Ravenna Container Terminal commissions new container cranes

Ravenna Container Terminal (TCR) is this week celebrating the commissioning of its second new giant quay crane as part of an €8 million investment program. The Italian terminal is currently being expanded to accommodate 8,000 TEU vessels – a significant improvement given that the largest ships currently calling the facility have a capacity of 3,000 TEU The crane commissioning project was undertaken by OMG-MGM and Control Techniques (Emerson Group), in close cooperation with TCR’s technical department, and was completed in just over a year. The new cranes have an outreach of 17 containers across, 35.5 metres under spreader, and a lifting capacity improved up to 55 tonnes. Furthermore, the cranes cabins are both equipped with a dynamic control station, provided by Brieda Cabins, a technical solution designed to improve the ergonomic conditions for the crane operators. New electronic solutions will also provide a 30 percent energy saving, resulting in better operational performances and lower fuel consumption.
