Telescopic container spreader (for ship-to-shore crane)
SSX45
BROMMA
The telescopic spreader is of a rectangular frame construction enabling easy location on containers. The spreader is as standard equipped with 4 x 10 tonnes lifting lugs in the corners of the end beams for heavy lifts and for handling damaged containers. The spreader can adjust its length to lift 20 foot, 40 foot and 45 foot containers using ISO floating twistlocks. The spreader can retract to the 19 foot-6 inch position in case it becomes jammed in the ship's 20 foot cell. The design with recessed end beams makes handling of lashing frames and hatch covers possible. All motions of the spreader are controlled from the driver's cab and there are provisions made for signals in the cab indicating the position of the twistlocks and landing pin status. Made of high quality steel, the standard SSX45 spreader provides high lifting capacity with a low nominal tare weight thanks to the box design of the telescoping beams and the main frame. The spreader is designed in accordance with DIN 15018 H2B4. All components can be easily assembled, adjusted, removed and are accessible for inspection and maintenance. The spreader comes with the SCS² Spreader Communications System, reducing and preventing downtime through improvements in the area of electrical connections. It will also shorten downtime through faster spreader fault diagnostics.
