Key selection criteria for clamps & spreaders
- Rated load and safety factor — verify nominal lifting capacity, required safety factor and compatibility with existing cranes and slings.
- Load form and contact points — choose clamp or spreader interface that matches container corner castings, lifted loads or irregular shapes to avoid damage.
- Operating environment — consider coastal corrosion protection, temperature range and exposure to dust/abrasives for long-term reliability.
- Safety interlocks & sensing — position sensors, rotation locks and interlocks improve operational safety and help meet port regulations.
- Compliance & certification — request documentation (ISO9001, test reports) and confirm HS/ customs classification for cross-border procurement.
Typical applications
- Container terminals — regular container rotation where speed and reliability reduce berth time.
- Inland logistics parks — yard handling and intermodal transfers requiring adaptable spreaders.
- Construction and project cargo — on-site container handling with variable conditions and higher demand for robust fixtures.
