Kalmar has been developing machine which is specifically utilized in the handling of empty containers for numerous years. Their empty container handlers are nowadays functioning and operating all over the world. Kalmar provides a wide range of empty container handling equipment. There are various 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, providing optimum balance of economy.
The containers have to be stacked and moved quickly, safely and efficiently, in order for money to be made and the job to be completed. Other than driving fast and safe, the stacking must be done independent of lifting height. Overall, it is a time-consuming job which requires accurate positioning.
These equipment are often placed in harsh working conditions with heavy demands and loads being placed on the stability of the mast and the spreader, as well as strain on the abilities during the handling process. Having an unobstructed field of vision also helps to guarantee extra safety for the operator and individuals working in the vicinity.
Single Stacking
The main characteristics for single stacking equipment are their high lifting speeds, overall stability and extreme flexibility. The single handling concept starts at 3 high and stacking up to 8 high. These machinery feature twistlock attachments that are a common item on numerous Kalmar machinery all over the world. Several of the key factors to consider when choosing single stacking machines 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 production in the empty container handling operations. For an empty container handler, the double stacking situation could present an extremely demanding application. Kalmar offers the new DCE100 unit which was specifically made to perform the high stability requirements of stability and strength with margin. Stacking 2 containers at the same time is the optimum operational effectiveness that tops selectivity demands.
In order to meet a huge variety of applications, Kalmar has researched, designed and engineered many models of forklift trucks.
