卡尔玛新闻摘要，2020年3月27日

卡尔玛与土耳其TCEEGE集装箱码头运营公司（后称TCEEGE）签订协议，为其提供2台卡尔玛油电混合轮胎式龙门起重机（RTG）。此项订单已录入卡哥特科2020年第一季度订单，计划于2020年第四季度完成交付。

卡尔玛新款RTG实现了柴油和电力技术最佳结合，节约燃油成本、降低燃料排放且易于维护。新款RTG提供业内最长的1000小时的保养周期。模块化设计便于根据客户要求定制。

卡尔玛EMEIA销售副总裁Mikko Mononen表示：“很荣幸卡尔玛能够与TCEEGE展开合作，我们拥有丰富的经验、可靠的RTG技术，能够助力TCEEGE扩展其车队。我们已建立了卓越的合作伙伴关系，并期待未来能在本次订单基础上深入合作。”  

Kalmar, part of Cargotec, has concluded an agreement with TCEEGE Konteyner Terminal İşletmeleri A.Ş. (TCEEGE) in Turkey to supply two Kalmar diesel-electric rubber-tyred gantry (RTG) cranes. The order was booked in Cargotec's 2020 Q1 order intake with delivery and handover scheduled to be completed in Q4 of 2020.

TCEEGE is located 55 km from the city of Izmir on the west coast of Turkey. The terminal has an annual capacity of 500,000 TEU and has recently been purchased by the Turkish company Ege Gubre from the Spanish company Grup Maritim TCB.

The new Kalmar RTG combines the best of diesel and electric technology for fuel savings, low emissions and easy maintenance. At 1,000 hours, it has one of the longest maintenance intervals in the industry. Its modular design makes it easy to tailor to customer-specific requirements.

The two RTGs delivered to TCEEGE will each be equipped with a Variable Speed Generator (VSG), which enables even greater fuel economy and lower emissions by automatically optimising RPM according to the required power. 

Mehmet Aydiner, Port Technical Manager, TCEEGE: “The Kalmar RTG platform offers everything we are looking for in terms of technology and specification options. Furthermore, we are keen to bring new equipment online as quickly as possible, so the short delivery lead time was also an important factor in our decision. We look forward to further developing our partnership with Kalmar in the years to come.”

Mikko Mononen, Vice President, Sales, EMEIA, Kalmar: “It is a pleasure to bring TCEEGE on board as a Kalmar customer and help them to expand their fleet with our proven, reliable RTG technology. We have already established an excellent working partnership and look forward to building on this first order in the future.”
