FAQ
1. What is the main difference between an RMG crane like this one and a Rubber-Tired Gantry (RTG) crane?
An RMG crane runs on fixed rails, offering higher operational speeds, greater stability, and better suitability for automation. An RTG crane runs on rubber tires, providing more flexibility to move between container stacks but is generally slower and manually operated.
2. Can this crane handle two 20ft containers at once?
Yes, it can be equipped with a twin-lift spreader attachment that allows it to lift and handle two 20ft containers simultaneously, significantly increasing productivity.
3. What kind of foundation is needed for this crane?
The crane requires a strong, reinforced concrete foundation with embedded steel crane rails (e.g., P43, QU70, QU80) to support its weight and the dynamic forces of operation. We provide detailed specifications for the foundation and rail installation.
4. How is the crane powered?
RMG cranes are typically powered by electricity through a cable reel system or a busbar conductor system installed along the runway, making them more environmentally friendly than diesel-powered RTGs.
5. Is it possible to customize the crane’s specifications?
Absolutely. Weiyuan specializes in customizing cranes to meet specific client needs. We can adjust the lifting capacity, span, lifting height, and control systems to perfectly match your terminal’s requirements.
