Cargotec's port technology solutions have been globally recognized container handler models. Cargotec has focused on cutting operational costs while simultaneously improving the overall efficiency and service levels. Energy efficiency and sustainability has been one more main focus in the company's development work.
Cargotec's Kalmar products are the top market leaders in ports and terminals all over 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 in the market in each and every segment of the crane spreader market as well: from yard to mobile harbour to ship-to-shore operations.
There has been a demand for better movement along rail to roads and other transport means like barge applications. The company focus has been to develop new equipment to assist the conventional ports and terminals. Traffic needs to be transfered from roads to rail, barge and other modes due to 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. In the future, more intermodal terminals would be developed in the future.
Efficient operations in the terminals need machines for handling containers, swop bodies and trailers. The intermodal operations machinery provided by Cargotec consists of RMG cranes, normal and long wheelbase reach stackers, RTG cranes distribution tractors, shuttle and straddle carriers and shuttle carriers.
In addition to add port equipment solutions and technical support, customers provide a wide variety of other services. Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool for example has been designed to enable customers to better analyze the machine and handling systems that are needed for both new and currently existing terminals. The company provides a worldwide sales and service network in order to help their clients solve issues in a network which spans over 120 nations. Cargotec brings their solutions near the customer in all locations so as to be sure they have the solutions their clients require.
