For numerous years, Kalmar has been developing particularly made equipments designed to handle empty containers. Kalmar's empty container handlers can be found in operation all over the world. Kalmar provides a huge range of empty container handling equipment. There are a variety of units in order to meet lifting height requirements and, client's performance. Their range stretches from a capacity of 3 high up to 8+1 high, offering optimum balance of economy.
In order for money to be earned and a task to be done successfully, the containers need to be moved and stacked quickly, safely and efficiently. Other than driving fast and safe, the stacking must be done independent of lifting height. In general, it is a time-consuming task that needs accurate placement.
The machinery are under such a rigorous working atmosphere that this places heavy demands on the stability of the machinery, mast and spreader, along with extreme user friendly abilities in the handling process. Having an unobstructed field of vision also helps to guarantee extra safety for the operator and individuals working in the vicinity.
Single Stacking
For single stacking equipment, the main characteristics comprise their high lifting speeds, overall stability and extreme flexibility. The single handling concept starts at 3 high and stacking up to 8 high. These machines feature twistlock attachments which are a common item on many Kalmar equipment throughout the globe. Several of the key factors to take into account when thinking about single stacking machines are the high demands on selectivity and the limitations in ground space.
Double Stacking
Double stacking the containers is one more important step in increasing the productivity in the empty container handling operations. For an empty container handler, the double stacking situation can present an extremely demanding application. Kalmar provides the new DCE100 unit that was specifically designed to perform the high stability requirements of strength and stability with margin. Stacking 2 containers at the same time is the optimum operational efficiency that tops selectivity demands.
In order to meet a huge variety of applications, Kalmar has researched, designed and engineered many models of lift truck trucks.
