The RTGs are 16 wheel configuration, stack one over six containers high and span seven containers plus a truck lane. Automatic DGPS steering and container location are also provided.

Liebherr has also recently signed a contract for the supply of two eight-wheel RTGs with Béjaia Mediterranean Terminal. These units will be installed at the port in the fourth quarter of 2009.
