Heavy transport by sea or by road | container lifter | containerstacker - reachstacker - big forklift truck
Container stackers are the real "musclemen" of the port world! These giants are not only needed for smooth container handling, but are also real heavyweights when it comes to transport by ship. But before they set off on their great voyages, they have to be broken down into their individual parts as if they had an appointment at a yoga class!
First, there's the chassis, which is placed like a lost puzzle piece on an extra-wide and extra-high 40-foot flatrack. "Widest exit in the world," they'd probably write on the road sign if there was one for container trucks! Wrapped up like this, the chassis can quietly enjoy a round of seafaring and feel like a celebrity in first class.
But wait a minute, where's the rest of the forklift? Don't worry, it's on its own adventurous journey too! On a second flatrack container, the daring container spreader is freighted. Imagine sitting in an open-air restaurant and swinging yourself into the air with a spoonful of spaghetti - that's exactly how the container spreader feels! With a few possible counterweights at his side to keep him balanced, he's ready for maritime adventure.
But wait, there's one more role to play - the telescopic arm! And for that we have the third container in the bunch, the open-top container. That's where the top opens up like a pop-up tent and the telescopic arm gets ready for its comfortable journey. No space problems for this flexible one! In his "container hotel" he can stretch out and relax while the ship plows through the waves.
Transporting container stackers by sea may sound complicated, but hey, who said the fun has to end on land? With their disassembly into three adventurous parts and their journey on special containers, these stackers create a real "container rodeo" atmosphere. Hyster container stackers - ready to conquer the oceans while stirring up port life with their fun charm!
