I once had the opportunity to try and lift a container (with supervision of course) with a “small” forklift crane. It was nerve racking but an amazing sensation. Since then I have a lot of respect for crane operators. A lot of admiration. Enjoy work!
I'm a crane operator, and when I saw you running that liebherr I was like damn. That's awesome. what a cool crane. I'd love to run that everyday. then I saw you had to rub one of those gantry cargo cranes and I changed my mind haha. I couldn't imagine just trolley in trolley out all day 😂
My kids wanted to know what is was like to operate these things and your video was perfect. So well edited it kept their attention the whole way through.
@@heeeeeeeyyyyyyyyy would never happen 😭😭 I work at the port of delta that shit will never ever happen cranes break down but that just means mechanical shit not legitimate breaking and collapsing our job is one of the best on the planet great pay and you can train to become anything you want down here just by working here you start as a casual then boom in 10 years your driving the gantry you see in this video but bigger. Great stuff
@@Vexzeyy that’s cool, and good on you. But I do enjoy my job haha. I operate Excavators and Loaders and other Heavy Machinery. Big money for quite honestly an easy job. I was thinking of getting my gantry crane. (My old one expired) It’s roughly $1400 AUD for a ticket. Matter of fact I was operating gantry cranes since I was 18 lol. Literally my first job was using a controller to drive a 10 tonne Gantry Crane 😂
You’re right about never working when you love your job. I have fun every night I go to work. I operate the gantry cranes like the second crane you got into here in the port of Los Angeles here in the US. I can’t imagine using the first one you were in. Seems like it’s so much more difficult. We hardly ever work small ships though. They are always 18 containers wide and 8 high on deck. What port do you work in? You did a great job in that crane! 👍
@@josefiol9520 I can't speak for the rest of the US but on the west coast you have to first become a longshoreman in the Union. Which is a lengthy process. It's taken some people well over 13 years. I got into the union 21 years ago after working as a casual worker who takes overflow shifts that union members don't want. It's a lame life. I only had to do that for 2 1/2 years. When I got into the union I had to wait almost 19 years to get trained to operate these cranes.
@@PumaPete Is it not also about the Family members get first jobs. Before they let anyone in Longshoremen UNION. I have seen in some world ports were the computer controls the mule/ Truck on Docks. Like the auto assembly lines in Factory.
@@PumaPete Is it because there are no more Family members to give jobs to. I remember when they got rid of the oiler. We had them on Hydraulic Hoes. They were really just top men on ditch line. I was told this by a person who works as a Longshoreman. He worked in the industry.
Thank you so much for showing yourself operating one of these, move into tight spaces wonderful cranes. Not limited by the track that cantainer cranes have. Such a great machine crane that are built to load/ unload the let's say smaller ship. Does the wind effect your loads sometimes.
I also operate an LHM 550 up in the Great Lakes USA. We do clamshell grab work. Ours is equipped with the Pactronic system. Im considering chasing my dreams and relocating to the coast to become a STS container operator. Do any of you operators that have operated both prefer one or the other? Thank you!
The clamshell machine/ cranes look neat. Do you use a dozer with undercarriage extra covers. To prevent spills. On pushing the bottom stuff to a pile. Saw a JD ad once. Showing off a Dozer that they put in ship hold to push product to center for clam to pick up Just asking how do you remove all products out of holds. Thank you.
well here i'm watching this kind of vids for making me more sure to work as a stradle carrier driver and hopefully after that a container crane operator but yeah still driving a truck to this day and watching the crane works in antwerp from below
@@Container_World ik heb vandaag naar cepa gebeld en daar zeiden ze tegen mij dat ik eerst havenarbeider moet worden en dan na ongeveer 2-3 jaar een verdere opleiding kan doen naar stradle carrier

