For many years, Kalmar has been developing specially made equipments designed to handle empty containers. Kalmar's empty container handlers can be found in operation all around the globe. Kalmar offers a wide variety of empty container handling machines. There are various units 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, providing optimum balance of economy.
In order for money to be earned and a task to be completed successfully, the containers has to be stacked and moved quickly, safely and efficiently. Other than driving safe and fast, the stacking should be done independent of lifting height. Overall, it is a time-consuming job that needs accurate placement.
These equipment are usually placed in harsh working environment with heavy loads and demands being placed on the stability of the spreader and the mast, as well as strain on the abilities in the handling process. Having a clear field of vision also helps to ensure extra safety for the operator and those working in the vicinity.
Single Stacking
The main characteristics for single stacking machinery are their high lifting speeds, overall stability and extreme flexibility. The single handling concept starts at 3 high and stacking up to 8 high. These equipment feature twistlock attachments which are a common item on numerous Kalmar machinery all around the world. Several of the key factors to consider when choosing single stacking machinery are the limitations in ground space and the high demands on selectivity.
Double Stacking
Double stacking the containers is one more important step in increasing the production in the empty container handling operations. For an empty container handler, the double stacking situation may present an extremely demanding application. Kalmar provides the new DCE100 model that was particularly made to perform the high stability requirements of strength and stability with margin. Stacking 2 containers simultaneously is the optimum operational effectiveness that tops selectivity demands.
In order to meet a huge variety of applications, Kalmar has researched, engineered and designed numerous models of forklift trucks.
