For many 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 various empty container handling machines. There are different models to be able to meet lifting height requirements and, customer's performance. Their range stretches from a capacity of 3 high up to 8+1 high, offering optimum balance of economy.
The containers need to be stacked and moved quickly, efficiently and safely, in order for money to be earned and the task to be completed. Aside from driving fast and safe, the stacking needs to be done independent of lifting height. In general, it is a time-consuming job which requires precise placement.
These machinery are often placed in harsh working conditions with heavy loads and demands being placed on the stability of the spreader and the mast, along with strain on the abilities during the handling process. Having an unobstructed field of vision also helps to guarantee extra safety for the operator and those working in the vicinity.
Single Stacking
For single stacking equipment, the main characteristics comprise their high lifting speeds, extreme flexibility and overall stability. The single handling concept begins 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 important factors to take into consideration 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 another vital step in increasing the production in the empty container handling operations. For an empty container handler, the double stacking situation may present an extremely demanding application. Kalmar offers the new DCE100 model that was specially made to perform 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.
Kalmar has researched, engineered and designed numerous units of lift truck trucks to be able to meet a huge variety of applications.
