What is an RTG in port?

In the world of lifting equipment, RTG cranes (also known as rubber tire gantry cranes) have revolutionized the way containers are handled in ports and container terminals. HY Crane Co. Ltd, a world-leading manufacturer and service provider of lifting equipment, has been at the forefront of this innovation for over 60 years. Their professional high-end lifting equipment and advanced material handling solutions have paved the way for the development of RTG cranes, which have become essential machinery for container handling in yards.

The RTG crane is a large terminal gantry crane specifically designed to load and unload intermodal containers from container ships. Unlike traditional gantry cranes, RTG cranes are equipped with rubber tires for greater maneuverability and flexibility in container handling operations. This innovative design significantly increases the efficiency and productivity of the container terminal, making it an indispensable asset for the logistics and shipping industry.

One of the main advantages of RTG cranes is their ability to be powered by electricity, making them cleaner and more environmentally friendly than diesel-powered cranes. This not only reduces carbon emissions but also contributes to more sustainable and environmentally friendly operations at the container terminal. In addition, RTG cranes have greater lifting capacity and higher mast travel speeds, allowing them to handle larger volumes of cargo in less time.

The development of RTG cranes has changed the landscape of container handling, providing a more efficient and streamlined way to manage the flow of cargo in ports and terminals. With advanced technology and superior capabilities, RTG cranes have become an important part of modern logistics and supply chain management. As demand for containerized cargo continues to grow, the role of RTG cranes in facilitating smooth and efficient operations becomes increasingly important.
