The RGC crane, which is mechanically
a copy of the existing cranes, will also be highly automated including remote operation.
“This is an important step in the
expansion for APMT MVII. Kuenz and ABB once again proved to be the best solutions for the handling of our containers. The combination between the reliable automatic handling provided by ABB and Kuenz’s aerodynamic cranes makes this a sustainable choice. This allows us to not only become the most modern gateway to Europe but also the most efficient and sustainable. We look forward to a successful cooperation,” Ssaid Hans Jongejan, project director, MVII-Expansion. Kuenz is characterized by the traditional
APM Terminals MVII signs largest European expansion contract with Kuenz & ABB. APMT MVII we have been able to
deliver the highest level of automation resulting in a terminal with high productivity and low maintenance needs. We are excited to take this proven concept to the next level, delivering the efficiency gains that are only available to the leaders of terminal automation,” added Clara

advantages of the aerodynamic single girder crane - not only by the lowest power consumption, but also by being the lightest crane that still offers full performance at operating wind speeds of up to 90 km/h. The first cranes are scheduled for
delivery in 2025. By mid-2027, a total of 116 stacking cranes and three rail cranes will be in operation at APMT MVII, making one of Europe’s largest container terminals even more efficient.
