Cargotec's port technology solutions have been internationally popular container handler models. The company has focused on improving the overall service levels and efficiency whilst simultaneously cutting operational costs. Sustainability as well as energy efficiency has been another main focus in the company's development work.
Kalmar products by Cargotec are leading the market for ports and terminals all around the world where container handlers use reach stackers, ship-to-shore cranes, empty container handlers, yard cranes, terminal carriers, shuttle carriers and straddle carriers. Cargotec's spreaders are leaders in the market in every segment of the crane spreader market as well: from ship-to-shore to yard to mobile harbour operations.
There has been an increasing demand to move traffic from rail to roads, other modes of transport and barge applications. In addition to conventional ports and terminals, the overall requirement to develop new equipment has been a focus of the company. Traffic must be moved from roads to rail, barge and other modes due to the fact the existing road infrastructure could not deal with the increasing level of traffic. Environmental reasons for these means of transport also come into play. Eventually, more intermodal terminals would be developed in the future.
Efficient operations in the terminals require machinery for handling containers, swop bodies and trailers. The intermodal operations machinery provided by Cargotec includes long and normal wheelbase reach stackers, RMG cranes, RTG cranes distribution tractors, shuttle and straddle carriers and shuttle carriers.
In addition to add port equipment solutions and technical support, customers provide a huge array of other services. Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool for example has been designed to enable clients to better analyze the machine and handling systems that are required for both currently existing and new terminals. The company offers a worldwide sales and service network to be able to help their customers solve issues in a network which spans more than 120 nations. Cargotec brings their solutions close to the client in all places so as to be sure they have the solutions their clients need.
Regardless of the environment and specific applications you work within, Cargotec Kalmar provides lots of great solutions to help you figure out these problems. Their broad variety of equipment will allow you to finish your jobs in a timely, efficient and safe manner.
