North Italian terminal orders new equipment

Italian terminal Terminal Del Golfo (TDG) operated by Tarros Group has ordered an eco-efficient Generation 6 Konecranes Gottwald Mobile Harbor Crane for their operation in La Spezia.

The crane will be equipped with an external power supply that lowers operating costs while reducing noise and exhaust emissions. The order was booked in July 2022 and the crane will be delivered in the first quarter of 2023.

The new Generation 6 crane will increase capacity and improve flexibility at the terminal, while it can handle containers, general cargo and heavy project cargo, and its external power supply is expected to both increase operational performance and reduce local carbon emissions.

When unplugged the crane uses a hybrid drive, consisting of an EU Stage V diesel engine paired with ultracapacitors refilled by lowering and braking energy, according to a statement.

The crane will have smart features such as automatic lubrication to reduce maintenance work, an emergency ladder on the tower wall for added safety, and digital services that streamline operation in line with Italy’s National Industry 4.0 Plan, a state strategy that encourages industrial innovation.
