The Genius Techniques Engineers Found to Tightly Secure Massive Container Ships

[@AlanTheBeast100]

Always love a 5 minute video packed into 15 minutes.

[@gdshiplashing8239]

Also thanks for crediting me for the clips you used. I only make videos to help new people to the industry and am glad to see it also used in the way you did.

[@thehark6247]

kudos to the little mentioned humble stevedore. His job is deceivingly dangerous, even deadly at times, i know the feeling. Trust me, 30 yr steel rigger/climber.

Whole world economy relies on containers transport and we still have some dangerous and old schools solutions, this is amazing. And we want go to Mars.

[@innercityprepper]

This was a cool video, I enjoyed the "how it's made" feel of the twist lock maintenance section.

[@jamielee9350]

I will call BS on this bit ... we had some twist locks that never got maintained, apart from a squirt of oil every 6 months.

[@jknight441]

I operate the cranes most of the time can’t unload the containers because the twists locks on most ships are over used falling apart

[@c.m.7037]

Interesting! Props to the workers that help us get our stuff!

[@ashley2108]

We use to do this in 3 man teams. Trust m,e, ships do not look this pristine! They are rusted oily and freaken dangerous. two high lashing bars are very heavy and you have to balance them and watch your footing and keep and eye on the penguin (hook you have to insert into the conttianer) it needs to attach to.. Broken foot herniated disks and fracture hip, also dislocated shoulder. Once your body is destroyed, you are then fired and left for dead.

Twistlocks is such a genius tool that tightly secures containers,the maintenance is outstanding 👏 👌

[@qa1e2r4]

Why is he cleaning almost brand new perfectly clean "demo" twist lock? He should be cleaning the old and dirty one first!!! Also how many he can clean with such non-specific equipment? A boat have how many of these? Hundreds maybe thousands? Will he be able to clean a full set by his retirement? He does one in 5-6 min each container needs 4 so 30min per container so 16 containers in a 8h day. 15000 containers on avarage as per google so for him to do a full ship he needs almost 3 years for a full rotation....

[@abdul-qf2fe]

@qa1e2r4 it's only a demo pal😎

[@Pocketfarmer1]

@@qa1e2r4quite right .the demo is complete bs. I work on a tug that regularly moves barge loads of containers. The only maintenance those locks got was getting washed when they were float tested.

[@redpug5042]

some people talk really slowly to increase the video time. This just straight up adds space between sentences. I swear the voiced audio can't be longer than 5 minutes.

[@psoon04286]

Have always been curious how stacks of containers stay secured on ships. Well illustrated and explained👍👍

[@firstlast1047]

I had occasion to be on a container ship while it was loading. The two lashers were incedible. Working in unision, they applied the lashings without falling behind. The noise was deafening, very loud. I wonder how a person would know if a stack was collapsing. I discovered, during the short time i was on deck, there was a distinct noise pattern indicating a successful placement. Also, the ship's crew, every 2/3 days, while the ship is underway, are required to inspect lashings and remove the slack

[@JuanmanuelRiospuerta]

Muy buen video 😊

Awesome technology of container secure

[@nancyfernandez-wl1me]

Interesante estas técnicas geniales que los ingenieros pueden hacer

[@adriansue8955]

Who owns the hardware? all those thousands of twistlocks and lashing rods do they come with the containers? the ship? on loan from the dock? how do they keep track of them all so they get returned after use? or is it a communal thing?

[@FloGrelot]

Every ship provides their own pins. They usually have 10+ pin boxes that get unloaded when the ships arrives. Every pin that gets removed from containers goes in those boxes to be reused later for loading the ship then when it's all done the ship loads up the pin boxes aboard and does the same thing at the next port.

[@fr3dr02]

The gantry operator, she sure can work them sticks😮

[@argentum530]

All of those genius techniques and the darn containers still fall off in the middle of the ocean...

Twist lock aka cone. A longshoreman calls them cone’s. How do I know this I’m a longshoreman.

[@garymiller5937]

Looks like the lashers have a very dangerous job. 😮

[@tgood5527]

Most lasher only lash for like 10 years then do something else on the dock.

