Terex Port Solutions (TPS) has strengthened its market position in Latin America. In the past few months, terminal operators from Brazil, Haiti and Sint Maarten have purchased a total of four diesel-electric Terex Gottwald mobile harbour cranes - two Model 4 cranes in the G HMK 4406 B four-rope-grab variant and two Model 6 cranes in the G HMK 6507 two-rope-grab variant.

The versatile Model 4 cranes, supplied with mechanical grabs and automatic single-lift spreaders primarily handle coal and load and unload containers in the Brazilian Port of A?u. In the port located to the north of Rio de Janeiro, the machines with a radius up to 46 m, a maximum lifting capacity of 100 t and a 40-t grab curve, are part of what is currently one of the largest and most advanced port infrastructures in the world.

The two G HMK 6507 cranes are used in Sint Maarten and Haiti for container and general cargo handling and offer a radius up to 51 m, a maximum lifting capacity of 125 t and hoisting speeds up to 120 m/min.
