The port technology solutions offered by Cargotec are internationally known as the leading models for container handling. The company has focused on enhancing the overall service levels and efficiency while simultaneously cutting operational expenses. Energy efficiency and sustainability has been another main focus in the development work of the company.
Cargotec's Kalmar products are the top market leaders within terminals and ports all around the globe where containers are handled by empty container handlers, yard cranes, reach stackers, ship-to-shore cranes, shuttle carriers, straddle carriers and terminal carriers. Cargotec's spreaders are leaders within the market in every segment of the crane spreader market too: from mobile harbour to ship-to-shore to yard 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 machinery to assist the conventional ports and terminals. Traffic must be moved from roads to rail, barge and other means 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 will be developed in the future.
In the terminals, efficient operations need machines for handling trailers, containers and swop bodies. The intermodal operations equipment offered by Cargotec includes RMG cranes, normal and long wheelbase reach stackers, shuttle and straddle carriers, RTG cranes distribution tractors and shuttle carriers.
In addition to add port equipment solutions and technical support, customers provide a wide array of other services. Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool for instance has been designed to enable clients to better analyze the machinery and handling systems that are needed for both currently existing and new terminals. The company offers a worldwide sales and service network to be able to help their customers solve issues in a network which spans over 120 countries. Cargotec brings their solutions near the customer in all places in order to be sure they have the solutions their clients need.
Regardless of the environment and specific applications you work within, Cargotec Kalmar provides a lot of great solutions to help you figure out these problems. Their wide range of machinery would enable you to finish your jobs in a safe, timely and effective manner.
