Container spreader 4000

twin-lift typeautomatic

With the advancement of technology, port automation is now accelerating. The PinSmart II is designed to fill port automation's last challenge 'twistlock handling'. The machine is fully automated, removing and replacing all types of ISO twistlocks in ship to shore quayside or drive-through operations. The automated machine will support up to 80 tonnes and is shock damped to reduce shock transfer, impact and noise. Gather guides are located at each axis to guide container(s) into position, where the robotic arm(s) then remove or replace the container's twistlock cones. PinSmart II can be fitted with up to four smart robotic arms. The more robotic arms will reduce the removal/replacement of the twistlock cone cycle. Twistlocks are taken to or fed from the large-capacity storage racks - capable of handling up to 2,000 twistlock cones. The self-learning robotic arm can memorise each twistlock type and its exact position. The machine is powered by a simple plugin from the quay crane.
