A straddle carrier straddles the container, lifts it, carries it and stacks it, all with one machine. The UZX-SC comes in three models: the 40 t UZX-SC40, the 60 t UZX-SC60 and the 80 t UZX-SC80, which stacks up to 5 containers high. Each model is available with a diesel or electric drive, and the inner width and lifting height are adapted to your buildings and yard.
The diesel version works outdoors without a charging point and refuels on site, for long shifts. The electric version, with lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO₄) batteries and a permanent magnet synchronous motor, is quiet and produces no exhaust, so it also suits noise-sensitive sites. The structure is verified by ANSYS simulation, with a service life of over 20 years, and the electrical system has IP67 protection.

The machine has a tall frame with wheels on both sides and passes over the container like a gate. The spreader or chain slings lower, grip the container, and hydraulic cylinders lift it between the legs. With the load raised, the machine travels at up to 50 m/min to the set-down point and places the container on the ground, on a truck or on top of another container. The 6 steering modes, including sideways travel and turning on the spot, let it into narrow aisles, and the hydraulic system has oil temperature and level sensors and magnetic filtration, so any problem is flagged early.
It lifts, carries and stacks with a single machine, with no forklift and no extra crane.
Six steering modes for narrow aisles and complex manoeuvres.
The telescopic frame adjusts its height to pass through existing buildings.
The electric version with LiFePO₄ batteries is quiet and produces no exhaust while working.
It is used to move containers in factory yards, in prefabricated and modular construction, in the container yards of logistics companies, in container terminals, ports and shipping areas, anywhere containers or heavy loads must be moved and stacked without a fixed crane.
The UZX-SC40 is for 40 ft containers of up to 40 t and 3.2 m aisles. The UZX-SC60 carries 60 t, with an inner width of 3.7 m. The UZX-SC80 carries 80 t on 8 wheels and stacks up to 5 containers high. Choose the diesel version for large outdoor yards without a charging point, and the electric version where noise and emissions matter or where work can be planned around charging.
The price depends on the model, the diesel or electric drive, the spreader and options such as the remote control or corrosion protection. Send us the weight and type of containers, the stacking height and a sketch of the yard, and a Uzinex engineer will prepare a quote for the right configuration.

„We do stainless-steel metal fabrication dedicated to restaurant kitchens. The UZINEX equipment was a radical change: modernization, an increase in production and quality.”
„I had no idea, I was completely clueless. And you started to explain to me. You told me what technologies to choose, what packaging to produce, what would work better on the market.”
„We use a single person who can operate 3-4 machines. Before, we needed 3-4 people to do the same thing.”
„We have multiple challenges in making special structures that serve our systems, and the laser welding machine solution helped us enormously.”
„Laser welding on stainless is something else, it's a completely different thing. The quality of the machines is undeniable: the samples say it all.”
„With Uzinex, I felt very well protected by the assistance they provided. When you have a whole shift stalled and you need someone to answer quickly, it matters enormously.”
„The proof that everything went well is that the equipment now works. We have over three years of experience with no problems. Or when there were issues, there was support. We're satisfied with the collaboration.”
„I can do even 5 boxes for one person, I can also do 10 boxes. Which other firms can't do. That is, they'd have to change dies, set up a whole 12-hour affair.”
„Whether I called at 2 in the morning or at 9 in the morning, the problems got solved. We're satisfied and we'll work together again.”
„A good, smooth collaboration. We always had support and help.”
„We're among the top producers in Romania for this product. I wouldn't have imagined that when I started, but things fell into place.”
„On price and quality ratio, they were the best price and the best quality on the market. We got along well and we're satisfied.”
Six technology directions we integrate turnkey: from plug & play IIoT sensors, to cobots, predictive maintenance, optical inspection, MES connectivity and custom industrial software.
See in real time how much each machine produces and how long it sits idle. We fit sensors on any equipment, new or old, and within a few hours you have the OEE dashboard on your phone. No complex wiring, no production downtime. The first concrete step toward digitalization, with ROI visible from the very first month.
Solve your labor shortage without tripling your costs. The cobot works safely alongside your people (palletizing, feeding the CNC, welding) while you recover the investment in 12-18 months. Prices 30-40% below European distributors, with installation and programming included from us.
Stop waiting for things to break. Our algorithms analyze sensor data and tell you exactly which part will fail and when, and we bring it to your production line before the breakdown. Zero unplanned downtime, zero contractual penalties, complete operational peace of mind.
Eliminate defects before they reach the customer. Our cameras inspect every part at speeds no operator can match, detecting sub-millimeter defects. They mount onto your existing line, with no modifications. Ideal if you produce for export and have strict quality clauses.
Connect your machines to your office, regardless of brand or age. Our gateway automatically translates the data from any machine into your ERP's format: no manual entry, no paper forms, no human error. The manager sees production live, the operator receives digital instructions.
Have a process that no off-the-shelf software can solve? We build custom industrial applications: from tailored SCADA panels and HMI interfaces, to production planning systems, lot traceability and automated reporting. The code is yours, it runs on your servers, with no monthly subscriptions or vendor lock-in.
