Kalmar receives first order for new empty container handlers

Equipment manufacturer Kalmar has received the first order for its recently launched range of empty container handlers from the Port of Vienna’s WienCont Container Terminal.

The order for three new twin lift capability units of Kalmar’s DCG80-100 empty container handler range, which was launched in November this year, is expected to be delivered in April 2017.

The port’s subsidiary WienCont Container Terminal, which is a trimodal terminal serving rail, road and inland waterways, already operates one DCF100-45E6 empty container handler, four reachstackers, two empty container reachstackers, one container handler and one terminal tractor manufactured by Kalmar.
