Kalmar has been developing machinery which is particularly utilized in the handling of empty containers for many years. Their empty container handlers are now operating and functioning all around the world. Kalmar offers various empty container handling equipment. There are different models 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.
In order for money to be made and a task to be completed successfully, the containers need to be stacked and moved quickly, efficiently and safely. Aside from driving fast and safe, the stacking should be done independent of lifting height. Overall, it is a time-consuming job that requires precise positioning.
The machines are under such a stringent working environment that this places heavy demands on the stability of the equipment, mast and spreader, along with extreme user friendly abilities during the handling process. Having an unobstructed field of vision also helps to guarantee extra safety for the operator and individuals working nearby.
Single Stacking
For single stacking machinery, the main characteristics comprise their high lifting speeds, overall stability and extreme flexibility. The single handling concept begins at 3 high and stacking up to 8 high. These machinery feature twistlock attachments that are a common item on many Kalmar equipment all over the globe. Several of the key factors to consider when choosing 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 an extremely demanding application for the Empty Container Handler. Kalmar offers the new DCE100 unit which was particularly designed to fulfill the high stability requirements of stability and strength with margin. Stacking 2 containers at the same time is the optimum operational efficiency which tops selectivity demands.
To be able to meet a huge variety of applications, Kalmar has researched, engineered and designed numerous models of lift truck trucks.
