On January 25th, the Port of Savannah received 4 new electric ship - to - shore cranes, increasing its fleet at the Ocean Terminal to 8 super post - Panamax cranes. All of these cranes were designed by Konecranes, a Finnish port equipment manufacturer.
Although the Ocean Terminal remains open and functional, it is currently undergoing renovation. Once fully operational and after the berth construction is completed, the 8 ship - to - shore cranes at the Ocean Terminal will be able to handle two ships simultaneously. The project is expected to be completed in 2028, by then, the Ocean Terminal will be capable of accommodating the largest ships serving the East Coast of the United States.
Industry Trends
With the booming development of global trade and the increasingly obvious trend of ship enlargement, the port crane industry is evolving in the following aspects:
1. Large - scale: Larger marine cranes are needed to meet the loading and unloading requirements of large - sized ships, which can significantly enhance the port's cargo throughput per unit time.
2. Intelligent: Advanced automated control technologies are being increasingly adopted, reducing manual operation and enhancing operation accuracy and safety.
3. Green: There is a growing trend towards using clean energy sources like electricity for crane operation, aiming to minimize environmental pollution.
The Emergence of MAXTECH Cranes
In this wave of industry transformation, MAXTECH marine cranes have emerged and gained prominence:
1. Technological Innovation: MAXTECH continuously innovates in technology. Our ship deck cranes are equipped with powerful lifting capabilities, enabling them to adapt to the loading and unloading operations of large ships.
2. Quality Assurance: MAXTECH has an unwavering pursuit of quality, ensuring the high - quality of the crane equipment it delivers to global customers.
3. Intelligent Application: MAXTECH deeply integrates intelligent control technology into its cranes. For example, at some international hub ports, through the intelligent scheduling system, the offshore cranes can optimize operation processes, effectively shortening the ship's berthing time and greatly improving the port's operational efficiency. As a result, MAXTECH has established a good reputation in the global port crane market and become an important force driving the industry's development. It joins hands with numerous ports to contribute to the prosperity of the global logistics industry.
