Following the successful implementation of the first project, which was reported earlier, the company focused on the next one, in accordance with the previously concluded contract. This repeat order serves as a strong testament to RIKON’s reputation as a reliable supplier of high-tech, high-performance lifting equipment.
The new crane is identical to the previously installed unit and features a maximum lifting capacity of 41 tons under spreader. Key technical specifications include a 10.8 m cantilever length, 7 m operating outreach, and 17.1 m span between the legs. The crane is equipped with advanced control systems from leading global manufacturers, ensuring exceptional reliability, precision in operations, and energy efficiency.
Like the first crane, the new RMG will handle container operations in the terminal’s expansion area, which serves as a crucial link in the international “East-West” and “North-South” transport corridors. The development of First Dry Port Terminal’s infrastructure, located on the historic Great Silk Road, holds strategic importance for regional economic development and enhanced trade connectivity between Asia and Europe. The terminal spans 22 hectares and features 8 railway tracks with a total length of 5,300 meters, a covered customs warehouse, an open customs area, a customs control zone, and loading/unloading platforms.
The commissioning of this additional equipment will enable the terminal to handle growing cargo traffic more efficiently, boost operational productivity, and strengthen its position as a strategic logistics hub of international importance.
RIKON serially manufactures gantry container cranes for ports and container terminals, and this completed project reaffirms the company’s status as a reliable partner for modern logistics infrastructure development.
