Two Gottwald mobile harbour cranes for Caucedo

According to Andrew Hoad, executive director of the Caucedo terminal, the two high-performance Gottwald units will increase the terminal’s output and enable DP World Caucedo “to help customers save costs through increasing our productivity during the current challenging economic circumstances.”

Gottwald describes the Model 6 of Generation 5 as a mobile harbour crane for high-performance applications with lifting capacities of up to 120 tonnes, working radii of up to 51 m and very high hoisting speeds of up to 120 m/min. The principle areas of crane application include high-end, high-speed container handling including twinlift mode and continuous bulk handling.
