Cargotec's port technology solutions have been globally recognized container handler units. The company has focused on enhancing the overall service levels and efficiency whilst 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 ports and terminals all over the globe where containers are handled by empty container handlers, yard cranes, reach stackers, ship-to-shore cranes, straddle carriers, terminal carriers and shuttle carriers. Cargotec's spreaders are leaders within the market in each segment of the crane spreader market too: from mobile harbour to ship-to-shore to yard 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 ports and terminals, the overall requirement to develop new equipment 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 handle the increasing level of traffic. Environmental reasons for these modes of transport also come into play. In the future, more intermodal terminals would be developed in the future.
Efficient operations in the terminals require machinery for handling containers, swop bodies and trailers. The intermodal operations machinery provided by Cargotec includes RMG cranes, normal and long wheelbase reach stackers, RTG cranes distribution tractors, shuttle and straddle carriers and shuttle carriers.
In addition to add port equipment solutions and technical support, customers offer a wide range of other services. Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool for instance has been designed to allow clients to better analyze the machine and handling systems that are required for both new and currently existing terminals. The company offers a worldwide service and sales network to be able 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 need.
Regardless of the environment and specific applications you work within, Cargotec Kalmar provides lots of great solutions to help you figure out these issues. Their broad variety of machines would enable you to complete your tasks in a timely, effective and safe manner.
