For numerous years, Kalmar has been developing particularly made machinery designed to handle empty containers. Kalmar's empty container handlers can be found in operation all over the globe. Kalmar provides various empty container handling machinery. There are different models to be able 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 job to be done successfully, the containers has to be moved and stacked quickly, efficiently and safely. Other than driving fast and safe, the stacking must be completed independent of lifting height. In general, it is a time-consuming job which requires precise placement.
These machinery are usually placed in tough working conditions with heavy loads and demands being placed on the stability of the mast and the spreader, in addition to strain on the abilities in the handling process. Having a clear field of vision also helps to guarantee extra safety for the operator and those working in the vicinity.
Single Stacking
For single stacking machines, the main characteristics consist of 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 numerous Kalmar machinery throughout the world. Some of the key factors to take into account when choosing single stacking machines are the limitations in ground space and the high demands on selectivity.
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 could present a really demanding application. Kalmar provides the new DCE100 unit that was specifically made to fulfill the high stability requirements of stability and strength with margin. Stacking 2 containers simultaneously is the optimum operational effectiveness that tops selectivity demands.
Kalmar has researched, designed and engineered numerous units of forklift trucks so as to meet a huge variety of applications.
