The additional cranes, which will be delivered in the first quarter of 2017, will bring TCV’s operating fleet to a total of 24 Konecranes RTGs.

Kim Selvén, sales director at Konecranes, says: “Our cooperation with TVC Stevedoring Company spans over a decade and it keeps getting stronger. The first Konecranes RTGs were ordered and delivered in 2004.

“TVC’s trust in us is based on the excellent performance of our equipment and the high quality of our service. Trust must be earned, and we’ll keep earning TCV’s trust.”

The 16-wheel RTGs will be equipped with Konecranes’ active load control; diesel fuel saver system; auto-steering; and, the company’s crane management system, to ensure safe and uninterrupted use of the cranes.

Not forgetting a lifting capacity of 50 tonnes to control twin-lift operation, and will stack one-over-five containers high and six-plus-truck lane wide.
