FREERIDER – THE WHEELED AUTOMATION

Decades of experience and continuous product improvement has led Kuenz to become an innovation leader in the container handling market. Kuenz crane components are designed and selected with a focus on safety, availability, reliability and efficiency. As a result of these strengths, Kuenz has designed the FREERIDER which will act as the missing link between the traditional RTG Business and ASC Handling.

MORE EFFICIENT, FASTER AND FUNCTIONAL. THE FUTURE OF CONTAINER HANDLING

The primary objective was to design an RTG Crane for more efficiency and faster container handling. A high level of flexibility in motion also leads to more convenience and increased safety for the operator. Presenting the new FREERIDER, Kuenz elevates the RTG design into the 21st century. The update of popular concepts, as well as innovative solutions, results in:

  • Kuenz FREERIDER: increased stiffness and reduced gantry structure weight
  • Kuenz SPIDER: a new, faster and more precise hoist system, offering the most stable hoist and rope reeving on the market
  • Kuenz ONE HAND: more accurate controls and more comfortable, ergonomic operator control

The Kuenz FREERIDER RTG features:

  • the highest gantry speed on the market
  • gantry drive even with loaded container up to 130 m/min
  • the patented SPIDER hoist system and ONE HAND control desk for accurate, faster and safer container handling
  • a fully automated concept

How can you easily change your operation?

  • Converting your RTG Brown Field to an end loaded layout
  • Step by step modification without effects on your daily terminal operation
  • Reusing existing RTG tracks
  • No change in stacking capacity
  • No significant civil works required, except for the electrification, enclosure, and building of the transfer zone
  • Increased safety due to container handling in a fenced area
  • Step by step move to remote operation and automation using existing TOS interface

SOLUTIONS
