PowerAlign

PowerAlign is Cavotec’s mobile, rail-guided Cable Management System (CMS) engineered to align the vessel’s shore power connection point with a standardized quay-side interface. PowerAlign provides a compact, efficient, and highly flexible solution for managing high-voltage shore power cables for container vessels. The system combines a fixed quay-edge cable reel with a trolley-mounted junction box that travels along dedicated rails, enabling seamless coverage of up to 150 meters from a single feeding point and extendable further by adding additional units. Key Benefits Mobile vessel alignment: rail-mounted JB trolley enables precise positioning along the quay. Compact, easy-to-install solution requiring minimal quay space and no interference with crane or fender operations. Scalable coverage up to 150 m, expandable with additional PowerAlign modules. Enables vessel generators to be shut down, reducing noise and air emissions during port stays. Remote-controlled operation for safe, efficient alignment with the vessel’s shore connection hatch. Key Features Fully compliant with IEC 80005-1 (HVSC), including Annex A and Annex D requirements. Fixed quay-edge cable reel designed to accommodate 140 m active cable length, with compact footprint and partial overhang for minimal quay obstruction. Rail-guided JB trolley driven by an electric motor and Dyneema rope winch, ensuring smooth, precise movement. Socket box equipped with IEC 80005 Annex D-compliant receptacles with protective covers, visual and audible alarms, and stainless-steel construction.

PLC-based control architecture with inverter-driven motors for cable reel and trolley motion. Rail system in 3-m modular sections, installed above fenders, designed to prevent cable drop into the water and equipped with integrated anchoring points.

PowerFeed Container

Cavotec’s PowerFeed for Container Terminals enables safe and reliable shore power connections for container vessels, allowing them to switch off auxiliary engines while berthed. By eliminating shipboard emissions during port stays, PowerFeed helps terminals and port authorities meet sustainability goals and improve air quality in surrounding communities. Tailored to the operational needs of container terminals, PowerFeed offers fast, high-capacity electrical connections with minimal impact on quayside operations. Its robust, marine-grade construction ensures long service life and resistance to harsh port conditions, while the system’s modular design allows easy adaptation to different berth layouts and vessel sizes. Key Benefits Reduces vessel emissions and noise at container terminals. Safe and efficient high-voltage connection for container ships. Modular and flexible design for new or existing berths. Built for harsh marine environments with minimal maintenance. Proven Cavotec shore power technology used in major ports worldwide.

PowerCover

PowerCover is a steel cover solution suitable to be installed on marine environments allowing an easy and safe access to pits and vaults, and at the same time protects the contents from vehicular loads, shocks, falling objects and bad weather. Key benefits Easy to operate: 1-man operation Safe and secure operation with no slam design Low Opex: Maintenance free and 40 years design life Key Features: Dimensions: For Cruise PowerFeed: 4782 mm x 1450 mm For Container PowerFeed: 5009mm x 1504 mm Material: Hot Dip Galvanized Steel No Slam design Hold open bar Assisted Lifting with max lifting force 25kg Load Rating: D400 as per EN124

Connectors & PowerUnits

Panzerbelt

Panzerbelt® is a proven cable protection system designed to safeguard power cables from mechanical damage, debris, and spillage in ports, container terminals, shipyards, and heavy industry sites. The system features a continuous semi-flexible belt made of rubber with inlaid steel reinforcement, which lies over a channel cast in the quay. One edge of the belt is fixed to the quay while the other is lifted by a cable guide and belt-lifting device fitted to cranes, combining strength, flexibility, and durability. Originally introduced in 1976 to replace antiquated steel trench covers, Panzerbelt® is now in operation at over 550 installations worldwide, with more than 280 km of belt installed. It efficiently protects cables under all types of cross-traffic from container yard vehicles, prevents spillage from entering the cable channel, and eliminates above-ground hazards, all with minimal maintenance. Applications: Ship-to-shore (STS) cranes Electrified rubber-tyred gantry (E-RTG) cranes Container terminals, ports, shipyards, steel mills, and other heavy industry environments Key Benefits: Replaces steel trench covers, reducing trip hazards and maintenance Supports smooth, quiet operation with no limitation on crane travel speeds Two versions: Standard Panzerbelt® for light traffic, Super Panzerbelt® for heavy traffic Corrosion-resistant construction for dockside environments Exceptional cable protection from mechanical damage, debris, spillage, sunlight, and personnel contact Panzerbelt® combines decades of practical experience with innovative design, delivering a durable, low-maintenance solution that keeps port and industrial operations running safely and efficiently.

Turn Over Anchor

Cavotec’s Turnover Anchor system provides a robust and user-friendly solution for connecting and managing power cables in port and terminal applications such as STS, E-RTG, and ASC cranes. Each system integrates a stainless steel turnover anchor, access cover, junction box, and connectors, ensuring a secure and efficient interface between fixed and mobile equipment. Available in single or double configurations, the Turnover Anchor allows one or more cranes to operate on the same power block—optimizing space and reducing cable tension. The system’s assisted opening mechanism (gas spring or counterweight) enables safe, single-operator handling and simplified maintenance. A fibreglass pit ensures quick installation, while the drum system maintains optimal cable alignment and minimises mechanical stress, resulting in longer cable lifetime and reduced maintenance requirements.
