One spreader. Single or twin lift.

In twinlift mode, the spreader lifts two 20 ft containers positioned end to end. Telescoping allows single-container handling in the supported sizes. A separating twinlift version can adjust the gap between the two containers; this is a model-specific option.

Fully electric

Electric actuators operate the spreader functions. The power supply, control interface and operating cycle are selected for the crane installation.

Hydraulic / electro-hydraulic

Hydraulic actuators operate the spreader functions, with an electrically driven hydraulic power unit where specified. Power supply, pressure and control connections are matched to the installation.

Capacity is confirmed for the complete crane–headblock–spreader combination, including spreader self-weight and the permitted load distribution. The selected model specification defines the supply; capacities visible in the photograph are not a rating for every model.

The right connection to your crane.

For an existing crane, start with its make, model and current spreader or headblock reference. We check the mechanical interface, available electrical supply, control signals, twistlock and landing indications, and required operating modes. STS applications and other container-crane installations are assessed individually.
