![]() ![]() The capacity of a Panamax vessel is 6,300 TEU. In the meantime, however, the Panama Canal is large enough to allow ships with a draught of 15.20 metres to pass through. However, a Panamax vessel is also larger than a feeder vessel and can have a draught of up to 12.04 metres. Neopanamax and New Panamax sail through the new lock route and are considerably larger. Panamax are vessels that fit into the Panama Canal until the expansion in 2016 and can use the two smaller locks. Internationally, a feeder is always assumed to be below 3,000 TEU. Accordingly, one speaks of Panamax, Post-Panamax, New Panamax and Ultra-Large. If the vessels become somewhat larger, the Panama Canal represents the reference value. In English, seven categories are distinguished, beginning with the “small feeder” and the “feeder” and including the “feedermax” in the feeder vessel sector. In this way, neither the costly container gantry cranes nor cranes on land are required.Īmong the container vessels, the feeder vessel is found at the lower end of the scale within the classification. The reason for this equipment is that smaller ports often do not have sufficient capacity and therefore these are delivered directly on the feeder ship. This includes loading booms as well as crane hooks, winches and ropes, with which the cargo can be easily brought ashore. In some places, values between 300 and 1,000 TEU are also given as a guide.įor comparison, it should be noted that the largest container vessels can carry more than 20,000 TEU, so that a cargo can be distributed among up to 20 feeder ships.Ī characteristic feature of a feeder vessel is the presence of its own loading gear. Converted into tons, this corresponds to about 1,500 tons, although the value may vary. Conversely, goods from the inland also reach the loading ports directly via the rivers and canals and corresponding feeder ships.Ī feeder vessel in Europe generally has a capacity of around 100 TEU, which is the unit for standard containers. The containers or goods are then loaded onto a feeder vessel which takes them to their destination, from where they may be transported by truck. The starting point are the large deep-sea vessels, which are not able to call at inland ports or even smaller seaports.įor this reason, there are a few larger ports that act as “hubs” and ensure distribution. Swedenborg (1688-1772).A feeder vessel is used in so-called transshipment. That oil denotes good, may be seen above (AC 886) lamps denote love.īack to Words index, Back to Artifact words index Author: E.

That it is Babel that lays waste, may be seen above (AC 1327). Where an empty vessel has a similar meaning. Nebuchadnezzar king of Babel hath devoured me, he hath troubled me, he hath made me an empty vessel ( Jer. 14:2, 3) Įmpty vessels denote knowledges wherein there is no truth, and also truths wherein there is no good.

The offering in a clean vessel is representative of the external man relatively to the internal that which brings the gift is the internal man the clean vessel is the external man that is in agreement, thus it denotes the things in the external man, which are memory-knowledges, knowledges, and doctrinal things. That vessels signify the externals of spiritual things, is also plain from other passages in the Word, as in Isaiah:-Īs the sons of Israel bring their offering in a clean vessel into the house of Jehovah ( Isa. The vessels of gold and of silver denote the knowledges of good and truth, which were profaned for the Chaldeans denote those who are in knowledges, but such as have been profaned by the falsities that are in them (AC 1368) so that the knowledges serve them to worship gods of gold and silver for Belshazzar is called king of the chaldeans in this same chapter ( Daniel 5:30). ![]()
