Cargotec's port technology solutions have been internationally popular container handler models. The company has focused on improving the overall efficiency and service levels while simultaneously cutting operational costs. Sustainability as well as 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 reach stackers, ship-to-shore cranes, 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 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 such as barge applications. The company focus has been to develop new machines to assist the conventional ports and terminals. 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 modes 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 machine provided by Cargotec includes long and normal wheelbase reach stackers, RMG cranes, RTG cranes distribution tractors, straddle and shuttle carriers and shuttle carriers.
