38 Tons Lifted with Ease! XCMG Customized Solution Empowers Railway Container Transport
In early summer, the XCMG rail-dedicated heavy-container reach stackers operate efficiently at a key railway yard in the Shanxi-Inner Mongolia region. The tailored solution precisely addresses challenges, activating the intelligent engine of multimodal container transport.
As modern integrated transportation systems advance, the strategic importance of railway container transport continues to grow. However, this yard faced a critical bottleneck: due to safety distance restrictions from overhead contact lines, traditional reach stackers could not operate, hindering the shift from bulk cargo to containers and limiting multimodal transport efficiency.
To tackle this challenge, XCMG Port Machinery formed a dedicated technical team, delving into customer needs to innovatively develop a specialized solution for railway heavy-container operations. This solution perfectly aligns key equipment with unique operational scenarios, offering three core advantages:
Precision Adaptation: The flagship XCF4612K rail-dedicated heavy-container reach stacker boasts a maximum lifting capacity of 38 tons, efficiently handling dry bulk containers, open-top boxes, and other mainstream types, fully meeting cargo transport demands.
Efficient Coordination: Equipped with specialized container spreaders and an advanced F-TR lock recognition and auto-alignment system, it ensures swift and precise container handling, significantly boosting yard turnover and overall operational efficiency.
End-to-End Protection: Integrated with multiple safety systems—including intelligent collision warning, real-time equipment monitoring, and fault diagnosis—along with a rapid response mechanism, it delivers smart safety for high-intensity, continuous railway container operations.
From port terminals to railway hubs, from equipment manufacturing to deep scenario customization, XCMG continues to drive innovation in core technology, accelerating the logistics industry’s transformation toward greener, smarter solutions.
