This video brings back memories for me big time. You have to have great eyes for that distance you are working. Nice clean windows sure helps LOL. What controls your anti sway in the head? The machine that I operated had 4 small hydraulic motors with some kind of sensors on top of the head working small cables on each corner to control the sway and that was only a 100 feet in the air and you are working a much longer distance with no sway at all. I like the two lock lights letting you know both sides are locked or unlocked because they do catch sometimes. 50 containers an hour only if everything is working right! and that doesn't happen often LOL. It looks like a very nice machine to operate thanks for the great video.
Fantastic video. Every day i drive past the Port of Oakland and I've always wondered how these things work. Can I ask a question -- how do you make sure the container is exactly lined up when you release it from the gantry? For example, when you take a container off the ship and put it on a truck, it seems that you would have to align it perfectly. If it was just a few inches or feet off, it wouldn't sit properly on the truck bed. The same when you put it on a ship. It seems difficult to be so exact. I hope this makes sense. Thanks!
+slgordon3 Thanks for your Comment, I enjoyed reading it. It is a pleasure to show the World how things work in the container port! You have a very good question! There are 2 difficult things as a STS crane operator: assessing the height and getting the crane aligned to the ship. The ship can move while loading and discharging because it is on water. The trucks under the crane will stop exactly in the center of the crane. There is a laser detection on the cranes that Light up a signal to the driver when he is in the right position! Make sure you subscribe, I'm working on a 1.000 subscribers bonus video showing the life of a harbour crane operator. It will be different than my other videos. Greetings JC
Well noticed! Every container has it's position, pre planned by our vessel planners. Check my reach stacker video to see our computer system. They Bring every container in a certain order. When I pick-up the container, our checker tells me the correct position on the ship by radio communication. Feel free to ask more!
Left joystick has 2 yellow buttons for rotating the container left and right. White is to lift one side of the container left of right. The right joystick has all colors similar to the flippers to grab the containers. I always read all comments, feel free to ask more!
i like this clip its clean and i can see both hands on the controls,but i would like to ask you one question does your back ever pain you?what size or tonnage gantry crane your operating?nice job
Thanks! Yes I had troubles with my neck and back. I've been to a physiotherapist for a few months and that helped me a lot. For getting the best possible ergonomic position. These cranes are 70ton cranes, they can handle it across the entire boom.
hi there joris cleiren i would like to operate one of those gantry one day but first i must tell you the truth i did an job interview at my port in jamaica and have since gone through all the necessary procedure of working at the port,but my problem is my medical x-ray shows that i have a narrowed disc in my left spine ,that was in 2010,however a new company from Europe took over the entire port what do you think i should give it another try?
+richard nelson You should give it a try! You can always take a step back. I also have a really weak back and neck (genetic)but I love the job to much so I've been to a psychoterapist to get the best ergonomic position possible and trying to avoid long working in the same position.
thanks joris i will give it another try i really love heavy duty equipment and to get my hands on complex machines i hope all goes well for you in the near future please send me some more of your clips,best regards.
Nice video friend! I have a tip ;) put thise sticks in the video and add some text to them which button has which function ;) It's hard to figure out which button does what task ;)
+Joris Cleiren Yep, if that involves some procedures it would be nice ;) And maybe a 'peek' in the engineroom? Or how is that called in a gantry crane? :) Or attach the camera at the end of the boom so you see the trolley moving instead of the camera mounted on the trolley?
@@Container_World Hi Container World, I have made an enquiry with DP World in Sydney but without experience very difficult to get a start in the industry I believe!
On the ground, a team member diligently tracks the location. Communication between the ground, crane operator, and team members in the yard waiting to receive the container is continuous. The ship has a report breaking down where the container (all are numbered) is located and any safety hazard it may pose. The team member enters the container details into a computer registry, reviews the plan for the vessel, and based on the container, a stack is selected. Some are placed back on the ship later after the selected containers are moved out. Others are stacked in the yard appropriately to be accessed by the trucking community.
Can you give a rundown of how your handles work? Is the side to side motion you do on your hoist your lock and unlock? If it is, that's pretty cool. Do you have a separate handle for your gantry?
How do you gantry your crane? On our cranes in Seattle our hoist handle serves as our gantry or we have a separate handle to gantry up and down the dock. I guess I should call handles joysticks.
Where I want to study, which is best institute, how can I choose the institute, how can i find job after that course, what are the certificates I really need for this job ?
how can that port do 50 miles an hour when they do not come up consistently by the looks of it it's probably only 10 move to 20 miles an hour not 50 miles an hour Los Angeles port and Long Beach port only does 40 to 45 + hour
I'm from Korea
What you're doing is so cool
I want to ride a container crane, too
I'm in the process of getting a license

+canvids1 Great Comment thanks! There is no anti sway on this crane, It is all up to the crane operator to get the swing out.

