A container handler is a specialized piece of equipment used in the material handling industry for managing and transporting large intermodal containers, typically seen in ports, shipping yards, and warehouses. These machines are designed to lift, move, and stack containers efficiently and safely, optimizing the flow of goods in logistics operations. Container handlers often come in two main types: reach stackers, which offer flexibility and versatility in stacking containers up to several rows high, and heavy-duty forklifts, which are used for lower stacking and shorter transportation tasks. With robust lifting capacities and precise control systems, container handlers are essential for operations that require the frequent movement of containers, facilitating efficient loading, unloading, and organization in large-scale shipping and distribution environments.
