Classification of Ship to Shore Container Cranes (STS Cranes)
STS cranes can be categorized based on their structural design, operational capabilities, and automation levels. The main types include:
1. Panamax & Post-Panamax Cranes
- Panamax STS Cranes: Designed to serve Panamax-class container ships (typically up to 13 rows wide).
- Post-Panamax STS Cranes: Built for larger vessels exceeding Panamax dimensions (14-18 rows).
- Super Post-Panamax STS Cranes: Capable of handling ultra-large container vessels (ULCVs) with outreach covering 22+ rows.
2. Twin-Lift & Single-Lift Cranes
- Single-Lift STS Cranes: Standard models handling one 20ft/40ft/45ft container at a time.
- Twin-Lift STS Cranes: Equipped with dual-container spreaders, allowing simultaneous handling of two 20ft containers (or one 40ft + one 20ft).
3. Single vs. Dual Trolley Systems
- Single Trolley STS Cranes: Traditional design with one trolley for container transport between ship and shore.
- Dual Trolley STS Cranes: Feature a main trolley (ship-to-transfer platform) and a portal trolley (transfer-to-stack), optimizing speed in automated terminals.
4. Automation-Ready & Fully Automated Cranes
- Semi-Automated STS Cranes: Remote-controlled operation with partial automation (e.g., AI anti-sway).
- Fully Automated STS Cranes: Integrated with terminal operating systems (TOS), using sensors and AI for unmanned operations (e.g., Rotterdam’s Maasvlakte).
5. Specialized Variants
- Low-Profile STS Cranes: For ports with airspace restrictions (e.g., near airports).
- Rail-Mounted STS Cranes (RMG): Used in some intermodal terminals where mobility along rails is preferred.
Note: Hybrid designs (e.g., Dual-Trolley Twin-Lift Post-Panamax Cranes) are increasingly common in mega-terminals to maximize productivity.
Optional Features
- Twin-Lift Spreader: Handle two 20-foot containers simultaneously for faster operations.
- Dual Trolley System: Increase productivity with parallel handling capabilities.
- Remote Control System: Monitor and operate the crane remotely for enhanced efficiency.
- Condition Monitoring System: Real-time diagnostics and predictive maintenance to minimize downtime.
