Mitsui has delivered a 30.5-ton capacity container crane to the City of Tokyo for the Shinagawa wharf, built as a Mitsui-Paceco portainer under license. With an earlier Mitsui crane at Kobe's Maya wharf, Japan's two main container ports now have matching equipment, giving Japanese operators similar cranes at both ends of their route since Paceco cranes serve Los Angeles and Oakland.
Mitsui Shipbuilding & Engineering Co., Ltd. recently delivered a 30.5-ton capacity container handling crane to the City of Tokyo, for installation at the Shinagawa wharf in the port of Tokyo. The crane is the Mitsui-Paceco type portainer manufactured by Mitsui under licensing agreement with Paceco.
With a similar container-handling crane manufactured earlier by Mitsui and installed at the Maya wharf in the Port of Kobe, Japan's two major container-handling ports of Tokyo and Kobe are now equipped with Mitsui-Paceco type container-handling cranes. The Japanese containership operators now have similar cranes at both ends of their trade route, as Paceco-type container-handling cranes manufactured by Paceco are being used at the U.S. ports of call - Los Angeles and Oakland.
Besides portainers, Mitsui's agreement with Paceco covers the manufacture of many other types of cranes for various purposes.
