CARGOTEC CORPORATION, PRESS RELEASE, 26 SEPTEMBER 2016 AT 11 AM (EEST)
Kalmar, part of Cargotec, is pleased to announce the phase 2 of the DP World
Brisbane Automatic Stacking Cranes (ASC) project has kicked off with a
successful target delivery.
The shipment carrying two new 9-wide ASCs arrived at DPW in project schedule and
in perfect condition. The two ASCs were transported fully-erected from China to
Australia and unloaded in Brisbane in July. This delivery completes Module 1
which is an addition to existing seven ASC modules.
"The arrival of the vessel carrying two fully-erected ASCs was really
impressive. DP World and Kalmar staff alike were excited to watch as the vessel
pulled into the port. Kalmar would like to congratulate and thank everyone
involved," comments Jyri Saarijoki, Project Director, Kalmar. He continues "The
successful shipment of fully-erected cranes from China to Australia with
efficient delivery onto the terminal is an important milestone for Kalmar and
validates the method as an efficient and proven concept."
The delivery of the two Kalmar ASCs marks the fourth successful fully erected
ASC shipment from China to Australia. To date, Kalmar has provided DP World in
Brisbane 16 Kalmar ASCs and 16 Kalmar shuttle carriers integrated with Navis N4
terminal operating system (TOS). The two new ASCs bring the number of modules
servicing container trade to eight and increasing capacity by 14 percent to
720,000 TEU.
