The Riga-based manufacturer of heavy-lifting equipment has installed a second rail-mounted gantry (RMG) for container operations at First Dry Port Terminal in Tashkent.

Having a 10.8-metre cantilever length, 7.0 m of operating outreach and 17.1 m span between the legs, each sister RMG can lift up to 41 tonnes. The cranes are equipped with advanced control systems for maximum performance, reliability, and energy efficiency.

"The development of the First Dry Port Terminal's infrastructure, located on the historic Great Silk Road, holds strategic importance for regional economic development and enhanced trade connectivity between Asia and Europe. The terminal spans 22 hectares and features eight railway tracks with a total length of 5,300 meters, a covered customs warehouse, an open customs area, a customs control zone, and loading/unloading platforms," RIKON highlighted in a press brief.
