Container gantry cranes serve as the primary handling solution for outdoor storage yards, railway freight stations, and port terminals. Their versatile design accommodates various lifting attachments while offering exceptional space utilization, extensive operational range, and broad applicability. These characteristics make them indispensable in modern logistics hubs.

The crane's metal structure forms a gate-shaped framework with supporting legs running on ground-mounted rails. The main beam often features cantilevered extensions at both ends, further enhancing operational flexibility. Rail-mounted container gantry cranes have become the standard solution in container distribution areas due to these compelling advantages:

1. Operational Efficiency
  • Innovative structural design reduces manual labor requirements
  • Optimal space utilization with expansive working coverage
  • Broad compatibility with various container types and handling scenarios
2. Stable Performance
