Container straddle carrier MST 28

for container handlingfor marine applicationselectric

Product overview
Straddle carrier with electric drive, engineered for handling and lifting 20ft ISO TANK containers up to 28 tonnes, with continuous height adjustment even under full load. Operating height ranges from 5.15 m to 7.75 m (total travel 2.6 m), enabled by four hydraulically actuated double-stage side telescopic masts — suited for applications demanding adaptability, precision and stability.

Powertrain and hydraulics
The machine combines battery-electric propulsion with a dedicated hydraulic system managing travel, lifting and steering. The hydraulic power unit is arranged in-line with a 45 kW electric motor, coupling unit, hydraulic pumps and valve blocks. The opposite beam houses the lithium battery pack, electrical cabinet and inverter for a compact, service-friendly layout. Portal lifting is performed by four heavy-duty double-acting cylinders (one per telescopic upright), equipped with load-holding valves and controlled lowering valves to enhance safety. Hydraulic and electrical lines are routed through ABS cable carriers to support smooth movement and long-term reliability.

Applications and customization
A high-performance solution for industrial logistics and port/intermodal operations requiring a special lifting vehicle tailored to demanding workflows. Units are fully customizable to customer specifications including load capacity, dimensions, layout, accessories and adaptations for environmental conditions.

Available structural configurations

• Single-girder: suitable for single or tandem use, optimal for transporting linear elements or elongated items.
• Double-girder: more robust and suitable for integration with a wide range of spreaders, for safe handling of bulky or irregular loads.

Distinctive features

• Load capacity customizable according to project requirements
• Telescopic versions extendable in width or height to accommodate varying load sizes
• Designed to operate in extreme environmental conditions, including temperature and humidity variations
• Electronic steering system for precise maneuvering in confined spaces

Options
Can be configured in a full electric version for sustainable, emission-free handling.
