卡尔玛新闻摘要，2016年3月15日

卡尔玛将交付第一批共四座E-One2龙门吊至埃及杜姆亚特集装箱及货物装卸公司（Damietta Container & Cargo Handling Company，简称DCHC）。此项订单已录入卡哥特科2015年第四季度订单，设备计划于2016年交付。

DCHC选择了柴油电动的卡尔玛E-One2龙门吊来助力其实现运营发展计划，提升装卸效率并降低运营成本。此款RTG可堆叠7+1宽，5+1高，最大起重能力达41吨。此项合同还包括零配件、运营商技术培训和起重机巡检服务。

Kalmar, part of Cargotec, will deliver four Kalmar E-One2 rubber-tyred gantry cranes (RTGs) to Damietta Container & Cargo Handling Company (DCHC) in Damietta, Egypt. The order has been booked into Cargotec's 2015 fourth quarter order intake with a delivery and start-up date in 2016.

The Kalmar RTGs are set to boost container handling capacity as transshipment is increasing in the Suez Canal area. DCHC is one of the largest container terminals in Egypt's Mediterranean side, with ongoing capacity expansion planned to cater to the increasing operational requirements of customers. 

Mika Virtanen, Vice President for RTG and STS cranes at Kalmar said: "We are delighted to have gained this valuable order from a new RTG market for us. As terminal operators gear up for higher container throughput, our RTGs can deliver improved efficiency and cost reduction at various terminals around the globe."

DCHC selected diesel-electric Kalmar E-One2 RTGs to facilitate the expansion of their operations as they considerably improve handling efficiency and lower operating costs. The cranes have the capability of handling 7+1 wide with 1 over 5 high stacking and a maximum lift capacity of 41 tonnes. The contract includes spare parts, training for operators and technicians as well as inspection services for the cranes.
