For numerous years, Kalmar has been developing specially made equipments designed to handle empty containers. Kalmar's empty container handlers could be found in operation all around the world. Kalmar provides various empty container handling machines. There are different 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.
In order for money to be made and a job to be completed successfully, the containers has to be moved and stacked quickly, safely and efficiently. Other than driving fast and safe, the stacking should be completed independent of lifting height. Overall, it is a time-consuming job which needs precise placement.
These machines are usually placed in tough working environment with heavy demands and loads being placed on the stability of the mast and the spreader, in combination with strain on the abilities throughout the handling process. Having an unobstructed field of vision also helps to guarantee extra safety for the operator and people working nearby.
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 machines feature twistlock attachments that are a common item on many Kalmar machinery all over the world. Some 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 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 offers 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 that tops selectivity demands.
Kalmar has researched, designed and engineered many units of forklift trucks so as to meet a huge variety of applications.
