Konecranes introduces: the AVOLUTION OF INTERMODAL

Konecranes has the widest and deepest offering in container handling. It’s the widest in terms of the breadth of the product portfolio, ranging from heavy-duty lift trucks to manned container cranes to fully-automated yard crane systems. It’s the deepest in terms of the manned-to-automated growth path, remote monitoring capabilities and intelligent software control. We now bring this to intermodal terminal operators with the AVOLUTION OF INTERMODAL. 

When implemented wisely, automation provides more predictable and reliable productivity, greater efficiency and greater safety. Konecranes is now bringing the full power of automation to bear on intermodal container operations. We offer different concepts to fit different intermodal handling scenarios. On the rail side, they are built around the Automated BOXPORTER RMG system. On the horizontal transport side, we offer a range of options to complete the picture: A-STRADs and A-SPRINTERs, AGVs and Lift-AGVs, and Automated Terminal Tractors in partnership with Terberg.

The AVOLUTION OF INTERMODAL also includes new features from Konecranes Lift Trucks: Work Zone and Ecolifting (Power Drive, Flow Drive and Hybrid Drive) to increase to eco-efficiency of lift truck operations.

The picture is completed with the TEAMS Equipment Control System and Terminal Operating System (TOS) from TBA, intelligent software control at the leading edge of container handling automation.
