Introduction of Straddle Carrier

Straddle Carrier is a kind of heavy-duty transportation equipment widely used in ports and terminals.


Features of Straddle Carrier

Safety First

An optimized center of gravity, wide axle spacing, and three-wheel drive ensure outstanding load stability. The centrally located, ground-accessible cab offers 360° visibility, boosting operator confidence and safety. Intuitive controls minimize elevated work requirements, enhancing both safety and productivity.


Faster Turnaround

Containers are loaded and unloaded swiftly and securely at ground level. Compatible with 20ft to 45ft units—including high-cube, reefer, and flat-rack types—the cabin’s full visibility and rapid 2-minute trailer-to-ground transfer keep operations flowing and trucks on schedule.


Compact & Efficien

Weighing only 17 tons—far less than an 80-ton forklift—our carriers cut fuel consumption and ground pressure. Large puncture-resistant tires enable operation on rough or uneven terrain without costly site preparation.


Reliable & Energy-Saving

High reliability, reduced fuel use, and a lightweight structure drive productivity. Simplified maintenance and globally sourced standard parts help minimize operational downtime.


Customizable for Oversized Loads

Tailored configurations adapt to unique or outsized cargo, providing versatile solutions for diverse material handling challenges.

Robust Construction & Systems

  • Strong Structure

One-piece forged U-frame beams increase rigidity, reduce weight, and minimize wheel stress. Precision welding throughout enhances durability.

  • Advanced End Carriage

Motor-reducer-wheel drive and soft-start motors deliver smooth travel. A rugged design cuts wear and maintenance.

  • High Efficiency & Long Service Life

Built for demanding environments like ports and logistics hubs, these carriers offer extended life with minimal upkeep.

  • Heat-Resistant Protection

Thermal coating on the main beam ensures performance under harsh operating conditions.

  • Reliable Electrical Systems

Siemens/Schneider components ensure dependable performance. Inverters, PLCs, and fault monitoring enable smart, safe automation.

  • Custom Spreader Options

Easily handle 20ft, 40ft, and 45ft containers. Custom spreaders are available for specialized applications.


Features & Benefits

  • Efficiency

Combines the capacity of a yard crane with the agility of a pickup truck—ideal for fast, precise short- to mid-range container moves.

  • Flexibility

The straddle-type design allows easy navigation through confined and complex layouts.

  • Adaptability

Accommodates various container sizes and weights, adding versatility to port and terminal operations.


High-Performance Components

  • Rubber Tires

Durable, easy to steer, and shielded against damage.

  • Container Spreader

Equipped with four-leg wire rope slings for secure lifting, responsive control, and stable locking.

  • Crane Cabin

360° visibility with an air-conditioned, ergonomic workspace.

  • Winch Trolley

Smooth and quiet operation, rail-friendly movement, and reliable braking.


Optional Upgrades

  • 🔹 Enhanced performance with smooth acceleration and braking

  • 🔹 Extended lifespan through automated welding and NDT inspection

  • 🔹 Advanced drive systems with IP54/IP44 protection & Class F insulation

  • 🔹 Custom designs tailored to specific operational needs

Application Scenario

Applications of Straddle carriers

Straddle carriers deliver efficient material handling across multiple sectors:

  • Ports & Container Terminals

Handle lifting, transfer, and stacking of 20ft–45ft containers between vessels, trucks, and storage areas. Maximize yard density with multi-high stacking capability.

  • Logistics & Freight Hub

Accelerate cargo transfer across transport modes—rail, truck, and warehouse—including heavy items like machinery and steel coils.

  • Rail Yards & Inland Depots

Facilitate intermodal container transfers and support reefer container operations.

  • Industrial & Heavy Manufacturing

Transport bulky materials such as steel, timber, pipes, and automotive components.

  • Specialized Operations

Suitable for military logistics, disaster relief, and Ro-Ro terminal applications.


Why Choose Straddle Carriers?

Space-saving design for narrow working areas

All-weather capability for extreme temperatures and rough terrain

Automation-ready, compatible with GPS and intelligent control systems


RELIABLE & EFFICIENT CONTAINER HANDLING

Durable & Reliable Construction

Robust frame, high-flexibility tires, and interference-resistant electronics ensure stable performance even on uneven ground and under harsh conditions.

Remote Control Operation

Enhances safety and productivity with improved visibility and precise positioning. Eliminates the need for additional personnel in confined spaces.

Double Stacking & Low Clearance Handling

Features an adjustable spreader for multi-layer stacking and the ability to retract for low doorway clearance.

Rapid Dock Operations

Optional automatic top lift spreader adjusts from the cabin to handle all ISO containers, minimizing manual effort and operator exposure. Equipped with four twistlocks for secure handling—capable of moving up to 20 containers per hour.

Container Tipping Function

Enables bulk unloading with a container tilt function of up to 75°, ideal for food, scrap, ore, plastics, chemicals, and aggregates.

SOLAS-Compliant Weighing System

Integrated weighing system with ±1% accuracy provides real-time load measurement, serving as a mobile scale for faster operations compared to fixed alternatives.

Load Stabilization System

Retractable stabilizers minimize load sway and enhance safety during handling.

Easy Transport & Relocation

Designed for cost-effective transport via trailer or container for simplified redeployment.
