Heavy Industrial Forklifts

Super Heavy Forklift 18 – 33 t

Planned-purchase machine for slab, coil, large pipe and laden container work. Access, pavement rating and the attachment interface are settled before the order, because retrofitting any of the three is expensive.

Features

  • Effectively built around its attachment, so specify the attachment and the load first and the truck second.
  • Anti-rollover and load-moment monitoring, reversing camera and automatic reverse braking are expected and should be listed explicitly.
  • Transport needs a low loader and usually an abnormal-load route, with mast and counterweight often travelling separately.
  • Tyres are one of the largest running costs, and travel distance and turning technique change life by a factor of two.
