Before the arrival of the goods in the warehouse are made preparations - define the unloading, prepare pallets, machinery, etc. While unloading vehicles must adhere strictly to the rules of loading and unloading operations, paying attention to the special marking of cargo and handling marks. Violation of rules causes damage to goods and injury.

For the unloading containers from the train, it will be suitable to use overhead crane. An overhead crane, also known as a bridge crane, is a type of crane where the hook-and-line mechanism runs along a horizontal beam that it runs along two widely separated rails. Overhead cranes typically consist of either a single beam or a double beam construction.

Since the representation type of technique refers to a form of lifting equipment, the principle of the bridge crane is very similar to these machines. The main distinguishing feature - is that all load bearing elements of construction are based directly on the paved path crane. Moving supporting beam comes on rails, which are mounted on the inner walls of the warehouse. On the bridge there is a movement trolley, which is equipped with a special winch. In many instances the cost of a bridge crane can be largely offset with savings from not renting mobile cranes in the construction of a facility that uses a lot of heavy process equipment.

When you receive the goods in rail containers perform the following operations:

1.              Checking the integrity of the seals and the technical condition of the container (for damage and breakages).
2. Slinging and moving container unloading ramp.
3. Move the container in the zone of acceptance of goods.
4. Opening of the container.
