Container loaders
This type of forklift is designed for use in ports and cargo terminals with high requirements for equipment productivity. In developing its machines, the company closely monitors similar equipment from other manufacturers, trying to surpass them. To this end, the developers are guided by the principle that technical solutions are not an end in themselves, but only a means to achieve high performance and reliability of the entire machine.
Kalmar container handler DCF-410-CSG
Features:
The offered 3 models allow handling standard 20-40 'containers. The used carriage has a built-in compensator for uneven loading of the container, which allows you to grab it even if the loader has not arrived exactly at an angle of 90 °.
Equipped with 4 hydraulic cylinders, the gripper can handle containers from 20 to 53 feet. These machines are designed for intensive use, installed fuel tanks provide 50 hours of continuous operation, reducing wasted downtime. The operator's working environment reduces fatigue during extended periods.

Reach stackers or container handlers have a high lifting capacity. They are designed to work with filled containers and are widely used in warehouses and logistics centers, in ports and at railway freight stations.
It is noteworthy that in the latter case, the loader, standing on a platform between two tracks, is able to work with transport from both sides.
Reachstackers are equipped with special attachments that increase efficiency and expand the capabilities of special equipment. Among such attachments - different types spreaders (devices for gripping containers with special latches) and powerful magnets for loading steel slabs. Due to more powerful characteristics in comparison with other types of forklifts, reachstackers have a higher cost.
In the range of container handlers, there are also low-power models with a carrying capacity of up to 10 tons, however, the most in demand are heavy machines capable of lifting up to 30-40 tons and more, because they can replace many types of lifting equipment and surpass most of them in functionality. Among the most demanded and frequently encountered manufacturers and models of reachstackers, one should note companies that are unique in their kind.
In 1997, production completely switched from the production of electromechanical equipment to reachstackers with a more powerful and advanced hydraulic system... The brand is characterized by its own production critical nodes produced special equipment (bridges, cabins, booms, hydraulic cylinders, frames and partially electronic control systems).
The company produces 13 types of container handlers in various weight categories (from 10 to 40 tons). Characteristic feature - equipping machines with a large number of attachments, which is more typical for large machines (42 and 45 tons). If reachstackers for empty containers mostly have only one spreader with a large swing angle, and the intermodal machines (RS) series are equipped with two types of spreaders - for semi-trailers and for containers, then the so-called multi-stackers MULTIStacker and COILStacker (machines capable of working with filled , and with empty containers) have full set: grab for long lengths, grab, vacuum pipe grab, magnet, reel hook, forks, piggy-back grab.
Linde
The company took the path of unification of the entire production line... The lineup includes 14 items and is conventionally divided into two groups - container handlers equipped with a spreader (C 4026 ... C 4531CH) and intermodal reachstackers with a universal grip.
SMV
A distinctive feature of the production of this Swedish company - complete absence claims for cracks in chassis frames, which are traditionally weak point container loaders. The frame of this brand is made using a unique technology - from a box-shaped welded profile with reinforcement of the lower and upper surfaces. In addition, SMV is the first warehouse equipment company to use axial piston pumps.
The development of the Kalmar concern, whose products are widely represented on the domestic market, is interesting. More recently, the Finnish production sites Valmet and Sisu have become part of it. This merger was the start for the production of a rich assortment of high quality loading equipment. For example, the Sisu container handler served as the basis for the ContMaster series of standardized reach stackers. After the improvement, the machines received wider opportunities. Today the Kalmar DRS4527-S5 and DRS4531-S5 container handlers in this series are in great demand as low-maintenance units with a lifting capacity of up to 45 tons.
When choosing container handlers, you should pay attention to the specifics of its work. Reach stackers are available for both empty and full containers and universal models... Thus, the Linde C90 / 5 container loader with a diesel engine has a lifting capacity of 9 tons and is designed specifically for handling empty containers at cargo terminals and ports. The lifting height of Linde C90 / 5 containers is 12.67 meters, while container handlers of this type are capable of stacking empty containers in 5-7 rows. Loader in basic configuration is equipped with the only type of attachment - a special gripper for containers and has a relatively low cost - about 2 million rubles.
