Kalmar has been developing equipment which is specifically adapted to the handling of empty containers for many years. Their empty container handlers are nowadays operating and functioning all over the world. Kalmar offers a huge variety of empty container handling machinery. There are a variety of models to be able to meet client's performance, and lifting height requirements. Their range stretches from a capacity of 3 high up to 8+1 high, offering optimum balance of economy.
The containers need to be stacked and moved quickly, safely and efficiently, in order for money to be made and the job to be completed. Aside from driving fast and safe, the stacking must be completed independent of lifting height. In general, it is a time-consuming task which needs precise placement.
These machinery are usually placed in harsh working conditions with heavy loads and demands being placed on the stability of the mast and the spreader, in addition to strain on the abilities in the handling process. Having an unobstructed field of vision also helps to ensure extra safety for the operator and those working in the vicinity.
Single Stacking
The main characteristics for single stacking machines are their high lifting speeds, extreme flexibility and overall stability. The single handling concept begins at 3 high and stacking up to 8 high. These equipment feature twistlock attachments which are a common item on many Kalmar machines all around the globe. Some of the key factors to take into consideration when choosing single stacking machines are the high demands on selectivity and the limitations in ground space.
Double Stacking
Double stacking the containers is another important step in increasing the productivity in the empty container handling operations. For an empty container handler, the double stacking situation can present an extremely demanding application. Kalmar provides the new DCE100 model that was particularly made to fulfill the high stability requirements of stability and strength with margin. Stacking 2 containers at the same time is the optimum operational efficiency which tops selectivity demands.
Kalmar has researched, designed and engineered numerous units of lift truck trucks so as to meet a huge variety of applications.
