For numerous years, Kalmar has been developing specially made machines designed to handle empty containers. Kalmar's empty container handlers could be found in operation all over the globe. Kalmar offers various empty container handling machinery. There are different models in order to meet lifting height requirements and, client'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 made and a job to be done successfully, the containers need to be moved and stacked quickly, safely and efficiently. Aside from driving fast and safe, the stacking has to be done independent of lifting height. In general, it is a time-consuming job which needs precise placement.
The machines 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 throughout the handling process. Having an unobstructed field of vision also helps to ensure extra safety for the operator and those working nearby.
Single Stacking
For single stacking machinery, the main characteristics comprise 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 that are a common item on numerous Kalmar machines all around the globe. Some 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
An essential step in increasing the productivity 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 model that was specifically designed to perform the high stability requirements of strength and stability 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, designed and engineered numerous models of lift truck trucks.
