Port Of Duluth To Be First

Containerized Great Lakes Port

The Port of Duluth will be the first Great

Lakes port to offer shippers a specialized con- tainer handling facility complete with a Pa- oeco Portainer® and a new container marshal- ing area.

The crane built by Paceco, Alameda, Calif., a division of Fruehauf Corporation, is a 30- long-ton capacity Economy Portainer, which has been especially designed for Great Lakes and other ports. It has an 84-foot outreach, 22-foot backreach, and rides on rails 52 feet 5 inches between centers.

Equipped with a Quick Change Headblock, the crane can use either a telescopic spreader for 20-foot, 35-foot, or 40-foot long ANSI con- tainers, or can be changed in minutes to a cargo beam with swivel hook to handle palletized car- go or general cargo, including steel bundles.

Because of the Portainer's controlled straight- line operation, it will handle general cargo faster than conventional equipment.

The new crane will be installed at the Sea- way Port Authority of Duluth's Clure Public

Marine Terminal adjoining the container mar- shaling area.
