Kalmar electric empty container handler launch…

This unit is based on the company’s proven electrical platform that uses the same electric drive system as the Kalmar electric reachstacker and Kalmar heavy electric forklift truck.

The Kalmar electric empty container handler is available in a single-stacker configuration in 9 and 10 tonne capacities and lifting heights from five to eight units high. The double-stacker configuration is available in 10 and 11 tonne capacities, with stacking heights from 5+1 to 8+1 high.

Three different battery sizes are offered (163, 293 and 391 kWh) to support different load and operating-time requirements. The handler is designed to minimise energy losses and optimise energy accumulation, thereby ensuring longer intervals between charges, improving battery lifetime and performance to save on battery size and cost.

A built-in thermal monitoring system ensures that the batteries remain within the optimal temperature range at all times during operations.
