Cargotec's port technology solutions have been internationally popular container handler models. The company has concentrated on cutting operational expenses whilst simultaneously improving the overall service levels and efficiency. Energy efficiency as well as sustainability has been another main focus in the company's development work.
Kalmar products by Cargotec are leading the market for terminals and ports all over the globe 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 each segment of the crane spreader market too: from mobile harbour to ship-to-shore to yard operations.
There has been a demand for better movement along rail to roads and other transport modes like barge applications. The company focus has been to develop new machinery to assist the conventional terminals and ports. Traffic needs to be transfered from roads to rail, barge and other modes due to the fact the existing road infrastructure is unable to handle the increasing level of traffic. Environmental reasons for these modes of transport also come into play. Eventually, more intermodal terminals will be developed in the future.
In the terminals, efficient operations need machinery for handling containers, swop bodies and trailers. The intermodal operations equipment provided by Cargotec consists of RMG cranes, normal and long wheelbase reach stackers, RTG cranes distribution tractors, shuttle and straddle carriers and shuttle carriers.
In addition to add technical support and port equipment solutions, clients provide a huge range of other services. Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool for example has been designed to allow customers to better analyze the machine and handling systems that are required for both new and currently existing terminals. The company offers a global service and sales network in order to help their clients solve problems in a network that spans more than 120 nations. Cargotec brings their solutions close to the customer in all places so as to be sure they have the solutions their customers require.
Regardless of the setting and particular applications you work within, Cargotec Kalmar offers a lot of great solutions to help you figure out these issues. Their wide variety of machinery will allow you to finish your jobs in an effective, safe and timely way.
