For numerous years, Kalmar has been developing particularly made equipments designed to handle empty containers. Kalmar's empty container handlers could be found in operation all around the globe. Kalmar provides various empty container handling machinery. There are different units to be able to meet client's performance, and lifting height requirements. Their range stretches from a capacity of 3 high up to 8+1 high, offering optimum balance of economy.
The containers have to be moved and stacked fast, safely and efficiently, in order for money to be earned and the task to be done. Aside from driving fast and safe, the stacking needs to be completed independent of lifting height. Overall, it is a time-consuming task which requires accurate positioning.
These machines are normally placed in tough working environment with heavy demands and loads being placed on the stability of the spreader and the mast, in addition to strain on the abilities during the handling process. Having an unobstructed field of vision also helps to ensure extra safety for the operator and individuals working in the vicinity.
Single Stacking
The main characteristics for single stacking machines are their high lifting speeds, extreme flexibility and overall stability. The single handling concept starts at 3 high and stacking up to 8 high. These machinery feature twistlock attachments which are a common item on many Kalmar machines all around the world. Several of the key factors to take into account when choosing single stacking machinery are the high demands on selectivity and the limitations in ground space.
Double Stacking
Double stacking the containers is another 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 fulfill the high stability requirements of strength and stability with margin. Stacking 2 containers simultaneously is the optimum operational efficiency that tops selectivity demands.
To be able to meet a huge variety of applications, Kalmar has researched, designed and engineered numerous models of lift truck trucks.
