Port Logistics – Efficient Special Solutions

From overheight frames to lashing baskets – our products are designed for the tough demands of container handling. Reliable, durable, and perfectly adapted to the requirements of modern port operations.

Overheight Frame – OHF

The fully automatic Overheight Frame (OHF) was developed for the safe and efficient handling of oversized or out-of-gauge containers. It is picked up directly by the spreader and requires no additional power supply – the complete locking is purely mechanical via the twistlocks of the spreader.
