For numerous years, Kalmar has been developing specially made machines engineered to handle empty containers. Kalmar's empty container handlers can be found in operation all around the world. Kalmar offers a wide variety of empty container handling equipment. There are various models to be able to meet customer'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 moved and stacked fast, efficiently and safely, in order for money to be earned and the job to be done. Other than driving safe and fast, the stacking needs to be done independent of lifting height. In general, it is a time-consuming job which requires accurate placement.
These machines are often placed in harsh working conditions with heavy demands and loads being placed on the stability of the spreader and the mast, as well as strain on the abilities during the handling process. Having an unobstructed field of vision also helps to ensure extra safety for the operator and individuals working in the vicinity.
Single Stacking
For single stacking machinery, the main characteristics comprise their high lifting speeds, overall stability and extreme flexibility. The single handling concept starts at 3 high and stacking up to 8 high. These machines feature twistlock attachments which are a common item on many Kalmar machines all around the world. Some of the key factors to consider when choosing single stacking machinery are the limitations in ground space and the high demands on selectivity.
Double Stacking
Double stacking the containers is one more vital step in increasing the production in the empty container handling operations. For an empty container handler, the double stacking situation may present a really demanding application. Kalmar provides the new DCE100 model that was specially made to fulfill the high stability requirements of stability and strength with margin. Stacking 2 containers simultaneously is the optimum operational effectiveness which tops selectivity demands.
Kalmar has researched, engineered and designed numerous units of lift truck trucks so as to meet a huge variety of applications.
