Cargotec's port technology solutions have been internationally popular container handler units. Cargotec has focused on cutting operational costs while simultaneously improving the overall service levels and efficiency. Sustainability as well as energy efficiency has been one more main focus in the development work of the company.
Cargotec's Kalmar products are the top market leaders within terminals and ports all over the globe where containers are handled by empty container handlers, yard cranes, 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 too: from yard to mobile harbour to ship-to-shore 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 need to develop new machinery has been a focus of the company. Traffic has to be transfered from roads to rail, barge and other means due to the fact the existing road infrastructure could not handle the increasing level of traffic. Environmental reasons for these modes of transport also come into play. In the future, more intermodal terminals would be developed in the future.
In the terminals, efficient operations need machinery for handling swop bodies, trailers and containers. The intermodal operations machine provided by Cargotec consists of RMG cranes, long and normal wheelbase reach stackers, shuttle and straddle carriers, RTG cranes distribution tractors and shuttle carriers.
Clients are offered a wide range of other services, along with technical support and port equipment solutions. Like for instance, Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool allows clients to analyze what machine and handling systems are needed in new or existing terminals. The company offers a worldwide sales and service network to be able to help their customers solve problems in a network which spans over 120 countries. Cargotec brings their solutions close to the customer in all locations so as to be sure they have the solutions their clients need.
