Side-Lift Cranes Get the Job Done
A side-lift crane is a mobile semi-trailer that incorporates a lateral elevator and is designed to transport and lift containers. It also handles cargo in the dock, although it's mostly preferred for the rails. Side-lift cranes get the job done because their light design makes it possible to load and unload containers on the ground, thereby reducing the risk of injury. The cranes have hydraulic legs and can lift loads of up to 44 tons without tilting the vehicle. Their trailer stabilizer legs are flexible and can be adjusted to assist the crane's operations in elevated terrains. This feature makes it preferred for most jobs because it facilitates substantial safety margins and loads limits while stacking containers.
Side-lift cranes save operators time because they can be easily loaded into the trailers without the help of cranes during crane transportation, thus saving the transport operator money too. Not only do they transfer their containers, but side-lift cranes can also be used in loading and unloading complete container convoys without assigning expensive independent heavy equipment.
Side-lift cranes reduce the costs incurred due to leaving trailers at the site, and they also free up equipment and personnel for other tasks, saving operating costs.
