Double Drum Remote Control American Winches

Initially five Kalmar straddle carriers will be used, operating between the ship-to-shore cranes and the stack. Later, Patrick expects to increase the number of machines and is planning to extend operations to Berths 8 and 9, meaning that unmanned straddle carriers could soon be handling 200,000 to 300,000teu per year at this particular three berth facility.

A level jaw clutch with a remote control is an integral part of the drive system. Planetary gear drives are utilised for high efficiency and maximum torque in limited space. The motor can be mounted in any position, vertical or horizontal, as determined by suitability in the space available.
