SUBSIDIARY of Cargotec, Kalmar, has received an order from the Port of Vienna's WienCont Container Terminal for three new twin lift capability empty container handlers with delivery and start-up set for April 2017.
The contract marks the first order of equipment from Kalmar's DCG80-100 empty container handler range, which was launched in Munich on November 9.
A company statement said the new range offers customers the best lifetime value currently available on the market with better performance, greater reliability, less downtime and lower running costs for the machine.
WienCont Container Terminal, a subsidiary of the Port of Vienna, is a trimodal terminal serving rail, road and inland waterways. WienCont's annual capacity of approximately 480,000 TEU makes it the largest combined transport terminal on the Danube and its capacity is expected to grow by 3-5 per cent per year over the next five years.
The 10-tonne capacity handlers are fitted with options including reverse warning system, tyre pressure monitoring system and the Kalmar Smart Fleet monitoring system that enables a more effective management of the container handling operations.
"In order to prepare for the future, it is important that we choose high quality equipment with modern capabilities that will meet our growing handling requirements. We have chosen Kalmar as the brand to trust for their reliable machines, low downtime, and cost-effective service for our intermodal operations," says Robert Groiss, managing director of WienCont Container.
