Cargotec's port technology solutions have been globally recognized container handler models. The company has concentrated on improving the overall service levels and efficiency while simultaneously cutting operational expenses. Sustainability as well as energy efficiency has been one more main focus in the company's development work.
Cargotec's Kalmar products are the top market leaders in terminals and ports all over the globe where containers are handled by reach stackers, ship-to-shore cranes, empty container handlers, yard cranes, straddle carriers, terminal carriers and shuttle carriers. Cargotec's spreaders are leaders in the market in every segment of the crane spreader market too: from mobile harbour to ship-to-shore to yard 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 ports and terminals, the overall requirement to develop new equipment has been a focus of the company. Traffic must 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 means of transport also come into play. Eventually, more intermodal terminals will be developed in the future.
In the terminals, efficient operations require machinery for handling containers, swop bodies and trailers. The intermodal operations machinery offered by Cargotec includes long and normal wheelbase reach stackers, RMG cranes, RTG cranes distribution tractors, straddle and shuttle carriers and shuttle carriers.
Clients are provided with a wide variety of other services, in combination with technical support and port equipment solutions. Like for instance, Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool enables customers to analyze what equipment and handling systems are needed in new or existing terminals.
