Abstract

Reach stackers are efficient and maneuverable machinery for an overload of overall containers in cargo terminals and ports today. Such machinery design determines the practical interest of the engineering industry specialists. However, the lack of information in open sources about structural or kinematic diagrams of equipment control mechanisms and recommendations for their calculation does not allow an effective approach to the creation and update of reach stackers. We developed the design procedure of the reach stacker control system, which considers the kinematic and geometric parameters of the container spreader, as a result of the conducted research. It can be used in the design stages of mechanisms for spreader lateral displacement, extension of the spreader sections, spreader inclination in the vertical plane, container fixation by spreader, spreader rotation, lifting-lowering and telescoping of the boom, as well as during the real operation modes of reach stackers in cargo terminals and ports.
