Container

MoorMaster™ automated mooring closes the technological gap between container ships and today's highly automated facilities, and is increasingly seen as part of fully automated port design.

MoorMaster™ secures even Super Post-Panamax vessels with capacity up to 19,200 TEUs, in a matter of seconds, enabling loading operations to begin more quickly.

Benefits

Moor vessels in 30 seconds, detach in 10 seconds.
Reduced OPEX, (fuel burn, manpower operational time and maintenance), ensuring attractive return on investment.
Increased container throughput due to reduced vessel motion, (berth creep, long waves, passing vessels, etc.).
Improved STS crane productivity.
Improved operator and ship crew safety.
90% reduction in emissions during mooring due to reduced tug and vessel engine usage.
