For many years, Kalmar has been developing particularly made machines designed to handle empty containers. Kalmar's empty container handlers can be found in operation all over the world. Kalmar offers a huge variety of empty container handling machinery. There are various units to be able to meet lifting height requirements and, client's performance. Their range stretches from a capacity of 3 high up to 8+1 high, providing optimum balance of economy.
The containers have to be moved and stacked quickly, efficiently and safely, in order for money to be made and the task to be completed. Other than driving fast and safe, the stacking must be completed independent of lifting height. In general, it is a time-consuming task which requires precise positioning.
These machinery are often placed in tough working conditions with heavy loads and demands being placed on the stability of the mast and the spreader, as well as strain on the abilities during the handling process. Having a clear field of vision also helps to ensure extra safety for the operator and people working in the vicinity.
Single Stacking
For single stacking equipment, the main characteristics consist of 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 equipment all around the globe. Several of the important factors to take into consideration when thinking about single stacking equipment are the limitations in ground space and the high demands on selectivity.
Double Stacking
An important step in increasing the productivity in the empty container handling business comes from double stacking of containers. The double stacking situation could be a very demanding application for the Empty Container Handler. Kalmar provides the new DCE100 model that was specially made to perform the high stability requirements of stability and strength with margin. Stacking 2 containers simultaneously is the optimum operational effectiveness that tops selectivity demands.
Kalmar has researched, designed and engineered many units of lift truck trucks so as to meet a huge variety of applications.
