For many years, Kalmar has been developing particularly made machines engineered to handle empty containers. Kalmar's empty container handlers could be found in operation all around the world. Kalmar offers a wide range of empty container handling machinery. There are various models 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 earned and a job to be completed successfully, the containers has to be moved and stacked fast, efficiently and safely. Other than driving safe and fast, the stacking must be done independent of lifting height. Overall, it is a time-consuming task that needs accurate positioning.
These machinery are normally placed in tough working conditions with heavy demands and loads being placed on the stability of the spreader and the mast, along with strain on the 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 machines, the main characteristics consist of their high lifting speeds, overall stability and extreme flexibility. 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 many Kalmar machinery throughout the globe. Several of the key factors to take into account when choosing single stacking equipment 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 unit 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.
Kalmar has researched, designed and engineered many units of forklift trucks so as to meet a huge variety of applications.
