Equipment Overview
Heavy port logistics dictate equipment capable of continuous high-cycle operation. As a dedicated heavy duty empty container handler supplier in China, Xinghao engineers this 9-ton unit to deliver relentless diesel power.
The core powertrain integrates a genuine CUMMINS QSB 6.7 engine (configurable for Stage III or Stage IV emissions) with an American DANA 340TE17312 electronically controlled power shift transmission. This configuration generates up to 1044 Nm of torque for rapid acceleration and 30% unladen gradeability. To combat thermal loads during continuous operation, the professional cooling system features separated hot and cold air channels, increasing heat dissipation efficiency by 10%. Furthermore, the chassis undergoes strict dynamics simulation and finite element analysis, utilizing a monolithic one-piece steering axle to completely eliminate weld cracking risks under maximum operational stress.

Our product



Shipping & Global Delivery
Moving a 40-ton machine with a nearly 19-meter mast requires highly calculated global freight logistics. As a leading 9-ton diesel empty container handler factory, we provide predictable routing options:
- RORO (Roll-on/Roll-off) Shipment: The optimal and most secure method for intact delivery, where the fully assembled unit is driven directly onto the vessel deck.
- Breakbulk & Flat Rack Dismantling: For specific global routes where RORO is unavailable, the 4400 kg spreader and mast are dismounted and secured on Flat Rack containers. The main chassis is shipped via heavy-lift breakbulk. Xinghao provides complete reassembly manuals and structural bolt torque specifications for your on-site engineering teams.
Typical Project Applications
This internal combustion chassis is deployed strictly in high-throughput environments:
- Coastal Seaports & Inland Terminals: Capable of stacking empty containers up to 7-high (with custom options for 6 or 8 layers).
- Intermodal Rail Yards: High-speed loading, unloading, and transfer operations where diesel torque is required for steep ramp gradients.
- Heavy Industrial Storage: Operating continuously in harsh environments where electric charging infrastructure is currently unavailable.
Buyer FAQs
Q: Can the engine configuration meet European or North American EPA standards?
A: Yes. The CUMMINS QSB 6.7 engine is available in both Stage III and Stage IV emission configurations. You can specify the exact emission standard required for your local environmental compliance during the Cummins engine empty container handler procurement process.
Q: How does the structural design prevent chassis fatigue over time?
A: Our engineering team applies rigorous finite element analysis to reinforce high-stress zones. By utilizing a monolithic one-piece steering axle rather than a welded assembly, we physically eliminate the risk of weld cracking under the repetitive stress of 9-ton dynamic loads.
Q: What is the standard lead time and warranty for this diesel model?
A: Standard production lead time is typically 45-60 days. We provide a factory warranty of 1 year or 2000 working hours from the B/L date, supported by our global dispatch network for critical replacement parts like DANA transmission filters or Cummins engine components.
Why Source From Xinghao MHE?
Choosing the right diesel empty container handler manufacturer directly dictates your terminal's Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). Xinghao MHE avoids generic assemblies, sourcing only tier-one OEM components-including Cummins powerplants, DANA transmissions, and Kessler axles. We prioritize mechanical reliability, stringent factory load testing, and rapid spare parts availability to keep your fleet operational and your Opex predictable.
