Key features
Easy lashing & handling
- Pick-up by the master spreader (same procedure as for all spreaders on a standard container).
- Placement on the out-of-gauge cargo and simple locking by unlocking and relocking the spreader twistlocks.
- High safety: The twisting of the OHF’s twistlocks is only possible if they are correctly aligned. All four safety pins have to be pushed in simultaneously.
- Clear optical indication of OHF twistlock position. All four TWLs rotate simultaneously and lock at a exactly 90° position. The spreader twistlock activation angle is only 65°.
- After having put down the cargo, the driver decides whether the OHF remains on the container or if the handling device takes it away. So handling works as with any other containers.
Product benefits (1)
- No need for internal or external energy supply (electric or other); the OHF system is supplied solely by the torque of the master spreaders twistlocks and can be handled as a universal container.
- No need for extensions or modifications on the spreader, very flexible application regardless of the spreader brand and no interference with warranty issues of third parties.
- No need for storage facility, the device can be kept anywhere and is always ready for use.
- Simple operation mode, the driver can concentrate fully on his or her job at hand.
- Significantly increased operational safety during cargo handling, due to automated process.
- Function is independent of the direction of rotation of the master spreader’s TWLs.
- Telescopic frame is extended by the force of the spreaders.
Product benefits (2)
- Fully automatic and autonomous frames for oversized cargo / open top containers /flat racks. Ideal to handle for stevedores / crane operators.
- Sturdy and stable construction, design compliance for rough operating conditions.
- Consistent lightweight construction enables maximum payload capacity on each spreader type.
- Manual emergency operation without spreaders possible for all OHF TWL’s together or each one separately.
- Improve overpations by low maintenance cost and high availability.
- Product advantages have been proven by many years of terminal servicing under different climate conditions.
- A world-wide network of sales partners guarantees reliable service and quick spare part deliveries.
