How It Works
Step-by-Step Operation
- Initial Loading/Unloading:The Electric Rotation Container Spreader is attached to the crane and positioned over the container to be lifted.The container is secured using the twistlock mechanism, ready for rotation and translation.
- Lifting the Container:The crane hoists the container off the ground, lifting it to the desired height for rotation and movement.
- Rotating the Container:Once the container is lifted, the electric motor drives the rotation mechanism. The spreader rotates the container to the specified angle (up to ±200°), ensuring it aligns with the target position.Rotation speed is maintained at a smooth 1 RPM to prevent sudden movements and ensure the container is handled safely.
- Translation for Stability:After the container is rotated to the correct angle, the translation function is activated. The spreader shifts horizontally by up to ±1200mm, compensating for any eccentric load and ensuring the container remains stable.This function balances the container’s load, reducing the risk of instability during the final placement.
- Precise Positioning:The container is then positioned accurately in the target location, whether it’s on a ship, dock, or storage area. The combined rotation and translation ensure that the container is placed with precision.
- Securing the Container:Once the container is in place, the twistlocks are engaged, and the spreader is detached, ready for the next container handling task.
Rotation and Translation Working Together
- Rotation Function: The rotation function allows for precise alignment of the container, helping it reach the optimal angle for easy placement. This is particularly useful for aligning containers with specific targets, such as docking spaces or crane rails.
- Translation Function: The translation function compensates for eccentric loads, moving the spreader horizontally to balance any off-center weight in the container. This ensures the container remains stable throughout the handling process, preventing tipping or shifting.
Together, the rotation and translation functions work seamlessly to ensure containers are positioned accurately and safely, improving overall operational efficiency and reducing the risk of accidents or damage during the process.
