HOISTCAM for straddle carriers
Straddle carriers play a vital role in container terminals and intermodal yards, moving and stacking containers quickly and efficiently. However, due to their size and operating height, straddle carrier operators often have limited visibility of the spreader, container corners, and nearby personnel or equipment, especially in tight stacking rows or low-light conditions. HoistCam wireless camera systems address this challenge by giving operators a direct, real-time video feed of the load and surrounding area, dramatically improving lift precision and operational safety.
HoistCam units are rugged, weather-resistant, and designed for heavy-duty environments. With simple magnetic mounting and wireless transmission, they can be installed quickly on the spreader or upper frame of the straddle carrier. Operators receive a live feed directly in the cab, enabling faster container alignment, safer movement, and greater confidence during stacking and unstacking operations.
For terminal operators and logistics managers, HoistCam reduces damage to containers and equipment, decreases reliance on ground spotters, and improves cycle times. The optional HoistCam Director platform adds remote monitoring capabilities, allowing yard supervisors and safety officers to observe operations in real time for better oversight, documentation, and incident review.
Whether in a busy port terminal or an inland container yard, HoistCam transforms straddle carrier operations by reducing blind spots and enabling more efficient container handling. It’s a powerful upgrade that supports safety, accuracy, and productivity in high-throughput logistics environments.
