Energy supply systems for empty container handlers

In addition to the reach stacker, empty container handlers are also often found at ports, which are used for particularly flexible and efficient handling of containers. The industrial vehicles lift weights of up to 10 tons and must carry out very precise positioning. Robust and lightweight energy chains are therefore just as important here, which work reliably even under constant load.
