Cargotec's port technology solutions have been internationally popular container handler models. Cargotec has focused on cutting operational costs whilst simultaneously improving the overall service levels and efficiency. Energy efficiency as well as sustainability has been another main focus in the development work of the company.
Cargotec's Kalmar products are the top market leaders in ports and terminals all over the globe where containers are handled by ship-to-shore cranes, reach stackers, yard cranes, empty container handlers, straddle carriers, terminal carriers and shuttle carriers. Cargotec's spreaders are leaders within the market in each segment of the crane spreader market too: from ship-to-shore to yard to mobile harbour operations.
There has been an increasing demand to move traffic from rail to roads, other modes of transport and barge applications. In addition to conventional ports and terminals, the overall requirement to develop new machinery has been a focus of the company. 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. In the future, more intermodal terminals will be developed in the future.
Efficient operations in the terminals need equipment for handling trailers, containers and swop bodies. The intermodal operations machine provided by Cargotec includes RMG cranes, long and normal wheelbase reach stackers, RTG cranes distribution tractors, shuttle and straddle carriers and shuttle carriers.
In addition to add port equipment solutions and technical support, clients provide a huge range of other services. Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool for instance has been designed to allow customers to better analyze the equipment and handling systems which are required for both new and currently existing terminals. The company offers a worldwide service and sales network to be able to help their clients solve problems in a network which spans over 120 nations. Cargotec brings their solutions close to the client in all locations 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 various types of equipment would enable you to finish your jobs in a timely, efficient and safe manner.
