About Orts GmbH Maschinenfabrik

Our grabs are the best link between ship and shore

The company was founded by Eng. Sigvard F. Orts in 1972 as an engineering and consulting company, specialised in constructions of grabs (main business) and nearly all kind of bulk handling equipment.

In the beginning there was only construction and sales. The manufacturing took place at well known companies in Northern Germany.

In 1985 an own workshop was founded and since that time it is the ORTS GmbH Maschinenfabrik.

The company is still family-owned.

The range of products:

  • electro-hydraulic grabs
  • fully radio controlled diesel-hydraulic grabs
  • mechanical rope grabs (single rope, 2-rope, 3-rope, 4-rope system)
