Straddle Carriers are lifting cranes mounted on tyres often used to replace gantry cranes for lifting and handling heavy loads in casting yards, factories, storage areas, ports and marinas. Compared to normal gantry cranes, which move on fixed rails, the Straddle Carrier has the flexibility to lift and steer heavy loads in any direction on motorized wheels. These Straddle Carriers’ lifting capacities normally range from 50t to 900t. Explore more videos here at #interestingengineering Interesting Engineering...
