The port technology solutions offered by Cargotec are globally recognized as the leading models for container handling. The company has focused on cutting operational costs whilst simultaneously enhancing the overall efficiency and service levels. Energy efficiency as well as sustainability has been one more 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 reach stackers, ship-to-shore cranes, empty container handlers, yard cranes, shuttle carriers, straddle carriers and terminal carriers. Cargotec's spreaders are leaders within the market in every segment of the crane spreader market as well: from ship-to-shore to yard to mobile harbour operations.
There has been a demand for better movement along rail to roads and other transport means such as barge applications. The company focus has been to develop new equipment to assist the conventional terminals and ports. Traffic should be moved 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 require machinery for handling trailers, containers and swop bodies. The intermodal operations equipment provided by Cargotec includes normal and long wheelbase reach stackers, RMG cranes, RTG cranes distribution tractors, shuttle and straddle carriers and shuttle carriers.
In addition to add port equipment solutions and technical support, 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 machinery 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 problems in a network which spans over 120 nations. Cargotec brings their solutions near the client in all places so as to be sure they have the solutions their customers need.
Whatever particular 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 will allow you to finish your jobs in a timely, efficient and safe way.
