+25% Productivity

SMT Shipping increased their handling rate from 1000 tonnes per hour to 1250 tonnes per hour after their first month.

That’s a 25% increase in productivity!

SMT Shipping had 3 grabs available for bauxite, but started exploring the best possible grab solution for their new iron ore transhipment.

It was a challenge to even consider buying a new grab, but the new grab dominated all the other grabs

SMT achieved results to be proud of:

• The immense productivity increase in their continuous transhipment process lead to a Return On Investment period of under 3 months.
• Zero breakdowns after transferring 6 million tons in the first year and easier maintenance because of direct access from the ground.
• A strengthened partnership that already opened doors for future projects to tackle the unique challenges of open sea operations.
