The port technology solutions provided by Cargotec are internationally known as the leading units for container handling. Cargotec has concentrated on improving the overall service levels and efficiency whilst simultaneously cutting operational costs. Energy efficiency and sustainability has been another main focus in the development work of the company.
Kalmar products by Cargotec are leading the market for terminals and ports all over the world where container handlers use ship-to-shore cranes, reach stackers, yard cranes, empty container handlers, shuttle carriers, straddle carriers and terminal carriers. Cargotec's spreaders are leaders within the market in every segment of the crane spreader market too: from mobile harbour to ship-to-shore to yard operations.
There has been an increasing demand to move traffic from rail to roads, other means of transport and barge applications. In addition to conventional ports and terminals, the overall requirement to develop new machines has been a focus of the company. Traffic should be transfered from roads to rail, barge and other modes due to the fact the existing road infrastructure could not handle the increasing level of traffic. Environmental reasons for these means of transport also come into play. In the future, more intermodal terminals will be developed in the future.
In the terminals, efficient operations need equipment for handling swop bodies, trailers and containers. The intermodal operations equipment offered by Cargotec includes long and normal wheelbase reach stackers, RMG cranes, straddle and shuttle carriers, RTG cranes distribution tractors and shuttle carriers.
Clients are provided with a huge range of other services, in combination with port equipment solutions and technical support. For example, Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool enables customers to analyze which equipment and handling systems are needed in new or existing terminals. The company provides a global service and sales network to be able to help their customers solve issues in a network which spans over 120 countries. Cargotec brings their solutions close to the customer in all places so as to be sure they have the solutions their customers need.
Regardless of the setting and specific applications you work within, Cargotec Kalmar offers a lot of great solutions to help you figure out these problems. Their various types of machines would allow you to finish your tasks in a safe, timely and efficient way.