+Toon Nuytemans Ik heb je video's bekeken, een heel andere job maar ook leuk en uitdagend denkik! Op hoeveel meter hoogte zit je? En hoeveel uren moet je er per dag mee werken?
Da is de grootste en hoogste ja , 'k had liever een zwaarder kraan gehad die meer kan pakken, maar het is nu zo :s . De hoogte speelt geen rol voor mij, ook al staat die dubbel zo hoog dan kruip ik nog naar boven als het moet :p , alleen meer last van de wind hoe hoger natuurlijk :p
Thanks for this video! Great of you to show this world that is completely strange to me and most people I suspect. Actually writing a story about this at the moment so was really helpful :)
Container World How do I go about getting the proper training to land a position like this ? Do you need to gain experience working tower cranes for example before your ready for a role such as this ?
hey man, love the skills, congrats, I operate a liebherr gantry crane myself in Newark, I have been doing this around a year last week, but I wish we had such varied service as your ports did. Also question for 2:25, I see a bar in the monitor, is that to represent the force you put into driving the crane, I dont operate mobile harbour cranes, so its hard to know
+cat Did you Comment before with your 'hiimjake'' account? I wanted to respond but I couldn't find the Comment anymore :P Thanks for your comments, this is why I keep making videos! Well noticed about the ''bar'' on the screen. That is an indicator to balance the crane before going to ''driving mode''. So we need to boom up or down to equal the counterweight and boom. Check this video to see the ''working screen''. There is a green bar to indicate the max. load of the crane. Link: ruclips.net/video/AsNBBYbsWHc/видео.html
basically according to the load on the hook the crane gives an interval for your boom outreach, lets say you have 15ton on your hook the crane will give you an interval of 26m to 34m and if the bar stays in the middle where the white line is you are in the optimum boom outreach and if you go below or higher; in or out of the rectangle the crane will not go into driving mode it will not allow you to lower the crane onto its wheels.........that is to avoid bad balance when the machine is in driving mode, on the 550 you have 125ton counterbalance if you have a load on the hook and you boom up the weight of your load is shifting around the base plates within an area of 40 sq. meters which are designed to handle big loads something like 100tons+ but if you have the crane on its wheels its whole different story you cant load more than 50tons on a wheel set and you must quite precautions with dynamics load....a wheel set can easily burst causing the crane to go out of balance
@@Container_World inderdaad, ik heb in het verleden ook lasten mogen tillen met een kraan en besef wat een vaardigheid het vergt om de last te laten stil hangen en niet te laten slingeren. Vandaar respect

Great Video!! What if the Containertruck don't stop on the right spot when you should grab it on the port? Can you move the hook sideways without moving the whole Crane?
How do you know loading container position? Do you study cargo plans before or there is a tallyman (coordinator) which tells you coordinations for all containers seperately?
+iPh3x I don't take any loading papers in the crane, my Foreman/hatchman tells me what to load/unload on bay** and cell **. We are all have radio connection: Foreman, crane operator, drivers and dockers.
Coole video! Als ik vragen mag, wie bepaalt waar welke container op een schip geladen moet worden? Of mag u alle containers zo plaatsen in een rij of stapel?
Great video, awesome editing Joris with a couple questions. I assume you stay up there in your office the whole shift! how many hours? How many feet or meters are you from the ground in the gantry crane? You must have a electric or chemical toilet in there as well.
+canvids1 Thanks! I Worked 8hours on this video and I'm proud with this result! We work 7hours/shift! But we take a 30min break after 4 hours. We don't have a toilet.. :) the cabin is 141feet(43meters) from the ground! The Liebherr mobile cranes around 82feet(25meters)
+Joris Cleiren dam these guys are spoiled here in la/lb port 2 guys work one shit 4 hours each 8-12 next guy 1-5 and they both get payed for 10 hours of work even if they finish the ship early on finishing day and can make on around 200k a year
+Jim Tuna haha damn! Sometimes it is hard to stay focussed after 6-7hours so... And we also ge paid 9 hours to work 7. But we need to work the entire Shift, even the ship is finnished we jump in a reach stacker!

@@Container_World I see. I have a few herniated discs in my neck, so this would put me out of commission! Can you do a video detailing what is in the huge Warehouse In The Sky, on the top/aft end of the STS cranes?
@@Container_World No, im talking about what LOOKS like a warehouse, up on top of the crane. Most likely electrical and machinery in there. Does it now make sense why I called it a Warehouse-In-The-Sky? Cuz it looks like a little warehouse up on top of crane?
+Chiel van proeyen Eerst en vooral moet je aan de dok geraken. Dat kan 2 maanden duren maar ik ken ook mensen die 10jaar gewacht hebben. Dan kun je ten vroegste na 2 jaar havenarbeider te zijn chauffeur worden. De stap om kraanman te worden kun je niet zelf zetten. Je moet dan een firma vinden die jou als kraanman wil opleiden. Die laatste stap is de moeilijkste...
+Chiel van proeyen ja dat wel.... Bij mij is het allemaal heel vlot gegaan omdat ik al iets of wat ervaring had opgedaan bij kranen michielsens, dat heeft wel in mijn voordeel gespeeld. Na 4,5 jaar aan de haven was ik al kraanman. De jongste van heel de haven van Antwerpen zelfs!
Joris Cleiren Wow, that was a quickest response I've ever seen! Well thats good. Im clueless when it comes to shipping yards. I know about truck driving, just no license to drive yet.
Joris Cleiren Maybe i will one day. Right now I'm just facinated on how quickly yall are. 50-65 containers an hour, thats insane to me. Takes one hell of an operator to do that! I know ships are an organized mess if you will, But its crazy to watch it all unfold and work like its nothing. I couldnt imagin all the small mishaps that happen, combined with all the major accidents that happen. One job you always need to keep on your toes.
Mistakes happen every week, wrong number loaded or wrong position or containers that have to be reloaded(shifter) put on the import Stacks or containers with other dimensions than Paper... :D I can write a book about it haha!
The cockipit of the second looks like a sci-fi spaceship. Really cool to see some stuff like this on youtube.

