Kalmar supplies ASCs to Delta
Rotterdam’ s European Container Terminal (ECT) is continuing the expansion of its Delta container terminal with fully automated stacking equipment developed together with Kalmar.
GreenSeas has already been successful in its home waters in Trinidad and Tobago where the “Litter kills Marine Life” campaign saw the placement of rubbish bins along Tobago’s heavily polluted public beaches.
An agreement was signed in December for the turnkey supply of six automated stacking cranes (ASCs), with an option to increase the order volume to a total of 18 cranes.
The fully automated cranes will be identical to those currently in operation at ECT, which are 1 over 4 high and 6 containers wide. If the option is exercised, the total number of Kalmar ASCs at ECT Delta Terminal will be 121 cranes. ECT is a member of the Hutchison Port Holdings Group.
