The port technology solutions provided by Cargotec are internationally recognized as the leading units for container handling. The company has concentrated on enhancing the overall efficiency and service levels while simultaneously cutting operational costs. Sustainability and energy efficiency 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 world where container handlers use ship-to-shore cranes, reach stackers, yard cranes, empty container handlers, straddle carriers, terminal carriers and shuttle carriers. Cargotec's spreaders are leaders in the market in every 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 requirement to develop new machinery has been a focus of the company. Traffic needs to be transfered from roads to rail, barge and other modes 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 would be developed in the future.
In the terminals, efficient operations require machines for handling swop bodies, trailers and containers. The intermodal operations machinery offered by Cargotec consists of RMG cranes, long and normal wheelbase reach stackers, straddle and shuttle carriers, RTG cranes distribution tractors and shuttle carriers.
Clients are provided with a wide range of other services, along with technical support and port equipment solutions. For instance, Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool allows clients to analyze which machinery and handling systems are needed in new or existing terminals.