@@Container_World I see. I have a few herniated discs in my neck, so this would put me out of commission!
Can you do a video detailing what is in the huge Warehouse In The Sky, on the top/aft end of the STS cranes?
I'm not allowed to do a video there. The port is a restricted area. 80% of goods in our warehouse are huge industrial Paper Rolls. ;)
@@Container_World No, im talking about what LOOKS like a warehouse, up on top of the crane. Most likely electrical and machinery in there. Does it now make sense why I called it a Warehouse-In-The-Sky? Cuz it looks like a little warehouse up on top of crane?
👍
exactly like playing a real life video game.
Haha! And it doesn't feel like working..!
But same game everyday😊

@@Container_World Sir how can I become a crane operator? where can I get the courses?

wat moet je allemaal doen om u job te doen?
+Chiel van proeyen om kraanman te worden?
ja idd ;)
+Chiel van proeyen Eerst en vooral moet je aan de dok geraken. Dat kan 2 maanden duren maar ik ken ook mensen die 10jaar gewacht hebben. Dan kun je ten vroegste na 2 jaar havenarbeider te zijn chauffeur worden. De stap om kraanman te worden kun je niet zelf zetten. Je moet dan een firma vinden die jou als kraanman wil opleiden. Die laatste stap is de moeilijkste...
dacht al zo iets is wel een lange weg voor dat je in de kraan geraakt.
+Chiel van proeyen ja dat wel.... Bij mij is het allemaal heel vlot gegaan omdat ik al iets of wat ervaring had opgedaan bij kranen michielsens, dat heeft wel in mijn voordeel gespeeld. Na 4,5 jaar aan de haven was ik al kraanman. De jongste van heel de haven van Antwerpen zelfs!
How much do you earn monthly ?
As crane operator or as RUclipsr?
@@Container_World crane operator

@@Container_World bruto of netto?
Netto €€€ 😁👍
I have training coming up
Das op de achterkant van AET?
+Deruyck Kevin jep inderdaad!
Had de nieuwe kranen onlangs opgemerkt toen ik er eens overdag was :-) Mss komen we elkaar wel eens tegen langs het spoor daar...
+Deruyck Kevin De wereld is klein! Kom je er geregeld?
1 keer per maand meestal... Met de FIAT/Mosolf trein. Heb destijds vaak die speciale tram transporten gedaan bij jullie
+Deruyck Kevin Ja wie weet!! Spreek me gerust aan moest je me herkennen ;)
What no pre start checks ?
Get drug and breath tested b4 shift start???.
I'm a crane operator for a metal recycling company. Do you have any pointers on how I would apply for a internship for a job like yours?
Yeah shure! What country do you live in? Maybe I can help you..
@@Container_World USA South Carolina
Pretty sure at this point I'm 38,000 of the views on this!
tbh that just seems like a high stress job
It's just a big claw machine
@@harryjey8830 and ive never been good at those either so it explains a good bit lmao
How about no 😁👍 It is Fun and very challenging
Yup😁👍
what is the average salary?
+Михаил Липень it depends very much what country you work in.
for example, in the United States
+Михаил Липень port of los Angeles has the biggest crane salary (some People told me) But I don't know any numbers...
Hopefully they tell you what containers to grab and where to put them. They would be screwed if I was put behid those controls otherwise.. lmao
+Snipe Stud00 hahahahaa Yes it is their job to Tell me the correct location on the ship👍
Joris Cleiren Wow, that was a quickest response I've ever seen! Well thats good. Im clueless when it comes to shipping yards. I know about truck driving, just no license to drive yet.
+Snipe Stud00 Haha, thanks. I respond to every comment. And you can request videos, I did it before for my subscribers!
Joris Cleiren Maybe i will one day. Right now I'm just facinated on how quickly yall are. 50-65 containers an hour, thats insane to me. Takes one hell of an operator to do that! I know ships are an organized mess if you will, But its crazy to watch it all unfold and work like its nothing. I couldnt imagin all the small mishaps that happen, combined with all the major accidents that happen. One job you always need to keep on your toes.
Mistakes happen every week, wrong number loaded or wrong position or containers that have to be reloaded(shifter) put on the import Stacks or containers with other dimensions than Paper... :D I can write a book about it haha!
Dear sir.
I am a crane operator and l would like to work in your company.
well the cabs arent merford but at least they are adjustable...
+NICKTHEGAMER_ You can adjust way more in the merford cabs! I allready miss them...
Joris Cleiren yeah, like moving the arm rests forewards
Yes, those were amazing in ergonomic comfort!
Antwerpen??
Alarm tone sounds..... V I E T N A M F L A S H B A C K S S S
