Cargotec's port technology solutions have been globally popular container handler units. The company has focused on cutting operational costs while simultaneously improving the overall efficiency and service levels. Sustainability and energy efficiency 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 world where containers are handled by yard cranes, empty container handlers, reach stackers, ship-to-shore cranes, 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 yard to mobile harbour to ship-to-shore 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 machinery has been a focus of the company. Traffic must be moved from roads to rail, barge and other means due to the fact the existing road infrastructure could not 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.
Efficient operations in the terminals need machinery for handling containers, swop bodies and trailers. The intermodal operations equipment offered by Cargotec includes 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, customers offer a huge variety of other services. Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool for instance has been designed to allow clients to better analyze the equipment and handling systems which are needed for both currently existing and new terminals. The company provides a global sales and service network to be able to help their customers solve problems in a network that spans over 120 nations. Cargotec brings their solutions close to the customer in all places in order to be certain they have the solutions their clients need.
Whatever particular applications you require to work within, regardless of the setting, Cargotec Kalmar provides a variety of solutions to help you figure it all out. Their various kinds of machines would enable you to finish your jobs in a safe, timely and efficient manner.
