It is widely used for efficient container handling and loading/unloading operations in ports, railway freight yards, logistics hubs, and other similar open storage locations.
The Dafang Rubber-Tired Container Gantry Crane (RTG) is a specialized, heavy-duty material handling solution engineered for high-density container yards, intermodal terminals, and port logistics hubs. Designed to optimize container stacking and yard throughput, our RTG cranes combine robust structural integrity, advanced automation, and flexible mobility.
Built to comply with international manufacturing and safety standards (including FEM, ISO, and CMAA), Dafang RTGs offer precise container positioning, low operational costs, and high durability under extreme marine and tropical environments. Available in both conventional diesel-powered setups and zero-emission electric/hybrid configurations (E-RTG), they deliver maximum eco-friendly efficiency tailored to modern terminal operations.

Product Advantages
Flexible Mobility & Multi-Directional Steering
Equipped with a heavy-duty rubber-tire gantry system capable of 90° steer/crab steering, zero-radius pivot turning, and line-steering, allowing seamless transfers across different yard lanes.
High Stacking Density & Space Optimization
Optimized span designs support 6 to 8 container rows plus 1 truck lane, with stacking height capabilities up to 1-over-6 high-cube (9’6″) containers, maximizing yard capacity.
Advanced Anti-Sway & Precision Positioning
Features an intelligent electronic anti-sway control system and micro-motion fine-tuning, reducing container sway time and significantly boosting operational safety and speed.
Green & Energy-Saving Technology (E-RTG Ready)
Supports full-electric cable reel power, busbar feeding, or hybrid battery/diesel-genset power configurations. Energy recovery systems (Regenerative Braking) reduce fuel consumption by up to 30%–60%.
Corrosion-Resistant Marine Design
Structures are treated with heavy-duty epoxy/polyurethane marine paint systems and stainless-steel hardware, built to withstand harsh salt spray, high humidity, and coastal environments.
Smart Maintenance & Monitoring
Integrated Smart Crane Management System (CMS) provides real-time diagnostic monitoring, remote fault reporting, and predictive maintenance schedules to minimize downtime.
Product Components
The RTG Crane consists of five primary modular assemblies:
Gantry Frame Structure
Rigid box-beam steel structure, finite-element (FEA) optimized for maximum fatigue resistance, low wind resistance, and structural stability.
Tire Gantry & Steering Mechanism
Rigid box-beam steel structure, finite-element (FEA) optimized for maximum fatigue resistance, low wind resistance, and structural stability.
Trolley & Hoisting System
Integrated winch hoisting mechanism driven by variable frequency motors. Compact design ensures smooth trolley travel along the main girder.
Telescopic Container Spreader
Fully automatic electro-hydraulic telescopic spreader (20ft/40ft/45ft) equipped with flippers, twist locks, and sway-reduction dampeners.
Driver’s Cabin & Control System
Ergonomic, fully enclosed cabin with $360^\circ$ panoramic safety glass, air conditioning, joystick controllers, and touchscreen CMS user interface.
