Crane travel speed is 46 m/min.
Having a SWL of 40.6 tonnes under telescopic spreader, the 16-wheel configured RTGs will stack one-over-four containers high and span seven containers plus a truck lane. Their hoist speed is 28/56m/min; trolley speed is 70m/min with a crane travel speed of 70/130m/min.
