Cargotec's port technology solutions have been internationally recognized container handler units. The company has concentrated on cutting operational costs while simultaneously enhancing the overall service levels and efficiency. 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 over the globe where containers are handled by empty container handlers, yard cranes, ship-to-shore cranes, reach stackers, terminal carriers, shuttle carriers and straddle carriers. Cargotec's spreaders are leaders within the market in each and every segment of the crane spreader market as well: from ship-to-shore to yard to mobile harbour 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 need to develop new machinery has been a focus of the company. Traffic should be transfered from roads to rail, barge and other means because of the fact the existing road infrastructure is unable to 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 need machines for handling containers, swop bodies and trailers. The intermodal operations machinery offered by Cargotec consists of RMG cranes, normal and long wheelbase reach stackers, RTG cranes distribution tractors, shuttle and straddle carriers and shuttle carriers.
Clients are offered a huge array of other services, in combination with technical support and port equipment solutions. Like for example, Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool allows customers to analyze what machinery and handling systems are required in new or existing terminals. The company provides a worldwide sales and service network in order to help their clients solve problems in a network which spans more than 120 nations. Cargotec brings their solutions close to the customer in all places so as to be sure they have the solutions their customers need.
