The port technology solutions offered by Cargotec are globally recognized as the leading units for container handling. The company has concentrated on enhancing the overall efficiency and service levels while 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 ports and terminals all around the world where container handlers utilize ship-to-shore cranes, reach stackers, yard cranes, empty container handlers, straddle carriers, terminal carriers and shuttle carriers. Cargotec's spreaders are leaders within the market in each and every segment of the crane spreader market too: from yard to mobile harbour to ship-to-shore operations.
There has been an increasing demand to move traffic from rail to roads, other modes 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 must 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 means of transport also come into play. Eventually, more intermodal terminals would be developed in the future.
In the terminals, efficient operations need equipment for handling trailers, containers and swop bodies. The intermodal operations machine offered by Cargotec includes RMG cranes, long and normal wheelbase reach stackers, straddle and shuttle carriers, RTG cranes distribution tractors and shuttle carriers.
In addition to add technical support and port equipment solutions, customers provide a huge variety of other services. Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool for example has been designed to enable customers to better analyze the equipment and handling systems that are needed for both new and currently existing terminals. The company provides a global service and sales network to be able to help their clients solve problems in a network which spans over 120 nations. Cargotec brings their solutions near the client in all places in order to be sure they have the solutions their customers require.
Whatever particular applications you require to work within, regardless of the setting, Cargotec Kalmar offers a range of solutions to help you figure it all out. Their broad variety of machines would allow you to finish your jobs in a timely, efficient and safe way.