[@vijaykumardahisaria7325]

Very good

[@RhondaThibodeaux-r8b]

We are not called Stevedores. We are Longshoremen. Stevedores bring the ships into our ports and the Longshoremen do the main work. Without us the work won’t get done

[@armando_az1]

Moral of the story, twisty locks. 😂

[@samkrooo8017]

I remember working as a stevedore / lasher in Dubai port of jebel ali in a company called world security. it was hard-working job and bieng paid 900 dirhams a month plus overtime which is not even guarantee its comes to 1200 drm which is like 200 Us dollars pm, it was 2 years of hell and suffering u can't complain if you buy food u almost remains with nothing and the gulf summer heat was something else's working in those massive ships 😢

[@TheDavidlloydjones]

Corner locks provide "increased efficiency," when we haven't mentioned any efficiency yet, so it's not clear what's increased. It's automatic so there's no manual labour involved. We have no idea why the video shows that guy putting those castings in the slots in the corner of the container by hand.

What is this, a union operation? Who thought, "Wow this twist-lock maintenance sure is fast. What can I do to drag it out for a couple of shifts?" Freaking impact wrenches for speed and torque wrenches for safety.

[@tgood5527]

If used correctly not many containers will be lost overboard 😉

[@unicorns778]

This is not engineers product but century old technique to secure any items at sea. Only thing new improvised material that's it.

[@marvinhaagsma9177]

28000 rubber ducks disagree that this technique is secure.

[@MitchM240]

There is a great documentary about Stevedores. It’s called “ The Wire”.

[@RogerGarrett]

This seems like a perfect opportunity for an automated twist-lock insertion (and removal) system. When the overhead crane lifts the container off of the truck that's brought it into the port, the crane momentarily sets it down on top of an automated twist-lock insertion mechanism that instantly, safely, and with no human intervention, inserts the twist locks into the container. Similarly those twist locks can be removed at the destination port with a reverse system. It's just so incredibly inefficient to have people manually handling, inserting, and removing those locks.

[@buzz-es]

Automate.....

[@michaelmeichtry316]

The video does show and described a few automated systems... please review entire video.

[@davehann8178]

prevent theft? Every longshoreman watching this must be laughing his head off!

[@Deecups510]

Is the dude at 0:53 seriously walking right directly underneath the load? I worked around a lot of ships loading a lot of cargo and that is a HUGE no no. Nor would a sane person do it. Containers fall all the time, and you don't want to be anywhere near it when it happens.

[@rogerbrandt6678]

I hope lashers make more than crane operators. If not you are under paid.

[@kkfoto]

To call that *Genius* is surely an exxageration

[@DMSparky]

I like how there are giant unnecessary gaps in the narration just to make the video longer….

[@johninnc9893]

Interesting, but way too long. Should have been more like 7 minutes long.

[@rogerbrandt6678]

I bet within 3 months I can devise a system that saves 30% time loading ships.

[@johncraig9869]

Still, over a thousand containers a year are lost over board

[@ytzpilot]

I wouldn’t have a problem living in a shipping container home in a region prone to earthquakes, because they are designed to remain standing rolling around on a ship and high winds they would hold up very well in an earthquake

[@jcarlo331]

Check out the containers eroded lock loops , lol , twist lock pull it apart eventually, yea the twist locks are bombers but def not the containers connection loops .

[@andreweppink4498]

Dunno. AlI sounds good and is good. But there's GBux awaiting the man who comes up with a method for securing tail stax athwartships. So they don't keel over in bad weather with heavy rolling.

[@Formaldehydex]

Then explain why so many shipping containers end up in the ocean where they occasionally sink pleasure boats.

[@pahedkavlog8298]

Then buy all automatic twist lock if you dont want anymore powerman

[@paulleon4467]

😊😊😊

[@andrewhansen4092]

They don't fix or even care about the locks. All the ones I've used have been so worn out they barley did anything. They do not care about anything on these ships

[@aljock6927]

It didn't say this is a corporate safety video

[@DaveEtchells]

It never occurred to me before just how precise the crane operators have to be; they have to align the containers to within inches to get them to stack properly. Does anyone know if the crane has any systems that help with the final alignment?

[@brianluck84]

I'm trained in ship to shore cranes. We have controls that will allow us to skew the load in most directions for final alignment but it's still all sight and feel. Really isn't that hard. The hard part is doing it fast

[@DaveEtchells]

@@brianluck84 Wow, I’m mega-impressed. - And yeah, I could maybe do it given 30 minutes and a new set of glasses, but in the videos, they just seem to drop them in place.

The hard part is looking down all day. The floor is glass. The pay is good but good luck to your back.
