The port technology solutions offered by Cargotec are internationally recognized as the leading models for container handling. The company has focused on cutting operational expenses while simultaneously improving the overall efficiency and service levels. Sustainability as well as energy efficiency has been one more main focus in the development work of the company.
Kalmar products by Cargotec are leading the market for ports and terminals all around the world where container handlers utilize reach stackers, ship-to-shore cranes, empty container handlers, yard cranes, 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 machinery to assist the conventional ports and terminals. Traffic should be transfered from roads to rail, barge and other modes because of the fact the existing road infrastructure is unable to deal with 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 equipment for handling containers, swop bodies and trailers. The intermodal operations equipment provided by Cargotec includes RMG cranes, long and normal wheelbase reach stackers, shuttle and straddle carriers, RTG cranes distribution tractors and shuttle carriers.
Customers are offered a wide variety of other services, in combination with port equipment solutions and technical support. 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. The company offers a global sales and service network in order to help their clients solve issues in a network which spans more than 120 countries. Cargotec brings their solutions near the customer in all locations in order to be certain they have the solutions their customers need.
