Tire-type Container Gantry Crane (RTG) is specialized equipment used for loading, unloading, stacking, and transferring cargo in storage yards. Its core characteristic is reliance on pneumatic rubber tires for movement, eliminating the need for fixed rails.
I. Core Advantages
The following list summarizes its main advantages:
High Site Flexibility: No fixed rails required; can move and turn freely within the yard (including 90-degree right-angle turns and on-the-spot pivoting), enabling cross-channel operation and rapid repositioning.
High Space Utilization: Flexible layout and dense stacking effectively increase the number of container stack layers and overall yard utilization efficiency.
Diverse Power Options: Supports diesel generator sets, cable reel (grid power), lithium battery, or hybrid power, adapting to different site power supply conditions and environmental requirements.
Significant Energy Saving: Utilizes energy feedback technology in electric mode, recovering energy from lowering and braking operations.
Intelligent and Safe Operation: Equipped with systems like automatic trolley deviation correction, intelligent anti-sway, 3D anti-collision, load monitoring, and windproof anchoring, forming an active safety system.
Lower Operational Costs: Modular design facilitates maintenance; rail-free operation avoids track maintenance costs.
II. Main Application Areas
Container Yards and Port Terminals: The primary application, handling container loading/unloading from trucks, yard stacking (typically 3-6 layers high), and transfer operations.
Industrial and Logistics Sites: Used for lifting, transporting, and storing breakbulk cargo such as large structural components, hatch covers (stackable up to 4 layers), and steel materials.
Special Working Conditions: Suitable for sites with uneven ground, offering better ground adaptability than rail-mounted types; lightweight electric models are also used in sites with specific environmental or repositioning requirements.
