Guangzhou Lichangtai Shipping Transport Co., Ltd (LCT) was founded in October 2007. It is located in Nansha District, Guangzhou – Guangdong Free Trade Zone. Lichangtai is a powerful company with diversified industry specially in providing ship design, produce and manufacture a various type of ship, ship sale and lease, import and export, ship spare parts sale, repair and maintenance technology support, marine transport in sand and stone material and other services. LCT has its own inland river self-unloading ship fleet and water engineering fleet.

Self-unloading ship is a hull with special cargo space structure and unloading equipment, can discharge cargo in a continuous way and unload materials to the dry bulk ships directly. The characteristics of a self-unloading ship include that it can control unloading operations in a centralized way and achieve high-speed automatic discharge. It is currently the world`s fastest  unloading bulk cargo ship and suitable for inland and sea transportation. 

The self-unloading ship adopts a self-unloading system with belt conveyor as the main body. The cargo space turns a hopper shape, unloads cargo from the hopper gate by the role of gravity, can feed cargo from the cargo hopper mouth to a ring-shape belt machine through pulling the hopper by man, by hydraulic pressure or pneumatic pressure, then lifts to the height of the deck and finally delivers the cargo through the conveyor belt on the unloading arm to the storage yard of receiving device on the bank.

The self-unloading ship mainly depends on high unloading efficiency and rapid turnover speed to obtain good economic benefits with low requirements to channels, also it can greatly reduce cost invested in equipment in the unloading dock, therefore, it is very effective.

1. Extensive uses: can be used for engineering transportation, transit, barge, land reclamation, dam reclamation, etc., suitable for transporting gravels, stone powder, ore, grains, coal, etc.;
2. Fast unloading speed: The unloading speed is designed based on shipbuilding tonnage and can reach 2,000 to 6,000 tons per hour; the operation efficiency is very high;
3. High flexibility: Low requirements on channel, suitable for sailing on river-ways with shallow water and more beaches, and also inland and sea transportation;
4. Strong applicability: It does not need to rely on ports or unloading terminal facilities to carry out centralized operation and rapid automatic unloading operations;
5. Fewer crew members, saving labor costs;
6. Rapid sailing speed: the speed can be up to 10 sea miles/hour;
7. High economic efficiency: Self-unloading ships solve the problem of unloading and improves economic returns.
