Gottwalds golden geese
Besides strong MHC sales, Gottwald is reporting important milestones in the automated port technologies segment with the first ASC Automated Stacking Crane order and successful launch of the E-AGV series, the diesel-electric version of the diesel-hydraulic AGV Automated Guided Vehicle.
Gottwald Port Technology concluded its business year 2004/2005 on 30 September with record figures.
Turnover exceeded the previous year’s figure by nearly 22% and achieved a new record of ?237.3m.
The new E-AGVs offer the same handling features as the standard diesel-hydraulic drive AGVs but use Gottwald’s dieselelectric concept, a design that has already been implemented in the MHCs and that offers a superior efficiency, reliability and overall cost savings. The first unmanned E-AGVs type CT 60-E will be supplied to HHLA’s Container-Terminal Altenwerder (CTA) in Hamburg.
