The port technology solutions offered by Cargotec are globally recognized as the leading models for container handling. The company has concentrated on improving 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 company's development work.
Cargotec's Kalmar products are the top market leaders within ports and terminals all around the globe where containers are handled by reach stackers, ship-to-shore cranes, yard cranes, empty container handlers, terminal carriers, shuttle carriers and straddle carriers. Cargotec's spreaders are leaders within the market in each 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 modes such as barge applications. The company focus has been to develop new machines to assist the conventional ports and terminals. Traffic should be transfered from roads to rail, barge and other modes due to the fact the existing road infrastructure could not deal with the increasing level of traffic. Environmental reasons for these modes of transport also come into play. In the future, more intermodal terminals will be developed in the future.
In the terminals, efficient operations require equipment for handling containers, swop bodies and trailers. The intermodal operations equipment provided by Cargotec consists of normal and long wheelbase reach stackers, RMG cranes, straddle and shuttle carriers, RTG cranes distribution tractors and shuttle carriers.
In addition to add technical support and port equipment solutions, customers offer a wide array of other services. Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool for example has been designed to enable clients to better analyze the machine and handling systems that are required for both currently existing and new terminals. The company offers a global sales and service network to be able to help their customers solve issues in a network that spans more than 120 nations. Cargotec brings their solutions near the customer in all locations so as to be sure they have the solutions their clients need.
Whatever particular applications you require to work within, regardless of the environment, Cargotec Kalmar provides a range of solutions to help you figure it all out. Their different kinds of machinery would allow you to complete your tasks in an efficient, safe and timely manner.
