A rail mounted gantry crane (RMG crane) is a robust, high-capacity lifting system designed to operate on fixed rail tracks, making it ideal for precise, repetitive material handling in large-scale facilities. Engineered to handle heavy loads—from containers and bulk goods to industrial equipment—RMG cranes deliver unmatched efficiency in ports, container yards, intermodal terminals, and industrial storage facilities.

Whether you need to streamline container stacking, accelerate cargo turnover, or optimize yard space, our rail mounted gantry cranes are built to meet the demands of high-throughput operations.

Key Features of Our Rail Mounted Gantry Cranes

Our RMG cranes are designed with cutting-edge technology and durable materials to ensure reliability, veiligheid, and long-term performance. Here’s what sets them apart:

1. Hoog laadvermogen: Handles loads from 20 ton aan 100+ ton, with customizable configurations for ultra-heavy cargo.
2. Precisiecontrole: Equipped with advanced PLC systems and variable frequency drives (VFD) for smooth, accurate positioning—critical for stacking containers or aligning heavy equipment.
3. Weather Resistance: Built with corrosion-resistant steel and sealed electrical components to withstand harsh environments (rain, humidity, Extreme temperaturen).
4. Energy Efficiency: Regenerative braking systems and low-power consumption motors reduce operational costs without compromising performance.
5. Space Optimization: Operates on fixed rails to maximize yard space utilization, allowing for dense stacking and efficient traffic flow.
6. Veiligheid eerst: Includes overload protection, emergency stop systems, anti-sway technology, and 360° monitoring cameras to minimize risks.

RMG vs RTG: Comparative Advantages

Understanding the differences between Rail Mounted Gantry Cranes (RMG) and Rubber Tyred Gantry Cranes (RTG) is crucial for selecting the right material handling solution. Below is a detailed comparison of their core advantages:

Comparison Dimension	Rail Mounted Gantry Crane (RMG)	Rubber Tyred Gantry Crane (RTG)
Mobility & Flexibility	Operates on fixed rails for stable, predictable movement; ideal for dedicated work zones with consistent workflows.	Tire-based design enables unrestricted movement across yards; suitable for dynamic layouts requiring frequent repositioning. 5G-enabled remote control models enhance operational flexibility further.
Laadvermogen & Stabiliteit	Superior stability from rail foundation; supports 20T–150T loads (customizable for ultra-heavy cargo) with precise positioning.	Typically handles 40T–60T loads; tire suspension may reduce stability for extreme weights or high stacking heights.
Space Utilization	Dense stacking capability (up to 6+ containers high) maximizes yard space; rail layout optimizes traffic flow for high-throughput operations.	Requires wider turning radii and spacing between units; limits stacking density compared to RMG systems.
Energy Efficiency & Onderhoud	Regenerative braking and low-power motors cut energy costs; minimal moving parts in rail systems reduce maintenance frequency.	Electric RTG models reduce diesel consumption, but tire replacement and suspension maintenance add long-term costs.
Application Suitability	Best for large-scale container terminals, intermodal yards, and industrial facilities with fixed, high-volume workflows.	Preferred for medium-sized yards, temporary projects, or facilities needing periodic layout adjustments.

For operations prioritizing stability, heavy-load handling, and space efficiency, RMG cranes deliver long-term value. RTG systems excel in scenarios requiring flexible, on-demand positioning.
