Kalmar, part of Cargotec, is to deliver a further order of next-generation electric (NGE) straddle carriers to Maher Terminals LLC for use at their marine container terminal in New Jersey, USA.

When this new order has been completed, the number of Kalmar straddle carriers delivered to Maher Terminals will exceed 400 straddle carriers since 1980, which is a truly historic and significant milestone for both Maher and Kalmar.
The next-generation machines delivered to Maher Terminals will have a 50-ton twin-lift capacity and feature a variety of customer-specific options that have been jointly developed as part of Kalmar’s long cooperation with Maher. They will have a stacking height of 4-high and feature Kalmar’s unique and highly robust mobile drives, which have proven to our customers globally a significant increase in reliability and uptime.
