The port technology solutions offered by Cargotec are globally known as the leading units for container handling. The company has concentrated on cutting operational expenses while simultaneously enhancing the overall service levels and efficiency. Energy efficiency and sustainability has been another main focus in the development work of the company.
Kalmar products by Cargotec are leading the market for ports and terminals all around the globe where container handlers utilize empty container handlers, yard cranes, ship-to-shore cranes, reach stackers, shuttle carriers, straddle carriers and terminal carriers. Cargotec's spreaders are leaders in the market in every segment of the crane spreader market too: from ship-to-shore to yard to mobile harbour operations.
There has been a demand for better movement along rail to roads and other transport means such as barge applications. The company focus has been to develop new machinery to assist the conventional ports and terminals. Traffic has to be moved from roads to rail, barge and other modes due to the fact the existing road infrastructure could not handle the increasing level of traffic. Environmental reasons for these modes 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 swop bodies, trailers and containers. The intermodal operations equipment provided by Cargotec consists of normal and long wheelbase reach stackers, RMG cranes, RTG cranes distribution tractors, straddle and shuttle carriers and shuttle carriers.
Clients are provided with a huge variety of other services, in addition to port equipment solutions and technical support. For instance, Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool enables customers to analyze which machinery and handling systems are required in existing or new terminals. The company offers a worldwide service and sales network to be able to help their customers solve issues in a network that spans more than 120 countries. Cargotec brings their solutions close to the client in all places in order to be certain they have the solutions their customers require.
