MANNESMANN Dematic has installed a prototype Transmann portal container-handling crane in the yard at Wetter, near Dortmund. The Transmann features a rigid load guidance system that enables it to handle containers under catenary.

Designed to handle 20 to 45ft containers weighing up to 41 tonnes, the Transmann can transfer up to 40 unit loads per hour between road and rail. Suitable for small terminals, the Transmann can also be used in larger automated facilities for high-speed container transfer.
