Follow on Google News | R. Baker & Son: Cranes and RiggingPort of New York and New Jersey home to some of world’s largest container cranes.
By: R. Baker & Son The cranes, shipped by manufacturer ZMPC from Shanghai aboard a specially-designed freighter, arrived in New Jersey in May 2014. They stand 561 feet tall and, with their longer arms, are capable of rigging higher stacks of containers, and can extend farther to unload big ships that are 22 containers wide. Previous PNCT cranes were capable of rigging a maximum of 18 rows of containers. The $500 million PNCT expansion is part of a larger effort that includes dredging of channels in New York Harbor as well as a $1.3 billion project to raise the height of the Bayonne Bridge to allow larger ships to reach terminals in Newark and Elizabeth. Container cranes are generally classified by their lifting capacity and size of the ships they can unload. “Panamax” About R. Baker & Son All Industrial Services R.
