100 Rubber-Tyred Mobile Gantry Cranes (RTG): Outdoor Heavy Load Transport
The demand for outdoor heavy-duty handling in ports, shipyards and heavy industries is constantly growing. The 100-ton tire-type mobile gantry crane (RTG) gets rid of track restrictions and can move flexibly, adapting to the lifting of various large-scale components. The rated load of 100 tons is suitable for most outdoor heavy-duty working conditions. Compared with fixed gantry cranes, there is no need for infrastructure bases, and they can freely switch operating points, which significantly improves the material turnover efficiency of the yard.
