卡尔玛新闻摘要，2015年12月3日
卡尔玛将为电动穿梭机和跨运车提供业内首个快速充电方案。卡尔玛FastCharge(TM)快速充电方案能实行零排放，可兼容应用于自动化运营和人工化运营设备。
卡尔玛FastCharge快速充电方案采用了电动公交车上的充电科技。充电站和集电器充电系统灵活地分布在码头内设备的工作路线上。设备配有现代化锂电池，能快速充电使用。充电环节发生在设备循环工作时等待集装箱的空闲时间内。充电时间一般为30-180秒，最大充电功率为600千瓦，设备充满电只需几分钟即可完成。
Kalmar, part of Cargotec, announced today that it will introduce the industry first fast charging solution for electric powered shuttle and straddle carriers. The Kalmar FastCharge(TM) solution is locally emission free and can be applied to both automated and manual operation.
The Kalmar FastCharge solution is based on the same opportunity charging technology that is used in electric buses. The charging station with a pantograph direct current charging system is located flexibly on the working route of the machines in the terminal. The machine has modern Lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries which enable fast charging to be used. Charging happens during the idle time in the machine working cycle when it has stopped to wait for the container. Typical charging time in operation is 30 to 180 seconds, and with the maximum charging power of 600 kW, full charge can be achieved in a few minutes.
"Customers have been asking for electric powered shuttle operation for a while already", says Dr. Tero Kokko, Vice President, Horizontal Transportation at Kalmar. "This technology makes the charging process smooth, as there is no need to take the machine out of operation for battery swapping. Neither is there a need to invest in battery swapping stations and extra batteries." He continues: "Our hybrid technology has been extremely well received by the market. We have long experience in Lithium-Ion technology in hybrid machines, and this development is a natural next step in reducing emissions. This latest complement to our portfolio will provide excellent value to terminals which are facing even tighter environmental requirements."
The Kalmar FastCharge solution consists of electric powered shuttle or straddle carriers and fast charging stations. Kalmar continues to test and verify the solution at the Tampere Technology and Competence Centre in Finland, with plans to bring the solution to the market during 2016.
