Integrating automated control, intelligent sensing, and eco-friendly power technologies, this
system provides comprehensive upgrades for rail-mounted and rubber-tired gantry cranes — from
standalone smart operations to full-yard coordinated scheduling.
Core Modules for Intelligent
Gantry Cranes
Covering automated control systems, digital power electronics, and customized retrofit services, the solution provides modular or full-stack upgrades tailored to existing equipment and specific operational goals.
Automated Gantry Cranes (RMG/RTG)
High-performance RMG and RTG cranes featuring lightweight trolleys and autonomous anti-sway design. Can be integrated with Westwell’s proprietary automation system or third-party solutions to meet a wide range of operational requirements.
Intelligent Power & Control System
Fully digital AC variable-frequency drive with four-quadrant operation and energy recovery. Ensures precise speed control, smooth and efficient operation, and multi-level safety protection.
Crane Automation System
Enables remote and automated crane operations. Integrates core functions such as trolley positioning, spreader anti-lift, and crane collision avoidance. Operation mode upgrades from single-crane operations to multi-container management, significantly improving automation efficiency.
With Smart Gantry Crane,
You can Achieve
Safety integrity level compliant with IEC 61508 standards for automated operations
Remote control enables multiple-crane operations, significantly reducing labor input
Compatible with leading TOS scheduling systems and all major PLC platforms
Reduction in energy consumption through energy recovery
Solution Highlights
Efficient, intelligent, safe and sustainable container handling, setting new standards for modern warehouse storage.
Fully Automated Operations
From automated cruising and precise container handling to intelligent scheduling, enabling “driverless” gantry crane operations and ensuring continuous 24/7 high-efficiency performance.
Multi-Layer Safety Protection
Integrates anti-collision systems for trolleys and cranes, spreader anti-lift protection, and other safety features to create a comprehensive network compliant with international safety standards.
High Flexibility and Compatibility
Compatible with leading power control and scheduling platforms, with modular and customizable equipment that maximizes flexibility and safeguards existing investments.
Green, Energy-Efficient, and Cost-Effective
Energy recovery systems feed descending potential energy back to the grid. Fully electric operation ensures low noise and zero emissions, reducing both operating costs and environmental impact.
ntelligent Operation & Maintenance
