Terex cranes for Tanzanian terminal
Terex Port Solutions (TPS) has received an order to supply two Terex ship-to-shore cranes (STS) to Tanzania International Container Terminal Services (TICTS), a member of Hutchison Port Holdings Limited (HPH), a leading port investor, developer and operator. The double-box boom structure STS will be manufactured at TPS? site in Xiamen, PR China, and the machines are due to be commissioned by the end of 2016. TICTS, situated in the capital Dar-es-Salaam, is Tanzania?s largest container terminal. As TICTS is the major logistics gateway to Eastern, Central and Southern Africa, it must meet the challenge of constantly increasing handling rates. The two new STS cranes will help TICTS to enhance the productivity of its operations significantly.
