Dense yard handling
Rail-mounted precision for container operations.
RMG systems run on fixed rails to deliver repeatable positioning across dense container stacks. Define the row layout, truck lane, wheel-load requirements and operating cycle; our engineering team can review the mechanical, electrical and control scope.
- Efficient yard coverage5–12 rows plus truck lane with optional left and right cantilever outreach.
- Controlled liftingVFD-driven motion, anti-sway/skew and collision-avoidance packages.
- Connected terminal workflowsTOS interface with optional OCR/RFID and guidance functions.
Engineering highlights
Choose the right handling and control package.
Match the spreader, control package and terminal interfaces to your container mix and operating cycle.
Container spreaders
ISO 20/40/45 telescopic spreader and optional twin-lift 2×20 configuration.
Control & safety
Anti-sway, anti-skew, stack profiling, truck positioning and collision avoidance options.
Yard automation
Cabin or remote desk operation with assisted/semi-automatic TOS interface options.
Power & uptime
Busbar or MV cable reel, VFD drives, regenerative options and remote monitoring.
Interactive specification builder
Build your RMG configuration.
Adjust the parameters and see an indicative budget immediately. Use your selection to prepare a detailed RFQ—final sizing requires your drawings and operating conditions.
RMG Project Parameters
Start with your yard geometry, then select equipment and control options.
Design duty, outreach, interfaces, loads, approvals and scope are subject to engineering review. Please attach a yard plan if available.

Quick answers
Planning an RMG project?
These are common items to clarify before the firm quotation stage.
What information is needed for an RMG quote?
Please send safe working load, container row arrangement, rail gauge, stacking height, cantilever lengths, crane quantity, power availability, operating cycle and a site or yard drawing where possible.
Can I select a telescopic or twin-lift spreader?
The specification supports ISO 20/40/45 telescopic spreaders and a twin-lift 2×20 option. The capacity and cycle-time requirement will determine the final spreader arrangement.
Are anti-sway controls and TOS integration available?
Assisted anti-sway/skew, stack profiling, collision-avoidance packages and optional TOS integration are listed configurations. Integration scope must be reviewed against your terminal software and sensors.
What does the budget estimate cover?
The displayed range is a planning estimate. A firm quotation follows review of drawings, design duty, terminal interfaces, options and delivery scope.
