July 23th, a goup of clients delegation from Tanzania visited MAXTECH's factory to inspect and accept the customized 20-ft and 40-ft Type I container spreaders tailored for them. This visit was not only a "comprehensive inspection" of the customized products but also an important opportunity for both parties to deepen cooperation and discuss future projects. The scene was filled with a professional and rigorous atmosphere of technical exchange, as well as friendly and pragmatic cooperation sincerity.
On-Site Testing of Custom Spreaders: Details Demonstrate Strength, Data Confirm Quality
The client delegation, accompanied by the MAXTECH team, went straight to the testing workshop. The core of this acceptance—20-ft and 40-ft Type I container spreaders—was exclusively designed according to the special operational needs of the client's port terminal. In response to the dusty and high-humidity environment of Tanzanian ports, the surface of the spreaders adopted a three-layer anti-corrosion process of "sandblasting derusting + epoxy zinc-rich primer + wear-resistant topcoat". To adapt to the hydraulic system of the client's existing marine cranes, the connection interfaces and pressure parameters of the spreaders were adjusted in a customized manner to ensure seamless docking.
During the testing phase, technicians operated the crane to smoothly lift a 20-ft standard container with a full load of 42 tons of goods. After the spreader's automatic locking device came into contact with the corner fittings of the container, it completed locking within 0.8 seconds, and the sensor displayed the locking signal in real-time. After being lifted to a height of 3 meters, the spreader performed a 360° rotation and lateral translation, during which the shaking amplitude of the container was controlled within 5 cm. The 40-ft spreader tested subsequently also performed brilliantly. In the composite working condition of "full-load lifting - 3° tilt to simulate port ramp - precise positioning", there was no obvious deformation in the load-bearing structure of the spreader, and the stress values of key parts displayed by the on-site detector were all lower than the design threshold.
In-Depth Exchange: From Customized Products to Full-Series Solutions
The technical exchange meeting MAXTECH team first provided supplementary plans for the details raised by the client, such as the durability of the spreader coating and the localization of the operation manual, and promised to complete the operation guide before the product delivery to ensure the convenient use of port operators.
Subsequently, the focus of the exchange shifted to a broader field of cooperation. Through on-site videos and physical models, MAXTECH showed the client its full range of core products:
1. Marine port ship deck cranes: Focusing on the telescopic boom deck cranes suitable for small and medium-sized ports, their "foldable storage + lightweight boom" design can save 30% of the deck space, which is especially suitable for the new fishing port project in Tanzania mentioned by the client.
2. Multifunctional grabs: For bulk goods (coal, grain) often handled by the client's port, the operation videos of hydraulic double-jaw grabs and four-jaw grabs were shown. Their "automatic discharge angle adjustment" function can reduce material residue and improve unloading efficiency.
3. ECO Hopper (energy-saving hopper): As the core equipment of the green port solution, this hopper can reduce 80% of the unloading dust through the "buffered blanking + dust collection" integrated design, which is in line with Tanzania's requirements for environmental protection ports.
The client delegation took notes from time to time and asked in-depth questions about the wind and wave resistance performance of the deck cranes and the wear-resistant materials of the grabs. When seeing the energy consumption data of the ECO Hopper (saving 25% electricity compared with traditional equipment), the client's person in charge immediately said: "The bulk cargo terminal upgrade project we are planning is in need of such energy-saving equipment."
