Kalmar has been designing machine which is specially utilized in the handling of empty containers for many years. Their empty container handlers are now functioning and operating all around the world. Kalmar provides various empty container handling machinery. There are different units 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, offering optimum balance of economy.
The containers need to be moved and stacked quickly, safely and efficiently, in order for money to be earned and the job to be completed. Other than driving fast and safe, the stacking should be done independent of lifting height. In general, it is a time-consuming task which needs precise placement.
These equipment are often placed in tough working conditions with heavy demands and loads being placed on the stability of the spreader and the mast, in addition to strain on the abilities during the handling process. Having a clear field of vision also helps to guarantee extra safety for the operator and people working nearby.
Single Stacking
For single stacking machines, the main characteristics comprise 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 that are a common item on many Kalmar equipment all over the globe. Some of the key factors to consider when thinking about single stacking equipment are the high demands on selectivity and the limitations in ground space.
Double Stacking
Double stacking the containers is one more vital step in increasing the productivity in the empty container handling operations. For an empty container handler, the double stacking situation can present an extremely demanding application. Kalmar provides the new DCE100 model that was particularly made to perform the high stability requirements of stability and strength with margin. Stacking 2 containers at the same time is the optimum operational effectiveness that tops selectivity demands.
To be able to meet a huge variety of applications, Kalmar has researched, engineered and designed many models of forklift trucks.
