卡尔玛新闻摘要，2018年8月15日
卡尔玛与格但斯克港深水集装箱码头（DCT）公司签订合同，为其定制3台电动铁路轨道式龙门吊（RMG）。DCT公司在2018年第一季度订购卡尔玛5台轮胎式龙门吊（RTG）之后再一次选择了卡尔玛，该订单已录入卡哥特科2018年第三季度，并计划于2019年下半年完成交付。
格但斯克DCT公司是波兰最大、增长最快速的集装箱码头，也是波罗的海地区唯一一个有远洋直航船只的深水码头。该码头集装箱年吞吐量为300万标箱，面积达74公顷。
DCT执行总裁Cameron Thorpe表示：“卡尔玛可迅速应对市场需求，并提供满足我们严格要求的设备。这三台卡尔玛新型电动RMG将显著提升我们的集装箱处理能力，帮助我们为中欧及东欧的客户提供高效可靠的铁路门户。”
三台起升能力达41吨，轨道宽度达32米的卡尔玛RMG，将用于深水港码头的铁路运输，支持该码头在格丁尼亚港的一项正在进行中的轨道设施现代化投资项目。三台RMG由电缆卷轴系统供电，可为集卡和集装箱提供一个悬臂和两个轨道的空间。三台起重机搭配卡尔玛SmartFleet流程自动化解决方案的RMG地图模式，以及一套经认证的用于集装箱称重的卡尔玛SmartWeight系统，此系统将集成于该码头2011年安装的Navis N4码头运营系统（TOS）。
Kalmar, part of Cargotec, has signed an agreement with Deepwater Container Terminal (DCT) Gdansk to supply three electrically powered rail-mounted gantry cranes (RMGs) with DCT specific customisation. The order, booked in Cargotec's 2018 third quarter order intake, follows a recent DCT order of five Rubber-Tyred Gantry Cranes (RTGs) that took place in the first quarter of 2018. The RMG deliveries are scheduled to take place in the second half of 2019.
DCT Gdansk is Poland's largest and fastest growing container facility, and the only deep-water terminal in the Baltic Sea region with direct ocean vessel calls from the Far East. Currently the terminal has an annual throughput capacity of 3 million TEUs and its operating area covers 74 hectares. The container-handling equipment at DCT Gdansk includes Post-Panamax and Super-Post-Panamax ship-to-shore cranes as well as RTGs. DCT Gdansk has made significant infrastructure investments during the past three years, affecting all modes of transport crossing the Port of Gdansk, which is the country's largest logistics hub.
Cameron Thorpe, CEO at DCT Gdansk: "Rail connections in Poland, as in other European countries are becoming increasingly important, especially in the context of sustainable, intermodal transport solutions. We found that Kalmar have responded well to market demands and can provide equipment that meets our exacting requirements. The three new electrically powered Kalmar RMGs will significantly boost our handling capacity and help us deliver an efficient, dependable rail gateway for our customers in Central and Eastern Europe."
The three Kalmar RMGs, each with a lifting capacity of 41 tons and railspan of 32 metres, will be used to service trains in the new rail section of the container terminal. They are part of an ongoing investment programme at the Port of Gdynia to modernise the rail infrastructure at the port. The units will be powered by a cable-reel system, have one cantilever and room for two lanes for trucks and containers. The cranes will be fitted with Kalmar SmartFleet process automation solution with a RMG map view as well as Kalmar SmartWeight for certified container weighing that will be integrated in the Navis N4 Terminal Operating System (TOS), that has been implemented in the terminal already in 2011.
Ilkka Annala, Vice President, Intelligent Crane Solutions, Kalmar: "We are glad to continue our partnership with DCT with this new order of RMGs. We listened carefully what the customer needed and offered them a customised solution that helps DCT accomplish their productivity targets in their intermodal operations."
