The port technology solutions offered by Cargotec are globally known as the leading units for container handling. Cargotec has focused on cutting operational costs while simultaneously improving the overall efficiency and service levels. Energy efficiency and sustainability has been one more main focus in the company's development work.
Kalmar products by Cargotec are leading the market for terminals and ports all over the globe where container handlers utilize yard cranes, empty container handlers, ship-to-shore cranes, reach stackers, terminal carriers, shuttle carriers and straddle carriers. Cargotec's spreaders are leaders within the market in every 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 modes such as barge applications. The company focus has been to develop new machines to assist the conventional ports and terminals. Traffic should be transfered from roads to rail, barge and other modes because of the fact the existing road infrastructure is unable to deal with 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.
Efficient operations in the terminals require machines for handling trailers, containers and swop bodies. The intermodal operations machinery provided by Cargotec includes normal and long wheelbase reach stackers, RMG cranes, shuttle and straddle carriers, RTG cranes distribution tractors and shuttle carriers.
In addition to add technical support and port equipment solutions, clients provide a huge array of other services. Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool for example 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 provides a global service and sales network in order to help their clients solve issues in a network which spans more than 120 countries. Cargotec brings their solutions close to the customer in all places so as to be certain they have the solutions their clients require.
Regardless of the setting and particular applications you work within, Cargotec Kalmar provides a lot of great solutions to help you figure out these problems. Their wide range of machinery will enable you to finish your tasks in a timely, efficient and safe manner.
