PATRICKS ON A HIGH

Australian stevedore Patricks has reported that it is now achieving an average rate of 20 boxes per hour delivered to the crane with its ground-breaking automated straddle carrier system. It states it has achieved as high a rate as 30 boxes per hour delivered to the crane but this is peak working rather than the average. 

It also expresses confidence that the average will continue to rise partially assisted by the introduction of a further five new Kalmar straddle carriers as well as two new container gantry cranes.
