.

The four-link portal slewing crane stands out due to its unique design. Unlike standard cranes, it operates with a four-link mechanism that enhances load distribution, allowing the crane to lift larger loads with increased stability. This design also minimizes sway, an essential feature for safe handling in windy conditions common at ports. In this case, the crane’s structure enables efficient lifting of containers and heavy cargo onto transport vessels. Compared to previous equipment, operating time has been reduced by nearly 25%.

Additionally, the crane’s elevated cab provided operators with an improved line of sight, enhancing maneuverability and precision. This was critical for the client, who required exact positioning when handling delicate cargo. The four-link portal slewing crane is also equipped with the most advanced control system. Accurate mobility and automation functions can be achieved, further improving productivity.

After six months of use, the logistics company reported significant improvements in operational efficiency and cost savings. The reasons are reduced maintenance requirements and energy consumption. This case demonstrates the advantages of four-link portal crane for heavy-duty port applications, making them a valuable asset in the modern logistics industry.
