gantry crane is a good job

Tower Crane Op from Canada here. What country is this? and have you ran cranes outside the docks or just all dockyard work?

Wow, that extra step of stopping at platform adds time. Simi auto operation?

@shizette 2 ай бұрын

Fully a conventional terminal. No robots yet. In the making though….

@shizette 2 ай бұрын

The pin-stop does add time though. It does depend on how quick te pinmen are.

@@gabrielcontreras3993 it’s alright. I’ll still average around about 33 moves per hour. When were loading or discharging in the holds it goes a lot quicker. Especially because we can use all 5 lanes under the crane. We dump them into the street. No bomb carts at this terminal.

Wow, that travels much faster than I expected. There doesn't seem to be much swing to deal with though.

@shizette 4 ай бұрын

It travels quick enough, wouldn’t mind a bit more speed though 🤣. When discharging the hatch covers I usually control sway a lot more neat then when I’m discharging or loading containers.

@@shizette Strange. Are the containers not heavier? Making slower swings?

@shizette 4 ай бұрын

@@jimmywebb4130 I’ve had hatchcovers that weigh 45 tons. Containers are usually up to about max 37 tons. We do handle twin containers (2x20ft). These can weigh up to 65tons. That’s the max lift capacity of the twin-spreader. The swing is as big as you make it. The weight really doesn’t matter.

Do you have a view of you loading containers on deck from shoreside to seaside instead of sea to shore? Would like to see a view of you doing that. One of the fastest operators I've seen!

@shizette 4 ай бұрын

That’s quite unconventional mate. We usually only load from sea to shoreside. That’s how we get the containers from the planning under the crane. We rarely do load from sea to shore though. But if such a situation were to occur then I’ll capture it for you and post it. Thanks for watching!

@jix177 5 ай бұрын

One of the quickest crane videos I've seen! Can you tilt the grab so that one end of the container touches down before the other, or is it always basically horizontal?

@shizette 5 ай бұрын

We can trim/list/skew. All withing certain parameters though. I do prefer keeping the beam horizontal though.

@stephenwalton8507 5 ай бұрын

Is that a scale you land on first?

@shizette 5 ай бұрын

No that’s a intermediate stop, so the pin men can add twistlocks in each corner pocket. After adding these, I’m able to stack the containers on top of each other. We do have a scale, but that engages once I pick up the container for the first time.

How are the straddles lining up the boxes on the plum? Lazer/light system? We use a lazer system that works off stickers placed on the straddles but we mostly use chalk marks on the concrete as they’re more accurate. Your strads seem to be nailing it down to the inch.

@shizette 5 ай бұрын

It’s with a laser/light system. Not every cranes system is perfect though. Here we work with lasers on the cranes and reflectors on the straddles.

@crashtestcal6484 5 ай бұрын

@@shizette sounds similar to what we use. Even with chalk marks, our strad drivers make me use side-shift all the time, even the occasional long travel.

@xuanquangngo2366 6 ай бұрын

How can the crane place the container correctly when the space is tight? It fully depends on the skillful operator or there are some tools supporting them.

@shizette 6 ай бұрын

No tools really. We just need to eyeball it and put in in place.
