Complete solution
95% of the world’s cargo is transported on ships in containers, from the clothes we are wearing to the mobile phone we have in our hand. As you read this, there are between 5-6 million containers currently travelling around the world on ships, trains or trucks.
So how are these containers unloaded at their final destinations? Joloda International can provide a complete container loading/unloading solution.
The system comprises the container jacking system – 4 free standing posts capable of lifting 35 tonnes. The individual legs locate into the corner casting of the container and lock into position via conventional twist locks. All legs are connected to a central control box and operated by a pendant.
This system is said to work out at 25% the cost of a conventional fork truck or cranes typically used to unload these containers.
This system lifts the container on and off the truck so when the container is on the ground, the Joloda container one shot loading system is then used to load/unload the goods in/out of the container.
The Joloda removable ‘One Shot System’ can move loads of up to 28 tons. Skates run down a galvanised steel track, which is placed both on the loading platform and onto the container floor. The track is elevated by a hydraulic pump, lifting the skate, which then raises the load clear of the platform deck. The ‘live’ load can then be easily rolled into the container. Once loaded both the skates and the tracks can be removed.
Using the complete Joloda container system eradicates the need to use top or side loading containers which are not readily available, all can be used in standard end loading, low cost containers which save around £1000 per container.
All equipment is removed after use and stored for when next needed.
One customer in Russia moves pipes from St Petersburg for the oil industry. His load is around 25 tonnes and before our system was pushing and dragging the load in and out causing product damage and delays in loading. Now with our system the load is safely and securely moved in and out of the container in just a few minutes.
The Joloda system is used worldwide by companies moving steel fabrications, steel sections, wood, machinery pipes and any long heavy awkward loads up to 28 tonnes.
Customers include Claas Machinery, Gulf Extrusion, Thyssen Krupp, Vestas, Maybe Bridge, Corus Steel, Schlumberger and VCK.
