For nearly four decades of work, projects have been carried out in different countries all around the world: the United States, India, Australia, South Africa and Saudi Arabia.

As they explain in the Diario del Puerto article, one of the functions of Clamshell Grabs within maritime terminals is to handle food, such as cereals, arriving at the port within bulk carrier vessels.

R&D and innovation in the design and manufacturing of Orange Peel Grabs and Clamshell Grabs
Stemm's products undergo constant improvements to ensure their effectiveness and optimization and to provide responses to customer needs. Not only that but services associated with the daily performance of each machine are also considered, such as the Grab Connect program for predictive maintenance and remote control of potential issues. This program allows details of the machine's performance to be known, such as pressures, temperatures, power consumption, number of maneuvers performed, etc., to minimize potential issues and their costs.
"Thanks to this information, the customer can establish all corrective or update operations so that when operations start, everything is fully controlled, minimizing the possibility of unforeseen events," explains Martin Amesti, Stemm's manager. In other words, before the vessels arrive, the diagnosis of the machines can be established, and relevant corrective or updating operations can be carried out for optimized loading and unloading without errors.
Stemm also offers services such as Renewal Service, through which the owners of Orange Peel Grabs and Clamshell Grabs can obtain refurbished equipment in optimal operating conditions, or the Test Bench, where each assembled machine undergoes a series of operations and maneuvers simulating real working conditions.
