Excellent Performance, Meeting Diverse Operational Needs

XCMG container handlers offer powerful stacking capabilities. For example, the XCH80 model boasts a maximum lifting capacity of 8 tons and can easily stack containers up to seven levels, more than enough to meet the needs of most container stacking operations. Whether operating in the busy storage yards of large ports or in smaller terminals with limited space, XCMG container handlers can easily handle these tasks. They also excel in driving performance. With a maximum speed of 27 km/h (empty/loaded), these handlers can move quickly within the yard, reducing waiting time and significantly improving operational efficiency. With a minimum turning radius of just 6m, the stacker can maneuver flexibly even in narrow passages, demonstrating excellent maneuverability. Furthermore, a minimum ground clearance of 300mm, a maximum gradeability of 30%, an approach angle of 28°, a departure angle of 39°, and a braking distance of 7m ensure stable operation in a variety of complex site conditions, demonstrating its high adaptability.

Advanced Technology, Leading the Industry

Efficient Power and Energy-Saving Technology

XCMG container stackers continuously innovate in their power systems. Some models utilize advanced lithium iron phosphate battery packs, which offer the advantage of high capacity. Combined with a potential energy recovery system, they provide long-lasting and stable power, ensuring continuous operation for extended periods. For example, the XCMG E-series electric stacker can easily handle diverse operating scenarios, including the high-intensity operations at ports and terminals and railway freight yards. Its three-motor drive technology, with the operating motor directly connected to the hydraulic pump, delivers superior performance. To further improve energy recharge efficiency, some models are equipped with a dual-charger fast-charging function. Using a 300kW international dual-charger DC charging station, the charging current reaches up to 400A, significantly reducing charging time. XCMG also excels in energy conservation. For example, by monitoring hydraulic system pressure and user operating speed requirements (i.e., handle angle and throttle signal), it automatically identifies dynamic power requirements and proactively adjusts engine speed to ensure optimal operation within the engine's operating range, achieving global dynamic power matching and energy conservation. Furthermore, the load-sensitive hydraulic system automatically adjusts oil pump output flow based on load demand, avoiding overflow losses and achieving high energy efficiency.

Precise Control and Safety Technology

In terms of operational control, XCMG container stackers utilize a sophisticated hydraulic system and intelligent control technology, enabling accurate cargo positioning and smooth operation, ensuring safe and accurate handling. For example, their minimum stable lifting speed is less than 1.5mm/s, ensuring smooth movement and effectively preventing cargo sway. Safety is always a top priority in XCMG's product design. Dynamic anti-tilt technology monitors the equipment's tilt in real time and immediately takes measures to prevent any rollover accidents if any anomaly is detected. Automatic fire extinguishing technology provides a strong barrier to operational safety. If a fire hazard occurs in areas such as the engine compartment, the system automatically detects and initiates a fire extinguishing procedure. Hydraulic fall prevention technology prevents cargo from falling in the event of a hydraulic system failure, ensuring the safety of both personnel and cargo. Furthermore, some models are equipped with intelligent systems such as 360-degree panoramic imaging, collision warning, and container number recognition, providing the equipment with "smart eyes" that allow operators to fully understand the surrounding environment, further enhancing operational safety and efficiency.

Comfortable Operation, Reduced Labor Intensity

XCMG has fully considered the operator's work experience and incorporated numerous user-friendly features into the equipment's design. The control elements are strategically arranged, with commonly used buttons within easy reach, making operation easy and reducing operator fatigue. The driver's cab is equipped with intelligent, high-power air conditioning with heating and cooling, featuring a three-dimensional air duct layout, offering a wide temperature range and fast response times, creating a comfortable working environment for the operator. The spacious cab features a steering wheel and a shock-absorbing, suspended seat that can be adjusted to a variety of positions. Multiple cushioning pads with large contact surfaces on the underbody minimize fatigue during extended operations. The panoramic front view and large, unobstructed glass roof provide excellent visibility for the operator, while a rear observation window further facilitates observation of the rear of the equipment.

Widely Used, Contributing to Global Logistics Development

XCMG container stackers are widely used in ports, yards, and other locations around the world. At Shandong Port, the batch of XCMG pure electric stackers, with their zero-emission, high-efficiency, and intelligent features, are contributing to the efficient operation of container yard operations. During operation, they operate quickly, steadily, accurately, and efficiently, reducing overall energy consumption by over 50% compared to traditional diesel equipment. A single unit can save over 400,000 yuan in energy costs annually. This not only improves operational efficiency but also injects significant green momentum into the port's sustainable operations. At Lianyungang Port, the introduction of XCMG's all-electric stackers represents a solid step toward building a world-class smart and green port. These products achieve zero emissions even under the high-energy-consuming conditions of frequent container transfers, saving an estimated 230,000 yuan per year in operating costs compared to fuel-powered equipment. This truly achieves energy conservation, emission reduction, and increased efficiency.
