卡尔玛新闻摘要，2021年3月26日

卡尔玛与台湾港务股份有限公司（TIPC）签署协议，为基隆港提供2台柴油电动跨运车。此项订单已录入卡哥特科2021年第一季度订单，计划于2021年第四季度完成交付。

TIPC是中国台湾地区运输交通部全资拥有的企业，负责管理以下4个港口的业务：基隆港、台中港、高雄港和花莲港。基隆港位于中国台湾地区北部附近，是亚太区最重要的港口之一。

卡尔玛亚太区解决方案部销售副总裁Daniel Ho表示：“我们很荣幸成为基隆港值得信赖的设备供应商，继续支持TIPC。我们的跨运车为客户提供了一贯的卓越性能和安全优势，噪音更低、排放量更少且更加节能。新一代跨运车在许多不同领域都有着巨大飞跃，其中可靠性和生产率的提高最为显著，为使用跨运车装卸集装箱的码头带来了各种优势。”

Kalmar, part of Cargotec, has concluded an agreement with Taiwan International Ports Corporation, Ltd. (TIPC) to deliver two diesel-electric straddle carriers for use at the Port of Keelung. The order was booked in Cargotec’s 2021 Q1 order intake with delivery scheduled for Q4 2021.

TIPC is wholly owned by Taiwan’s Ministry of Transportation and Communications. TIPC manages operations at four ports in Taiwan: Port of Keelung, Port of Taichung, Port of Kaohsiung and Port of Hualien. The Port of Keelung is located near the northern tip of Taiwan and is one of the most important ports in the Asia-Pacific region. 

TIPC’s equipment fleet currently includes seven Kalmar straddle carriers, which have been operating at Keelung for close to two decades. The new machines are being purchased as part of TIPC’s ongoing fleet renewal programme. 

The Kalmar straddle carriers delivered to TIPC will be powered by a highly efficient diesel-electric power unit and feature excellent manoeuvrability, quiet operation and easy maintenance. The spacious, ergonomic cabin and intuitive user interface will help to improve productivity by ensuring that operators benefit from the best possible driving experience. The next-generation machines feature new robust mobile drives, a completely redesigned electrical system for the upper frame and spreader and a more spacious electric cabinet layout.

Daniel Ho, Vice President, Solutions Sales, Asia-Pacific, Kalmar: “We are proud to be able to continue supporting TIPC as a trusted equipment supplier for the Port of Keelung. Our straddle carriers provide customers with proven performance and safety benefits that Kalmar equipment is known for, plus superior fuel efficiency with lower noise and emissions. Our next-generation straddle carriers represent a huge leap forward in many different ways, bringing a wide variety of benefits for terminals using straddle carriers for container handling, with increased reliability and productivity being the most significant.”
