Kalmar is the world-leading brand for terminal tractor technology. In 1958, Ottawa Truck, which was later acquired by Kalmar, introduced the first terminal tractor manufactured in the USA.

Cargotec holds many patents and is the only terminal tractor manufacturer in the industry that pre-forms their chassis frame rails from steel plate. The frame rails on the Ottawa models are designed with pre-punched holes, which gives them the ability to bolt on all optional equipment in lieu of welding, which can introduce fatigue to the chassis.

Our terminal tractor was designed for ergonomics. The cab features power steering, automatic gear shifting, maximum visibility and a sharp turning radius, which provides our drivers with comfort while increasing productivity.  Kalmar terminal tractors can spot 3 trailers in the same time it takes an over-the-road tractor to spot 1 trailer.
        Ports and Terminals
Kalmar terminal tractors are adapted to a variety of needs for cargo handling in ports and terminals. It can handle semi-trailers, terminal containers and roll trailers. In Ro/Ro applications, Kalmar uses its low clearance cab with minimum turning radius for those tight maneuvers.

Cargotec produces their Ottawa 6x4 terminal tractor which is a 6x4 tandem axle truck for over-the-road transport (in North America) of containers and trailers.
