More TEU per hour. Same crew.
Cranium for STS Cranes
Cranium makes your STS cranes faster and more precise without requiring you to hire additional staff. With real-time detection, as well as assistance and automation features, you can increase throughput and gain greater predictability for your cargo handling processes.
In terminal operations, every minute counts
Crane downtime means lost handling capacity, rising costs, and dissatisfied shipping companies.
Every second counts in port operations. Cranium optimizes container flow right at the dock.




Four Reasons Why Your Terminal Will Benefit
More TEU per hour, shorter vessel turnaround times, and a terminal that leads the competition.
Higher throughput per crane
They handle more TEU per hour without additional staff and without higher operating costs.
Greater Security
Cranium tracks containers, vehicles, people, and hatch covers in real time. Containers and infrastructure are protected from damage.
Predictable Processes
With intelligent assistance technology, you can reduce disruptions and improve reliability in your daily cargo handling operations.
More Competitive
Shorter lay times make your terminal more attractive to shipping lines and ensure long-term cargo handling volumes.
