Kalmar, part of Cargotec, has gained an order from DP World for seven empty container handlers to Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
The new empty container handlers will be delivered by April 2014 for DP World’s new Container Terminal 3, under construction in Jebel Ali. With its 1860m of quayside and 70-hectare yard, the 4 million TEU (twenty-foot equivalent unit) capacity Terminal 3, due to open in 2014, will take the total capacity of Jebel Ali Port to 19 million TEU.
The new machines are equipped with several options to enhance operator safety, such as twistlock monitoring camera, rear warning system and vehicle data output, among others.
