CVS Ferrari delivery to Britanny
CVS Ferrari has delivered three F277.5 reachstackers to a big terminal in Britanny. The F277.5 is able to lift 45 tons in the first row and 25 tons in the second offering a good combination of weight and engine power, manoeuvrability and light ground pressure.
Once deployed, the system will automatically confirm the container load/discharge movements on each of the 14 ship-to-shore cranes in operation.
To increase productivity, the machines have an innovative drive and control system integrated in the driver seat with two joysticks available for the operator. The joystick mounted on the left arm has all the controls to turn, change gear and direction, open and close the spreader, whereas the joystick to control boom and spreader functions is situated on the right arm.
In this way the operator can use all the main controls without changing hands and can concentrate on container handling with a corresponding increase in productivity, it is claimed.
