A rubber tire gantry (RTG) crane is a type of mobile machinery used for moving and stacking storage containers found in container ports. Its main components include crane frame, power transmission system, lifting mechanism, crane traveling mechanism, trolley traveling mechanism, and telescopic spreader. The trolley is equipped with a lifting tool and moves along its track set on the main beams to load, unload, and stack containers. The crane with tires travels around the stockyard, or other workplaces, and moves flexibly from one work site to another. With its flexibility and smooth movement, it is commonly used in stockyards and other places where box-shaped storage containers are used, and the crane can lift and move the containers from one place to another quickly and safely.
Based on type, the rubber tired gantry crane market is categorized into 8-wheeler and 16-wheeler. In 2019, the 8-wheeler segment dominated the rubber tired gantry crane market. The demand for rubber tired gantry cranes is constantly rising. There are two types for each model-the 8W and 8WA for the 8-wheeler, and the 16W and 16WA for the 16-wheeler. The main differences between the two models are the design of the anti-sway system and the number of gantry wheels. The 16-tired RTG cranes require a larger travel area. Therefore, they cannot be used in tiny spaces, while 8-tired RTG cranes are preferred in smaller spaces.
Geographically, the rubber tired gantry crane market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, South America, and the Middle East and Africa. Europe held the largest share of the global rubber tired gantry crane market, followed by Asia Pacific and North America, in 2019. Europe's ports have adopted electric RTGs for reducing pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. Government regulations in this region have enabled the adoption of electrical container handling equipment, such as carbon emission verification in maritime transportation. Also, financial transparency regarding port investments has enabled port authorities to invest strategically in port infrastructure. European nations rank among the leading importers and exporters of commodities and goods. Europe accounts for a large volume of trade in products and assets, such as machinery, vehicles, aircraft, fuels, nonferrous metals, textiles, chemicals, clothing, and crude oils. Europe ranks first in trading owing to which the region leads the global market for rubber tired gantry cranes.
