The port technology solutions provided by Cargotec are internationally recognized as the leading units for container handling. Cargotec has concentrated on improving the overall service levels and efficiency whilst simultaneously cutting operational costs. Sustainability and energy efficiency has been one more main focus in the company's development work.
Kalmar products by Cargotec are leading the market for terminals and ports all around the globe where container handlers utilize yard cranes, empty container handlers, reach stackers, ship-to-shore cranes, terminal carriers, shuttle carriers and straddle carriers. Cargotec's spreaders are leaders in the market in each segment of the crane spreader market as well: from yard to mobile harbour to ship-to-shore 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 terminals and ports, the overall requirement to develop new machines has been a focus of the company. Traffic should 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 modes of transport also come into play. Eventually, more intermodal terminals would be developed in the future.
In the terminals, efficient operations need machinery for handling swop bodies, trailers and containers. The intermodal operations machinery provided by Cargotec includes normal and long wheelbase reach stackers, RMG cranes, shuttle and straddle carriers, RTG cranes distribution tractors and shuttle carriers.
In addition to add technical support and port equipment solutions, customers provide a wide range of other services. Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool for instance has been designed to enable customers to better analyze the equipment and handling systems which are needed for both new and currently existing terminals. The company provides a worldwide sales and service network to be able to help their customers solve issues in a network that spans over 120 nations. Cargotec brings their solutions close to the client in all locations so as to be sure they have the solutions their clients require.
Whatever specific applications you require to work within, regardless of the environment, Cargotec Kalmar provides a variety of solutions to help you figure it all out. Their different types of machinery would allow you to finish your jobs in an efficient, safe and timely manner.
