Cargotec's port technology solutions have been globally popular container handler units. Cargotec has focused on cutting operational expenses while simultaneously enhancing the overall service levels and efficiency. Energy efficiency and sustainability has been another main focus in the company's development work.
Cargotec's Kalmar products are the top market leaders in terminals and ports all over the globe where containers are handled by empty container handlers, yard cranes, ship-to-shore cranes, reach stackers, shuttle carriers, straddle carriers and terminal carriers. Cargotec's spreaders are leaders within the market in each segment of the crane spreader market too: from yard to mobile harbour to ship-to-shore operations.
There has been a demand for better movement along rail to roads and other transport modes like barge applications. The company focus has been to develop new machines to assist the conventional ports and terminals. Traffic must be transfered from roads to rail, barge and other means because of the fact the existing road infrastructure could not deal with the increasing level of traffic. Environmental reasons for these modes of transport also come into play. Eventually, more intermodal terminals will be developed in the future.
Efficient operations in the terminals require machinery for handling trailers, containers and swop bodies. The intermodal operations machinery offered by Cargotec includes long and normal wheelbase reach stackers, RMG cranes, straddle and shuttle carriers, RTG cranes distribution tractors and shuttle carriers.
Customers are provided with a huge range of other services, along with technical support and port equipment solutions. For instance, Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool enables customers to analyze which machine and handling systems are needed in new or existing terminals. The company provides a worldwide sales and service network to be able to help their clients solve problems in a network that spans over 120 nations. Cargotec brings their solutions close to the customer in all locations in order to be sure they have the solutions their clients require.
