The efficient operation of port terminals and freight yards relies on the strong support of high-performance equipment. TONA's TCH90 Series Empty Container Handler is purpose-built for the handling, transfer, and stacking of 20′ and 40′ standard empty containers. With its core strengths in safety, reliability, intelligence, efficiency, energy conservation, and environmental protection, it solidifies the foundation for logistics hub operations, helping users reduce costs, increase efficiency, and move forward with confidence.
TONA integrates multiple safety protection measures deeply into the overall machine design, safeguarding both personnel and equipment in all aspects. Safe operation is TONA's foremost priority.
Pipe-network automatic fire suppression system: triggers automatic power shut-off and engine flameout upon activation, eliminating the risk of re-ignition.
Intelligent anti-tip-over protection technology ensures operational safety.
Hoisting oil circuit anti-burst safety design: in extreme conditions such as oil pipe rupture, the system automatically locks the load position, preventing free-fall hazards.
Widened rear wheel track significantly improves driving stability during high-position operations.
Optimized steering system adjustment reduces the difference in steering inner angles and minimizes tire side-slip wear.
Intelligent perception and warning system, using multi-camera and millimeter-wave radar fusion algorithms, enables real-time vehicle-wide alerts and reverse assist braking, mitigating risks during reversing operations.
The machine is equipped with a German IFM motion control system; core main pumps and valves are sourced from internationally renowned brands. High-stress areas are reinforced through dynamic simulation and finite element analysis. It also features emergency stop devices compliant with European and American standards and widened access walkways. From hardware protection to human-machine interface details, a multi-layered safety barrier is established, ensuring greater peace of mind during heavy-load operations.
Intelligence-driven productivity, unlocking new efficiency levels in yard operations.
TONA empty container handlers feature automated operational status detection and real-time data visualization.
The cooling system adopts a cold/hot air duct isolation design, improving heat dissipation efficiency by 10% and maintaining stable performance even in high-temperature environments.
The integral axle uses a full-plate blanking process, reducing welding workload and delivering superior structural stress performance.
CAN bus control technology offers strong anti-interference capability and rapid response.
An optional centralized lubrication system automatically supplies lubricating oil based on the actual consumption of each lubrication point, reducing manual maintenance burdens.
The equipment supports stacking of empty containers up to 6–8 layers high and is compatible with two-stage and three-stage masts, as well as optional spreaders for straddle, twin-box, and single-box configurations, flexibly adapting to various yard operating conditions and significantly improving space utilization and operational throughput.
Fuel or pure-electric power options are available based on customer site requirements, balancing performance with green and low-carbon operations.
The electric empty container handler is equipped with a gravitational potential energy recovery system that recovers potential energy during load-lowering conditions, achieving up to 30% energy recovery per lifting cycle. This effectively reduces energy consumption and extends battery life, aligning with the trend toward green port development.
The diesel empty container handler employs electro-proportional hydraulic control technology, ensuring precise and smooth lifting and lowering actions for more stable container stacking and alignment. An innovative dual-side maintenance access channel allows direct reach to core components at the bottom of the engine compartment, eliminating the need for extensive disassembly during servicing and effectively shortening maintenance hours. The equipment also features load-sensing technology that distributes flow on demand, eliminating flow waste. The power system and hydraulic system are adaptively matched, paired with original imported transmission intelligent control for smooth gear shifts, balancing powerful output with energy management. Whether electric or diesel, both versions achieve energy savings, reduced consumption, and lower operating costs.
From port terminals to inland yards, complex and varied operating scenarios test the comprehensive capabilities of equipment. TONA's Empty Container Handler integrates safety, intelligence, and energy efficiency into a cohesive whole. It is not just a piece of handling equipment but a reliable partner for cost reduction and efficiency enhancement in yard operations. With rugged quality that supports every lift and precision engineering that creates greater business value, TONA joins hands with its customers to embrace a new future of smart logistics.
