For many years, Kalmar has been developing particularly made machinery engineered to handle empty containers. Kalmar's empty container handlers could be found in operation all around the globe. Kalmar provides a wide range of empty container handling machines. There are a variety of units in order 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 earned and a job to be done successfully, the containers has to be moved and stacked quickly, safely and efficiently. Other than driving safe and fast, the stacking needs to be completed independent of lifting height. In general, it is a time-consuming task that requires precise placement.
These machines are often placed in harsh working conditions with heavy demands and loads being placed on the stability of the mast and the spreader, along with strain on the abilities during the handling process. Having a clear field of vision also helps to guarantee extra safety for the operator and people working nearby.
Single Stacking
The main characteristics for single stacking machines are 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 that are a common item on many Kalmar machinery all over the globe. Several of the important factors to consider when choosing single stacking machines are the limitations in ground space and the high demands on selectivity.
Double Stacking
An essential step in increasing the production 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 offers the new DCE100 unit that was particularly made to fulfill the high stability requirements of strength and stability with margin. Stacking 2 containers at the same time is the optimum operational efficiency which tops selectivity demands.
Kalmar has researched, designed and engineered many models of lift truck trucks to be able to meet a huge variety of applications.
