卡尔玛新闻摘要，2018年11月2日
卡尔玛将交付两台轮胎式龙门吊（RTG）至欧洲领先的独立航运集装箱码头运营商EUROGATE，支持其在摩洛哥丹吉尔S.A码头的运营。此项订单已录入卡哥特科2018年第三季度订单，计划于2019年第三季度完成交付。
卡尔玛经典RTG结合了先进的柴油和电动技术，低油耗、少排放且易于维护。1000个小时的维修间隔是业内最长的维修间隔之一，其模块化的设计有利于客户按照自己的具体要求进行自定义。
卡尔玛交付至EUROGATE丹吉尔码头的龙门吊宽7+1，堆5过1，起重能力达50吨。两台RTG将配备卡尔玛SmartRail自动大车转向系统，此项系统具有集装箱定位功能（CPI），能自动控制大车转向并将集装箱位置反馈至码头运营系统。两台设备均将装有卡尔玛流程自动化中的SmartFleet系统，可远程监控设备并及时报告，从而提高码头运营的透明度，减少设备停机时间。
EUROGATE丹吉尔S.A码头CEO Andrea Cervia表示：“多年来，卡尔玛RTG一直是我们码头运营的有力保障，因此当要扩大现有车队时，我们再次选择了卡尔玛。我们信赖卡尔玛的技术创新型解决方案，并坚信和卡尔玛的再度合作将持续提高我们码头的生产力和稳定性。”
Kalmar, part of Cargotec, is to deliver two rubber-tyred gantry cranes (RTGs) to EUROGATE, Europe's leading shipping line-independent container terminal operator, for use in their Tanger S.A. terminal in Morocco. The order was booked in Cargotec's 2018 Q3 order intake, with delivery scheduled to take place during Q3 of 2019.
The EUROGATE Tanger container terminal is conveniently located on the Strait of Gibraltar in Morocco, making it the ideal transhipment hub for the western Mediterranean, Africa and South America. With a quay length of 812 m, a terminal area of 400,000 m² and a water depth of up to 18 m, the facility is well-equipped to handle the new generation of container ships. All RTGs currently operating at the terminal have been supplied by Kalmar.
The Kalmar Classic RTG combines the best of diesel and electric technology to enable fuel savings, low emissions and easy maintenance. At 1,000 hours, it has one of the longest maintenance intervals in the industry, while its modular design makes it easy to tailor according to customer-specific requirements.
The cranes delivered to EUROGATE Tanger will be 7+1 rows wide and 1-over-5 high, with a lifting capacity of 50 tons under the spreader. They will be fitted with the Kalmar SmartRail automated gantry steering solution with Container Position Indication (CPI), which automatically controls the gantry steering and feeds container coordinates to the Terminal Operating System. They will also feature Kalmar SmartFleet - a process automation solution that improves operational transparency and reduces downtime through remote equipment monitoring and reporting.
Andrea Cervia, CEO, EUROGATE Tanger S.A.: "Kalmar RTGs have been the backbone of our operations for many years already, so it was a natural step to turn to Kalmar once again when it came to expanding our existing fleet. We appreciate Kalmar for their innovative technical solutions and we are sure to continue together to increase the terminal performance and reliability."
Ilkka Annala, Vice President, Intelligent Crane Solutions, Kalmar: "We have enjoyed a very successful long-term relationship with EUROGATE Tanger, and we are very pleased that they have once again chosen our safe, reliable and fuel-efficient RTG solutions to support operations at the terminal."
