Cargotec's port technology solutions have been globally recognized container handler models. The company has concentrated on enhancing the overall efficiency and service levels while simultaneously cutting operational costs. Sustainability and energy efficiency has been another main focus in the company's development work.
Cargotec's Kalmar products are the top market leaders within terminals and ports all over the world where containers are handled by ship-to-shore cranes, reach stackers, yard cranes, empty container handlers, shuttle carriers, straddle carriers and terminal 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 a demand for better movement along rail to roads and other transport modes like barge applications. The company focus has been to develop new machinery to assist the conventional terminals and ports. Traffic should be transfered from roads to rail, barge and other means due to the fact the existing road infrastructure could not 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.
Efficient operations in the terminals need equipment for handling containers, swop bodies and trailers. The intermodal operations machine provided by Cargotec includes RMG cranes, normal and long wheelbase reach stackers, RTG cranes distribution tractors, shuttle and straddle carriers and shuttle carriers.
In addition to add technical support and port equipment solutions, customers offer a huge variety of other services. Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool for instance has been designed to enable customers to better analyze the equipment and handling systems that are required for both new and currently existing terminals. The company provides a worldwide service and sales network to be able to help their clients solve issues in a network which spans over 120 nations. Cargotec brings their solutions near the customer in all places so as to be sure they have the solutions their customers need.
Regardless of the environment and particular applications you work within, Cargotec Kalmar offers many great solutions to help you figure out these issues. Their broad range of equipment will allow you to complete your jobs in an efficient, safe and timely manner.
