Port Cranes / Henan Mine Crane
Ship-To-Shore Crane (STS)
Transfer containers between ship and quay with an STS crane selected for the berth and vessel envelope. Define the lifting-appliance arrangement, outreach, rail position and handling cycle.
Define the total suspended load, duty and site conditions for your project.
Technical specifications
Check the load.
Plan the configuration.
Parameters and equipment options are matched to the application and confirmed in the technical proposal.

| Lifting Height (Below Rail) | 15-30 m |
| Hoisting Speed | 60-150 m/min |
| Trolley Speed | 120-240 m/min |
| Gantry Travel Speed | 20-45 m/min |
| Working Class | A8 |
| Working Temperature | -20 ~ +50 |
| Protection Class | IP54/IP55 |
| Control System | PLC + VFD |
| Power Supply | 380-690V, 50/60Hz |
Final parameters, dimensions, wheel loads and supply scope follow the approved project specification.
Application & operation
Matched to the handling task.
Container berths
Coordinate the spreader and boom envelope with the declared vessel range.
Quay transfer operations
Match trolley coverage and clearances to waterside and landside handling positions.
Selection considerations
Start with your operating conditions.
Load & lifting arrangement
Specify container sizes, spreader mode and gross suspended loads. Include lifting-appliance weight and the required lifting positions.
Site & available space
Provide vessel envelope, boom outreach, quay rails and clearances. Coordinate the installation interfaces with the available site drawings.
Duty & control sequence
Define handling cycle, operating winds and terminal control interfaces. Identify the required movements and control interfaces in the enquiry.
Configuration comparison
Compare related lifting arrangements.
| Crane arrangement | Handling configuration |
|---|---|
| Ship-To-Shore Crane (STS) | Transfer containers between ship and quay with an STS crane selected for the berth and vessel envelope. Define the lifting-appliance arrangement, outreach, rail position and handling cycle. |
| Rail-Mounted Container Gantry Crane | Handle containers along a fixed yard runway with a rail-mounted container gantry crane. Coordinate the spreader, stacking geometry, rail layout and transfer positions around the terminal operation. |
| Rubber Tyred Gantry (RTG) | Use a rubber-tyred gantry for heavy handling where the operating layout requires a mobile tyre-supported arrangement. Define the load, steering modes, route and ground conditions for the project. |
| Portal Harbor Crane | Handle cargo with a portal harbor crane configured for the working radius and lifting appliance. Define hook or grab operation, quay interfaces, outreach and the operating cycle. |
Operating protection & lifecycle support
Plan beyond the equipment.
Operating protection
Define the permitted load cases, operating limits, travel protection and lifting-appliance interlocks for the declared cargo-handling modes.
Installation & commissioning
Coordinate runway or pavement interfaces, operating clearances, power arrangements, assembly access and the terminal commissioning requirements.
Inspection & spares
Plan inspection and maintenance of boom and trolley mechanisms, spreader interlocks and quay travel equipment. Agree service access, documentation and the required spare-parts scope.
Questions before the order
Clarify the details
that shape the crane.
What information is needed for a ship-to-shore crane (sts) quotation?+
Provide container sizes, spreader mode and gross suspended loads; vessel envelope, boom outreach, quay rails and clearances; and handling cycle, operating winds and terminal control interfaces. Include drawings and the project destination when available.
How should STS lifting capacity be stated?+
Specify the container and spreader operating mode and whether the rating is stated under the spreader or includes the lifting appliance. Define any single, twin or other proposed handling modes separately.
What installation and support scope should be agreed?+
Coordinate runway or pavement interfaces, operating clearances, power arrangements, assembly access and the terminal commissioning requirements. Specify the documentation, training and spare-parts support needed for the project.
