Cargotec's port technology solutions have been globally popular container handler models. The company has focused on enhancing the overall efficiency and service levels while simultaneously cutting operational costs. Energy efficiency and sustainability has been one more main focus in the company's development work.
Cargotec's Kalmar products are the top market leaders in terminals and ports all around the world where containers are handled by ship-to-shore cranes, reach stackers, yard cranes, empty container handlers, straddle carriers, terminal carriers and shuttle carriers. Cargotec's spreaders are leaders in the market in each 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 need to develop new machines has been a focus of the company. Traffic has to be transfered from roads to rail, barge and other means because of the fact the existing road infrastructure could not deal with the increasing level of traffic. Environmental reasons for these means 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 trailers, containers and swop bodies. The intermodal operations machinery provided by Cargotec includes long and normal wheelbase reach stackers, RMG cranes, shuttle and straddle carriers, RTG cranes distribution tractors and shuttle carriers.
In addition to add port equipment solutions and technical support, clients provide a wide array of other services. Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool for instance has been designed to allow customers to better analyze the machine and handling systems that are required for both currently existing and new terminals. The company provides a worldwide service and sales network to be able to help their customers solve problems in a network that spans more than 120 countries. Cargotec brings their solutions near the customer in all places in order to be sure they have the solutions their clients need.
Regardless of the environment and particular applications you work within, Cargotec Kalmar provides a lot of great solutions to help you figure out these problems. Their different kinds of equipment would enable you to finish your jobs in a timely, efficient and safe manner.
