Rubber-tyre gantry crane duo now up and running in Valencia
30 November 2022Two Konecranes rubber-tyred gantry cranes (RGTs) are now in action at CSP’s Iberian Valencia terminal in Spain.
The two cranes are similar to the RTGs already operated by CSP Spain: they have a lifting capacity of 40.6t, lifting containers 1-over-5 high, and are six rows wide plus truck lane. They have Stage V diesel generator sets that meet the latest EU emissions standards.
The order was booked in October 2021. At the time of the booking, Valencia Terminal had a fleet of 39 Konecranes RTGs and support from the Konecranes Port Services hub in Valencia.
Speaking at the time of the order, the general manager of Valencia Terminal, Gustavo Ferrer, said: “We’ve been working with Konecranes for years. They have always followed through on their commitments with excellent local support. This is very important to us… the new Konecranes RTGs [will] be reliable and productive and help us to drive our business forward.”
