State-of-the-Art Equipment
Da Chan Bay Terminal One is the first container terminal in the world that deploys a full fleet of electrical rubber-tyred gantry cranes (electrical RTGs) that are environmental friendly. The Terminal is also equipped with dual-hoist tandem-lift quay cranes (QCs) to achieve world-class productivity levels, and to handle the largest vessels.

Electrical Rubber-tyred Gantry Cranes ¨C Driven by electricity in stead of diesel oil, the electrical RTGs are very environmental friendly. With their span of 23.5 metres, the Terminal's one-over-six-high and one-plus-six-wide electrical RTGs give its yard the highest stacking capacity in Shenzhen. Their anti-collision and anti-lifting systems also ensure operational safety. |

Dual-hoist Tandem-lift Quay Cranes ¨C The Terminal's dual-hoist tandem-lift QCs are much more productive than normal ones. Their two spreaders are able to simultaneously handle two 40-foot containers or four 20-foot containers with a total laden weight of 80 metric tons; and they have an outreach of 67 metres across 24 containers. In addition, they have a wide rail gauge of 35 metres, the widest and most unique design in South China. These features allow for more tractor traffic beneath them, faster tractor turnaround time, and greater operational efficiency. | |