Excellent Work!
How do you know where to put the containers on the ship? I noticed some go inside the ship some go other places. How do you know which boxes go where?
Well noticed! Every container has it's position, pre planned by our vessel planners. Check my reach stacker video to see our computer system. They Bring every container in a certain order. When I pick-up the container, our checker tells me the correct position on the ship by radio communication. Feel free to ask more!
Hello sir, you are at such a height from containers how you grab and drop at exact position/trucks. Is there any automation or camera down there
For this generation crane, the operation is entirely operator controlled.
Would you be allowed to listen to music while doing this? Really get into the rhythm haha.
Oh yes we do! And sometimes we play “the best parts” over the crane speakers! 🔊 😄
@@Container_World😂😂 I make too bro all lasher men are dancing

Sir, there are 4 buttons on the joystick. Could u tell me about them?

Thise = those....
+PressTube Thanks for the tip! I'll make another video with all the functions, and a startup maybe?
+Joris Cleiren Yep, if that involves some procedures it would be nice ;) And maybe a 'peek' in the engineroom? Or how is that called in a gantry crane? :) Or attach the camera at the end of the boom so you see the trolley moving instead of the camera mounted on the trolley?
+PressTube Good tips! And sure I will make an other video in different angels to get a better view how it all works;)
What is startup, is it u starting the gantry crane
Thanks for sharing, I would like to learn this job!
Thanks for your awesome comment! Where do you live?
@@Container_World I'm in Sydney Australia my friend!
@@Container_World Hi Container World, I have made an enquiry with DP World in Sydney but without experience very difficult to get a start in the industry I believe!
sweet deal when did your port get a new gantry crane!
+JOE BILLINGS 2 weeks ago? They are still adjusting this cranes. 2 engineers are working on it while we are working with it.
How do you know where each container has to go?
On the ground, a team member diligently tracks the location. Communication between the ground, crane operator, and team members in the yard waiting to receive the container is continuous. The ship has a report breaking down where the container (all are numbered) is located and any safety hazard it may pose. The team member enters the container details into a computer registry, reviews the plan for the vessel, and based on the container, a stack is selected. Some are placed back on the ship later after the selected containers are moved out. Others are stacked in the yard appropriately to be accessed by the trucking community.
What is it you're doing by moving the right hand joystick left and right? Locking and unlocking the container?
wfrankwalshiv Correct! It is to lock/unlock!
Can you give a rundown of how your handles work? Is the side to side motion you do on your hoist your lock and unlock? If it is, that's pretty cool. Do you have a separate handle for your gantry?
+Art19 yes the right joystick side motion is to (un)lock. What do you mean with separate handle?
How do you gantry your crane? On our cranes in Seattle our hoist handle serves as our gantry or we have a separate handle to gantry up and down the dock. I guess I should call handles joysticks.
+Art19 I will make a video how all the controls work soon ;)
What about a camera on the spreader (if thats what its called) so you can see it entering the cells as you are loading/unloading?
+hsvenforcer good idea! But it is Not possible for safety reasons. I can ask my foreman/hatchman to capture a video on deck?
+Joris Cleiren sounds great
Sir I'm from India I would like to study this course and enter offshore crane operator field. Could you please give some tips
Yeah sure! Ask whatever you want to know! I'll help you out
Where I want to study, which is best institute, how can I choose the institute, how can i find job after that course, what are the certificates I really need for this job ?
It depends on the country you live in. I have some worldwide connections, tell me where you live and what port you want to work!
@@Container_World I'm from India,in Kerala. I couldn't find any best institute. I'm ready to work where ever.
@@Container_World if I get anywhere I'm ready to go work
Sir
I am RTG operator.I have 3yer experience of RTG . I need job in port terminal.
What port do you want to work?
is AET stil lusing reach stackers for the gantry cranes
+NIX FLIX both, reach stackers and trucks
what size of ship is this one?
400miter large ship
all 4 cranes on the ship???
3 cranes! 2 gantry's and one mobile Liebherr crane
How long have the LHMs been at AET
+NIX FLIX march 2015
why are the lhms numbered 5-6
+NIX FLIX they count up every crane they buy! 5 and 6 are LHM's. The two new gantry cranes are 7 and 8!
Joris Cleiren is this cuz of the gottowalds there before
+NIX FLIX yes you got it!!
I sent hangouts messages checkem out
wow
how much do they pay you
Pretty damn good✌️😁
50 moves in 1 hour... probably???
1 move ~70seconds= (1/70)*3600= 51M/h
Ok
U should try this app called hangouts... its pretty cool ;)
+Containerloverforlife OK, how?
how can that port do 50 miles an hour when they do not come up consistently by the looks of it it's probably only 10 move to 20 miles an hour not 50 miles an hour Los Angeles port and Long Beach port only does 40 to 45 + hour
Steep channel so keep our like # 65
+Sofikoshka Thanks!
