Long reaching benefits
April 1st 2011 A leading UK provider of forklift
truck attachments has designed and
developed a unique product to help
one of its customers solve a complex
loading conundrum.
Contact Attachments, based in
Mid Wales, supplied a special
mechanical scoop to Priory Cast
Stone, which has enabled the firm to
conveniently load their mixers with
sand and limestone in a simple and
efficient way.
John O'Hare, commercial
director at Priory Cast Stone, says:
"We are delighted with this new
product and, with its highly
functional measuring
characteristics, we are now able to
gauge exactly how much sand and
limestone we are loading. Not only
that, but it has also eliminated the
need for our team to manually load
the mixers by hand, which has saved
us considerable time and effort."
Fabricated using 6-8mm thick
steel to ensure long-lasting
durability, the Multi-Scoop boasts
long-reach capabilities to help
unload material into the centre of
lorries as well as a shallow tipping
arc allowing convenient discharge
where headroom is confined.
David Manuel, technical sales
consultant at Contact Attachments,
says: "Our range of forklift
mechanical scoops are highly
regarded in the industry for their
quality of build and workmanship,
and offer our customers a safe,
reliable and efficient way of adapting
their forklift trucks into an effective
loading shovel." More articles from Contact Attachments Limited: |
