SingFlex Tandem Headblock System
Electro-hydraulic tandem headblock letting a single-hoist crane carry two spreaders to lift 4 x 20ft or 2 x 40/45ft containers per cycle, with automated changeover within 2 minutes.
Description
The RAM SingFlex tandem headblock handles multiple containers in a single hoist lifting operation. It is electro-hydraulically operated with all functions controlled from the crane operator's cabin, and can be retrofitted to most container handling cranes, connecting to the spreaders through ISO floating twistlocks.
Key features
- Fully automated changeover between single and twin spreader operation in the headblock's docking station, within 2 minutes and without support staff
- Operator control of gap (0-1600 mm), skew (up to +/- 3 degrees), longitudinal offset (0-200 mm) and height difference (0-550 mm) between containers
- More containers per cycle raises quayside productivity and reduces energy consumption
Applications
Ship-to-shore and other single-hoist container cranes.
