X-factor lifterFebruary 1st 2009
Packline has introduced an X-Frame configuration to its range of Compac stainless steel mobile lifters.
Designed specifically for lifting reels of packaging material stored on pallets, Packline says the Compac with X-Frame configuration allows greater access, particularly to reels stored at the corner points on the pallet.
The X-Frame straddles the corner of the pallet, positioning the Compac's lifting attachment closer to the reel.
This makes it easier for the operator to align prior to lifting.
