Elf and safety problems
December 1st 2007 Packline were one of the
only companies to take an
enquiry from Lapland
seriously, as direct from
Santa's Grotto came a
request to assist with a
lifting and handling
problem. After a recent visit
from Elf & Safety, Santa had
to find a suitable solution for
lifting sacks of toys onto the
back of his sleigh. The
design brief stipulated that
the main construction was
painted seasonal red.
Packline's development
team based the design on
the company's standard
range of Compac stainless
steel mobile lifters. Minor
alterations included
replacing the lifters castors
with ski blades and
insulating the main control
cabinet to protect against
the weather conditions.
The sack lifting
attachment was an
articulating mechanical
hand arrangement suitable
for securely gripping the
neck of the sack prior to
lifting and positioning safely
onto the back of the sleigh. More articles from Packline Limited: |
