The port technology solutions offered by Cargotec are internationally recognized as the leading units for container handling. Cargotec has concentrated on cutting operational costs whilst simultaneously enhancing the overall efficiency and service levels. Sustainability and energy efficiency has been another main focus in the company's development work.
Kalmar products by Cargotec are leading the market for terminals and ports all around the globe where container handlers use yard cranes, empty container handlers, reach stackers, ship-to-shore cranes, shuttle carriers, straddle carriers and terminal 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 a demand for better movement along rail to roads and other transport means like barge applications. The company focus has been to develop new machines to assist the conventional terminals and ports. Traffic should be moved from roads to rail, barge and other modes because of 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. Eventually, more intermodal terminals will be developed in the future.
In the terminals, efficient operations need machinery for handling containers, swop bodies and trailers. The intermodal operations equipment offered by Cargotec consists of long and normal wheelbase reach stackers, RMG cranes, RTG cranes distribution tractors, straddle and shuttle carriers and shuttle carriers.
In addition to add technical support and port equipment solutions, clients provide a huge array of other services. Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool for example has been designed to allow customers to better analyze the equipment and handling systems that are needed for both new and currently existing terminals. The company offers a worldwide service and sales network in order to help their customers solve problems in a network which spans over 120 countries. Cargotec brings their solutions near the customer in all locations in order to be certain they have the solutions their customers require.
