Cargotec's port technology solutions have been globally popular container handler models. Cargotec has focused on improving the overall efficiency and service levels whilst simultaneously cutting operational costs. Energy efficiency and sustainability has been one more main focus in the development work of the company.
Cargotec's Kalmar products are the top market leaders within ports and terminals all around the globe where containers are handled by ship-to-shore cranes, reach stackers, yard cranes, empty container handlers, straddle carriers, terminal carriers and shuttle carriers. Cargotec's spreaders are leaders within the market in each and every segment of the crane spreader market as well: 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 equipment to assist the conventional ports and terminals. Traffic should be moved from roads to rail, barge and other means because of 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 will be developed in the future.
In the terminals, efficient operations require machinery for handling swop bodies, trailers and containers. 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 offered a wide variety of other services, in combination with technical support and port equipment solutions. For example, Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool allows clients to analyze which machine and handling systems are required in existing or new terminals.
