Kalmar has been designing machine that is particularly adapted to the handling of empty containers for numerous years. Their empty container handlers are now functioning and operating all around the globe. Kalmar offers a huge variety of empty container handling machinery. There are different units in order to meet customer's performance, and lifting height requirements. Their range stretches from a capacity of 3 high up to 8+1 high, offering optimum balance of economy.
The containers need to be moved and stacked fast, safely and efficiently, in order for money to be earned and the task to be done. Aside from driving fast and safe, the stacking should be done independent of lifting height. In general, it is a time-consuming job which needs precise positioning.
The machines 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 in the handling process. Having an unobstructed field of vision also helps to ensure extra safety for the operator and those working nearby.
Single Stacking
The main characteristics for single stacking machines are their high lifting speeds, extreme flexibility and overall stability. The single handling concept begins at 3 high and stacking up to 8 high. These machines feature twistlock attachments which are a common item on numerous Kalmar equipment throughout the world. Several of the important factors to consider when thinking about single stacking equipment are the limitations in ground space and the high demands on selectivity.
Double Stacking
An essential step in increasing the production 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 provides the new DCE100 model that was specially made to fulfill the high stability requirements of stability and strength with margin. Stacking 2 containers at the same time is the optimum operational efficiency which tops selectivity demands.
In order to meet a huge variety of applications, Kalmar has researched, designed and engineered many units of lift truck trucks.
