Intermodal yards, rail terminals and trucking hubs transfer containers, trailers and heavy freight between road and rail where dwell time is money. Kranes supplies gantry, reach and mobile cranes for container handling and the boom trucks that load and unload oversized freight, with service and parts to hold uptime. Tell us the throughput, the loads and the yard, and we quote lifting equipment matched to the pace your terminal runs.
Intermodal lifting is about speed at the transfer point: containers, trailers and heavy freight moved between road and rail where dwell time is the cost. Gantry and reach-stacker style cranes transfer containers across a yard; mobile cranes handle the heavier or out-of-gauge loads; and boom trucks load and unload oversized freight where a fixed crane does not reach. The whole point is to keep boxes and trailers moving.
Kranes supplies gantry, mobile and boom-truck cranes for container handling and oversized-freight transfer, with the service and parts to hold uptime through a terminal peak. A terminal is judged on throughput, so the lifting is specified for the pace the yard runs and backed by maintenance that keeps a crane from stalling the transfer line during the busiest windows.
Specifying terminal lifting comes down to the throughput, the load mix and the yard layout. Tell Kranes the container and freight loads, the pace and the spaces, and we quote the gantry, mobile or boom-truck cranes matched to how fast the terminal has to run. Oversized and out-of-gauge loads are planned with the rigging and the mobile crane that can take them safely off the rail or road.
A stalled crane stalls the whole terminal, so inspection, certification and a stocked parts supply are what protect throughput. Kranes documents cranes to CSA and provincial standards, services them on schedule and keeps the parts to hold uptime through peak. Tell us the throughput, the loads and the yard, and we quote lifting equipment matched to the pace your terminal runs, anywhere in Canada.
