Kalmar has been designing machine that is specifically adapted to the handling of empty containers for numerous years. Their empty container handlers are now functioning and operating all over the globe. Kalmar offers various empty container handling machines. There are a variety of units to be able to meet customer's performance, and lifting height requirements. Their range stretches from a capacity of 3 high up to 8+1 high, providing optimum balance of economy.
The containers have to be stacked and moved fast, safely and efficiently, in order for money to be earned and the job to be done. Aside from driving fast and safe, the stacking should be done independent of lifting height. Overall, it is a time-consuming job that needs accurate positioning.
The equipment are under such a rigorous working atmosphere that this places heavy demands on the stability of the equipment, mast and spreader, along with extreme user friendly abilities in the handling process. Having a clear field of vision also helps to guarantee extra safety for the operator and those working nearby.
Single Stacking
The main characteristics for single stacking machines are their high lifting speeds, overall stability and extreme flexibility. The single handling concept begins at 3 high and stacking up to 8 high. These equipment feature twistlock attachments that are a common item on many Kalmar machinery all over the world. Some of the important factors to consider when choosing single stacking machinery are the limitations in ground space and the high demands on selectivity.
Double Stacking
An essential step in increasing the production in the empty container handling business comes from double stacking of containers. The double stacking situation can be an extremely demanding application for the Empty Container Handler. Kalmar provides the new DCE100 unit which was particularly designed to fulfill the high stability requirements of stability and strength with margin. Stacking 2 containers at the same time is the optimum operational efficiency that tops selectivity demands.
To be able to meet a huge variety of applications, Kalmar has researched, engineered and designed numerous units of lift truck trucks.
