The port technology solutions offered by Cargotec are internationally known as the leading models for container handling. The company has focused on improving the overall efficiency and service levels while simultaneously cutting operational costs. Sustainability as well as energy efficiency has been one more main focus in the development work of the company.
Cargotec's Kalmar products are the top market leaders in terminals and ports all around the world where containers are handled by yard cranes, empty container handlers, reach stackers, ship-to-shore cranes, terminal carriers, shuttle carriers and straddle carriers. Cargotec's spreaders are leaders in the market in each and every segment of the crane spreader market as well: 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 terminals and ports, the overall requirement to develop new machines has been a focus of the company. Traffic should be moved from roads to rail, barge and other means 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.
In the terminals, efficient operations require machines for handling swop bodies, trailers and containers. The intermodal operations machinery offered by Cargotec consists of 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, clients provide a wide variety 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 provides a worldwide service and sales network to be able to help their customers solve problems in a network that spans over 120 countries. Cargotec brings their solutions close to the customer in all locations so as to be certain they have the solutions their clients need.
Whatever particular applications you require to work within, regardless of the environment, Cargotec Kalmar offers a variety of solutions to help you figure it all out. Their different kinds of machinery would enable you to complete your jobs in a timely, effective and safe way.
