Spreader Repair & Overhaul Services

Container spreaders operate in demanding environments and are subject to continuous wear and tear. After a certain number of operating hours or twistlock cycles, maintenance and repair become essential to ensure safe, reliable and efficient performance.
At Stinis, every repair project begins with a comprehensive inspection. Based on the inspection results, we prepare a detailed maintenance and repair proposal tailored to the condition of the spreader. Repairs can be carried out either at the customer’s terminal or in our dedicated repair facility in the Netherlands.
Our goal is simple: to return your spreader to optimal operating condition while minimizing the risk of future failures and unplanned downtime.

Comprehensive Inspection and Assessment
Before any maintenance or repair work is performed, our technicians conduct a thorough pre-inspection. During this process, all mechanical, electrical, hydraulic and functional systems are carefully examined to determine their condition and operational suitability.
Once the agreed work has been completed, a final inspection is carried out to verify that the spreader meets all performance and safety requirements. For spreaders repaired at the Stinis workshop, an extensive endurance test is typically conducted before delivery.
What We Inspect
Our experienced engineers inspect all critical mechanical, electrical and hydraulic systems to assess the spreader’s condition, performance and reliability. The inspection covers structural components, functional testing, safety system verification and key performance measurements. We carefully check for wear, damage, corrosion and other signs that may affect safe and efficient operation. Based on our findings, we provide a clear condition report with practical maintenance and repair recommendations. This helps operators identify potential issues early, reduce downtime, extend equipment lifespan and ensure safe, efficient and reliable performance in daily operations.

Repair Proposal and Execution
After the inspection has been successfully completed, Stinis prepares a detailed cost overview and scope of work. This proposal outlines all recommended repairs, component replacements and maintenance activities required to restore the spreader to peak condition.
The findings and recommended actions are discussed with the customer, who can then choose the most suitable service approach:
- On-site repair and maintenance at the terminal
- Workshop repair and overhaul at the Stinis repair facility in the Netherlands
Once approved, all agreed work is carried out by experienced Stinis technicians using original parts and proven repair procedures.
