The port technology solutions provided by Cargotec are internationally known as the leading models for container handling. Cargotec has concentrated on enhancing the overall service levels and efficiency while simultaneously cutting operational expenses. Energy efficiency as well as sustainability has been one more 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 world where containers are handled by reach stackers, ship-to-shore cranes, yard cranes, empty container handlers, straddle carriers, terminal carriers and shuttle carriers. Cargotec's spreaders are leaders in 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 means of transport and barge applications. In addition to conventional terminals and ports, the overall need to develop new equipment has been a focus of the company. Traffic has to be transfered from roads to rail, barge and other means because of 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. Eventually, more intermodal terminals would be developed in the future.
In the terminals, efficient operations need machines for handling swop bodies, trailers and containers. The intermodal operations machine provided by Cargotec consists of normal and long wheelbase reach stackers, RMG cranes, shuttle and straddle carriers, RTG cranes distribution tractors and shuttle carriers.
In addition to add port equipment solutions and technical support, clients offer a huge array of other services. Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool for instance has been designed to allow customers to better analyze the machinery and handling systems that are required for both new and currently existing terminals. The company offers a global sales and service network in order to help their customers solve issues in a network that spans more than 120 nations. Cargotec brings their solutions near the client in all locations so as to be certain they have the solutions their clients require.
Regardless of the environment and particular applications you work within, Cargotec Kalmar offers a lot of great solutions to help you figure out these issues. Their different kinds of equipment would allow you to finish your jobs in an efficient, safe and timely way.
