For numerous years, Kalmar has been developing particularly 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 a variety of 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.
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 needs to be completed independent of lifting height. Overall, it is a time-consuming job which needs precise placement.
The machinery are under such a stringent working atmosphere that this places heavy demands on the stability of the machine, spreader and mast, 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 individuals working nearby.
Single Stacking
For single stacking equipment, the main characteristics comprise 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 many Kalmar machinery throughout the globe. Some of the key 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 important step in increasing the production in the empty container handling operations. For an empty container handler, the double stacking situation may present a really demanding application. Kalmar provides the new DCE100 unit which was particularly made to perform the high stability requirements of strength and stability with margin. Stacking 2 containers simultaneously is the optimum operational effectiveness which tops selectivity demands.
Kalmar has researched, designed and engineered many models of forklift trucks so as to meet a huge variety of applications.
