For many years, Kalmar has been developing specially made equipments engineered to handle empty containers. Kalmar's empty container handlers could be found in operation all around the globe. Kalmar offers various empty container handling equipment. There are different units in order 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.
In order for money to be earned and a task to be completed successfully, the containers need to be moved and stacked quickly, efficiently and safely. Aside from driving safe and fast, the stacking needs to be completed independent of lifting height. In general, it is a time-consuming task that needs accurate placement.
The equipment are under such a stringent working environment that this places heavy demands on the stability of the machine, mast and spreader, along with extreme user friendly 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 machinery are their high lifting speeds, extreme flexibility and overall stability. The single handling concept starts at 3 high and stacking up to 8 high. These machines feature twistlock attachments which are a common item on numerous Kalmar machines throughout the world. Some of the key factors to consider 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 can be a very demanding application for the Empty Container Handler. Kalmar offers the new DCE100 unit which was particularly designed 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.
To be able to meet a huge variety of applications, Kalmar has researched, engineered and designed numerous units of lift truck trucks.
