Railway gantry crane is a professional container loading and unloading equipment, container gantry cranes move on the designed rail and equipped with automatic container spreaders.
Railway gantry crane for container handling

Railway gantry cranes are primarily used for container handling in container yards and depots; however, container gantry cranes can also be used for small vessels in inland water container loading ports; the hook under the automatic spreader handles the loading and unloading of bulk goods;  Railway container cranes have the advantages of high efficiency and usability, lower cost in maintenance and daily operation, and ease of control, etc.

Operation flow of railway gantry cranes

  • The container handling instructions are transmitted from the central control room to the operation of railway gantry crane.
  • The instructions are delivered to the driver's cabin.
  • Using the linkage table touch screen, the gantry crane driver initiates the loading and unloading operation.
  • The spreader, gantry crane, and trolley positions are displayed on the touch screen in real time.
  • The control system temporarily accepts plug-in jobs while prioritizing the ongoing job, and then performs the plug-in job after the current job is completed.
  • Accurate container positioning technology.
  • Machine vision accurately locates the container keyhole and reads the container number, after which the intelligent control system adjusts the spreader position and deflection angle to achieve accuracy locking and precision container stacking.
  • The spreader, gantry crane, and trolley positions are displayed on the linkage table's touch screen in real time.
  • Because this container gantry crane crane is equipped with a PDS system, if the gantry crane position does not correspond to the PDS system's indication position, the railway gantry crane does not execute the command and sends out the alarm information. The container crane continues to execute the handling command after the driver moves it to the system indication position.
  • Technology for optimized path and obstacle avoidance through programmed path planning and obstacle avoidance.
  • Infrared space scanning is used to perform real-time scanning of the yard container storage situation and to update the yard stacking 3d database. To ensure safe operation, the spreader is controlled by an intelligent program that directs it along the best path for intelligent obstacle avoidance.
  • The central control room receives the crane's completion information feedback and enters it into the database.

Best For

Large container yards, rail & road terminals, heavy loads

Intermodal yards, flexible stacking, port terminals

Choose RMG for high-density stacking and heavy loads on fixed rails; choose RTG when flexibility and lower initial cost matter more.
  1. Application? Port terminal → RMG / RTG · Container yard stacking → RMG · Intermodal yard → RTG · Railway container → Railway Gantry · Ship repair / heavy cargo → Goliath Gantry · Bulk material → Goliath with grab · Warehouse → Overhead or Warehouse Gantry
  2. Yard layout? Fixed rails available → RMG · Need to move between blocks → RTG · Confined area → smaller span gantry
  3. Capacity & stacking? RMG 30–65 t, up to 8 high · RTG 30–50 t, up to 6 high · Railway 35–50 t · Railroad 1–50 t
  4. Power source? Electric → lower emissions & running cost · Diesel → flexible · Hybrid → balance of both
  5. Environment? High wind → RMG (more stable) · 24/7 operation → heavy duty A6–A8 · Corrosive coastal air → protected electricals
Match the crane to the terminal operation, not just the container weight.
