Ship Unloader

A loading and unloading system in a port must be able to handle ships quickly – with minimal dust emissions and without the loss of bulk goods. For bulk materials unloading, two types of handling systems are basically deployed: continuous and discontinuous.
For the discontinuous unloading operation, mainly ship unloaders with Equilibrium crane and Harbor crane are used because these machines are very flexible owing to their simply exchangeable grabs of diverse shapes and sizes which facilitates relatively rapid adaptation to the bulk material to be handled.
When small or medium unloading capacities are in place, grab-type unloaders with a rotary and luffing boom are used. When high handling capacities are required, Equilibrium crane show the best performance.

GBM Ship Unloading Systems

When selecting and designing a discontinuous ship unloader, the quality and properties of the bulk material, local conditions, performance parameters and environmental requirements play a decisive role.
With these application conditions in mind, our engineers determine the most effective and cost-efficient handling principle while minimizing operational and maintenance requirements. The unloading system must fit in the port infrastructure and match current and future vessel sizes.
by the capacity of unloading required, our engineer proposes the suitable crane accordingly.

Equilibrium Crane

Equilibrium Crane, or Self Balance Crane, is the type of loader/unloader for bulk material, the definite advantage is high efficiency, it could reach the capacity by TPH the regular harbor crane or grab loader can't do.
by the application conditions and requirement from user, the crane could be integrated with a portal structure on tyres or rails.

Harbor Crane

GBM port crane/harbor crane with its experience on port handling, applies for bulk material ship unloading several years. The wire slinged crane with reinforced beam proposed widely by GBM, which has great performance and economical investment.
With its crane technology, GBM combines the reinforced crane with the gantry track mechanism to produce a light weight and small space multi-functional port mobile crane. This series of gantry slewing mobile cargo cranes are not only suitable for loading and unloading of bulk cargo, but also suitable for containers, bulk cargo and cargo in marine and inland ports. The working device can cooperate with all kinds of lifting tools, grab and hook; the portal track mechanism can be changed into a fixed base.

Central lubrication

The central lubrication system requires less maintenance. Relevant crane parts are automatically and independently lubricated by electric pumps.

Operator's Cabin

The optional comfort cab offers a 360-degree view through front, side, floor and ceiling windows made from tempered glass. This increases safety first and foremost. Other features, such as self-centring joysticks, air conditioning and vibration dampers, are oriented towards the ergonomics of the crane operator's workspace.

Low temperature resist

Special equipment packages enable reliable handling in icy regions. Also under extreme conditions with temperatures below -50° Celsius.

Moularization

Main characteristic of GBM crane is the special concept of modularization. Crane can work with variety affiliated grab and spreader, choose the best combination of port infrastructure & Bulk vessel working environment.
