For numerous years, Kalmar has been developing particularly made machines engineered to handle empty containers. Kalmar's empty container handlers can be found in operation all around the world. Kalmar provides a huge variety of empty container handling machinery. There are a variety of models to be able to meet client's performance, and lifting height requirements. Their range stretches from a capacity of 3 high up to 8+1 high, providing optimum balance of economy.
The containers have to be moved and stacked quickly, efficiently and safely, in order for money to be made and the job to be done. Other than driving fast and safe, the stacking should be completed independent of lifting height. In general, it is a time-consuming task which needs precise placement.
The machinery are under such a stringent working environment that this places heavy demands on the stability of the equipment, spreader and mast, 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 individuals working nearby.
Single Stacking
For single stacking equipment, the main characteristics include their high lifting speeds, extreme flexibility and overall stability. The single handling concept begins at 3 high and stacking up to 8 high. These equipment feature twistlock attachments which are a common item on numerous Kalmar equipment throughout the world. Several of the important factors to take into account when thinking about single stacking machinery are the high demands on selectivity and the limitations in ground space.
Double Stacking
An important step in increasing the production 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 provides the new DCE100 model that was particularly designed to fulfill the high stability requirements of stability and strength with margin. Stacking 2 containers simultaneously is the optimum operational efficiency which tops selectivity demands.
In order to meet a huge variety of applications, Kalmar has researched, engineered and designed many units of lift truck trucks.
