Recently, RCI’s first self-developed
Ship to Shore crane ( STS) was successfully
delivered at RHP. It will be arrived at the customer port of Netherlands Rotterdam Short Sea Terminals B.V. ( RST). It
is the first one of the STS order, and the second one will be delivered in the
end of April.
RST project is RCI’s first project
in STS market, which include product design, manufacture, transportation,
installation, commissioning and delivery. This product is suitable for handling
20 ft, 30 ft, 40 ft and 45 ft containers. Rated lifting weight of 41 t, using
load car, forward extension distance of 37.5 m, can load and unload panamax
class container ship. Rear extension distance of 21m, gauge 48m, large rear
extension distance and gauge, in the absence of loading and unloading ship
operation, the equipment can be in the yard of container loading and unloading
car and container transfer operation, cart running speed can reach full load of
120 m / min, is 2 ~ 3 times the speed of the conventional STS cart. In fact,
the equipment takes into account the functions of shore container crane ( STS )
and rail container gantry crane ( RMG ), saving equipment investment costs for
users.
A number of techniques have been
used to improve handling efficiency and reduce maintenance costs.
1. The sling using eight rope anti-rolling winding,
reduce the sling acceleration and deceleration of the swing time. The
connection between the lifting appliance and the steel wire rope adopts a
special form, and the lifting appliance can be quickly replaced under the
condition of not using the lifting appliance to be mounted on the frame. The
crane has a fore-and-aft tilting function to ensure quick box grabbing when the
hull tilts.
2. The cab can move back and forth, to ensure that the
driver has a wider field of vision, improve loading and unloading efficiency.
Thirdly, that pitch drum adopt a multi-layer winding mode of le bus steel wire
rope, so that the diameter of the drum and the length of the drum are reduce,
the size of the machine room is reduced, the rope outlet angle of the steel
wire rope is smaller, and the service life of the steel wire rope is longer.
RST project is
of great strategic significance for the company to enter the STS market. Through
the active cooperation and unremitting efforts of all departments, the first
STS was successfully shipped and started sailing. It marked an important step
in the company's road to the port machine market. Believe we can do " we
delivery success together".
