Yard Crane

The RAM2900 series is for use on Rubber Tire Gantry Cranes or Rail Mounted Gantry Cranes. The 2900 model is  hydraulically powered, suitable for customers who are looking to boost their productivity whilst ensuring a reliable performance.

The 2900 series is a telescopic twin lift spreader for Rubber Tire Gantry Crane or Rail Mounted Gantry Crane operations. It is hydraullically operated and controlled from the crane's cabin. The spreader can be designed to interface with new or existing crane headblocks and electrical communication systems.

In twin lift mode, the RAM ‘CentreSpread’ function allows the spreader's centre gap to be adjusted when two 20ft containers are handled and not set at the standard centre gap distance. The centre gap can be adjusted when the spreader is either unladen or lifting two containers. Moreover, the spreader is fitted with a memory positioning system and automatic positioning system  to “memorise” the gap between the two 20ft containers.

Variety of Container Sizes
