CS4003

Onboard Cargo Elevators

 

Efficient cargo handling is critical for modern vessel operations, and the CS4003 cargo elevator is designed to meet the demanding needs of industrial processing plants and onboard systems. This advanced solution ensures seamless integration into your production processes, if you're looking to improve space utilization, reduce manpower, or accelerate workflows.

Automate processes

Cargo elevators and other onboard lift options

Our elevators are designed specifically for use on vessels to facilitate the transportation of goods, products, and cargo between decks. The cargo elevator is an important part of your onboard factory design. In addition we offer other types of onboard elevators to suit your needs, including:

  • Offloading elevators: These elevators automate the offloading of goods from the cargo hold to the dockside, streamlining the process and reducing dependency on external equipment. Learn more about offloading elevators here.
  • Packaging elevators: These elevators are designed to transport packaged goods between different production areas, ensuring seamless workflow and optimizing space. Learn more about packaging elevators here.

How cargo elevators improve onboard and offloading efficiency

A cargo lift elevator is a system designed to transport the finished heavy products from the production deck to the cargo and tween deck. Cargo lifts provide automated and efficient transport that save both time and resources.  By integrating a cargo lift or plant elevator into your system, you reduce manual labor needs to as few as two workers.

Onboard transportation

Our elevators streamline the transport of products between decks, ensuring fast and efficient movement while automating pallet loading from factory to cargo. By integrating elevators into your palletizing line, you can save time, reduce manpower costs, and optimize production space for a more efficient workflow.

Easy Offloading of Goods

At port, the offloading cargo elevator automates the transportation of goods from the cargo hold to the quayside. This means that products can be moved directly onto trucks at the quayside, enabling quicker turnaround and reducing dependency on external equipment.

Additionally, the elevator is equipped to handle heavy lift cargo, such as pallets and equipment, with a working load limit of up to 4,000 kg. Its robust design also ensures reliable performance under challenging conditions, including extreme temperatures and high workloads

Cost, Installation and Maintenance

How much does a cargo elevator cost?

The cost of installing an elevator varies depending on factors such as design specifications, vessel type, and whether it’s a retrofit or part of a new build. Customization plays a significant role in pricing, as systems are tailored to meet specific operational needs. Carsoe works closely with clients to deliver cost-effective solutions that align with their budgets without compromising on performance.

How long does it take to install?

Installation timelines are influenced by the complexity of the system. For standalone elevators, the process is relatively quick. However, integrating additional components such as conveyor systems, palletizing lines or adapting the elevator to other existing factory layouts may extend the timeframe.

Carsoe oversees the entire process, from initial consultation to final installation, ensuring that the elevator is optimized for your operational requirements. Our team ensures a smooth installation with minimal disruption to your workflow.

Maintenance of cargo elevators

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and performance of your elevators, including inspecting the elevator track for wear and tear. Carsoe offers support to ensure:

  • Routine inspections for safety and reliability.
  • Optimization of conveyor systems integrated with the elevators.
  • Replacement or repair of spare parts for chains, rollers, and tracks etc.

By choosing a Carsoe cargo lift or onboard elevator, you gain access to high-quality maintenance solutions for uninterrupted operations.
