The port technology solutions provided by Cargotec are globally recognized as the leading models for container handling. Cargotec has concentrated on cutting operational costs whilst simultaneously enhancing the overall service levels and efficiency. Energy efficiency and sustainability has been one more main focus in the development work of the company.
Cargotec's Kalmar products are the top market leaders within ports and terminals all over the world where containers are handled by empty container handlers, yard cranes, ship-to-shore cranes, reach stackers, straddle carriers, terminal carriers and shuttle carriers. Cargotec's spreaders are leaders in the market in each segment of the crane spreader market as well: from yard to mobile harbour to ship-to-shore 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 ports and terminals. Traffic needs to be transfered from roads to rail, barge and other modes due to 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 need machinery for handling swop bodies, trailers and containers. The intermodal operations machine provided by Cargotec includes RMG cranes, normal and long wheelbase reach stackers, straddle and shuttle carriers, RTG cranes distribution tractors and shuttle carriers.
Customers are offered a wide range of other services, along with port equipment solutions and technical support. For example, Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool allows customers to analyze which machine and handling systems are needed in new or existing terminals. The company offers a global sales and service network in order to help their customers solve issues in a network that spans more than 120 countries. Cargotec brings their solutions near the customer in all locations so as to be certain they have the solutions their customers need.
Regardless of the setting and specific applications you work within, Cargotec Kalmar offers many great solutions to help you figure out these problems. Their wide range of machines would enable you to complete your tasks in a safe, timely and efficient manner.
