Vehicle loader safely shifts shoes
October 1st 2007 A heavy duty vehicle loader
from Owens Conveyor
Company is helping with
the task of loading and
unloading container vehicles
at Start-rite Shoes.
The device incorporates a
tongue that is capable of
extending up to 11m into a
vehicle. At the push of a
button, the height
adjustment is varied to
accommodate many
different tailboard heights.
Standard safety features
include grab handles, popout
rollers, hydraulic burst
valves and low voltage
control gear.
The powered tongues are
now 'plug and play' and can
be replaced on site within
minutes. The unit also
incorporates a fully selflevelling
tongue
arrangement, eliminating
set-up time when changing
between different types of
vehicle. |
