Cargotec's port technology solutions have been globally recognized container handler models. Cargotec has concentrated on cutting operational expenses while simultaneously enhancing the overall efficiency and service levels. Sustainability and energy efficiency has been another main focus in the company's development work.
Cargotec's Kalmar products are the top market leaders within ports and terminals all around the world where containers are handled by reach stackers, ship-to-shore cranes, yard cranes, empty container handlers, straddle carriers, terminal carriers and shuttle carriers. Cargotec's spreaders are leaders within the market in each segment of the crane spreader market as well: from mobile harbour to ship-to-shore to yard 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 terminals and ports, the overall need to develop new machines has been a focus of the company. Traffic has to be moved 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 modes of transport also come into play. In the future, more intermodal terminals will 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 RMG cranes, long and normal wheelbase reach stackers, shuttle and straddle carriers, RTG cranes distribution tractors and shuttle carriers.
In addition to add technical support and port equipment solutions, customers provide a huge array of other services. Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool for instance has been designed to allow clients to better analyze the machine and handling systems which are needed for both new and currently existing terminals. The company offers a global sales and service network to be able to help their customers solve problems in a network that spans over 120 countries. Cargotec brings their solutions close to the client in all places so as to be certain they have the solutions their customers need.
