Robust platform trucks June 1st 2011 A range of heavy-duty platform
trucks for transporting a wide variety
of long or bulky loads weighing up
to 32t is now available from
Sidetracker Engineering.
Available with electric, LPG or
diesel motors, the platforms are
designed for use inside buildings or
externally, and are particularly
suitable for situations where cranage
is not available, access is restricted or
forklift trucks cause safety problems.
Pedestrian or ride-on versions are
available, either free-ranging with
conventional or full 360° steering or
rail-mounted with flanged steel
wheels. Pedestrian models are
controlled either with a wireless
remote device or a controller with
cable connection. Protective cabs can
be included for ride-on models, if
required.
Load platforms can include jigs,
fixtures, mouldings and other
designs to suit the specific loads to
be carried by each truck.
The platforms are heavy-duty
machines incorporating many of the
features found on Sidetracker
Engineering's well-known multidirectional
sideloaders and reach
trucks to provide long-term
performance in demanding
industrial environments More articles from Sidetracker Engineering Ltd: |
