Engineering firm takes agile forklift
IMI Hydronic Engineering has taken delivery of a MaxTruck 2T, which includes a hydraulic fork positioner, a 6m service platform, and a two tonne lifting boom.
IMI Hydronic Engineering – part of the global high-tech company group IMI – is using the forklift at its production facility in Ljung, Sweden.
The MaxTruck 2T is a 2 tonne omnidirectional forklift equipped with the patented MaxWheel.
The ability to drive in all directions ensures more efficient operation in tight working areas and more efficient and secure handling of large or long loads. Capacity is 2 tonnes and can be carried up to the maximum lift height of 4.2 metres.
Attachments and tools can be changed quickly thanks to the patented tool carrier; choose between forks, boom, service platform (regulations EN 280+A2:2009) or any tailor made tool.
MaxTrucks also use brushless AC synchronous motors which are 30-50% more efficient than AC asynchronous motors.
The MaxTruck 2T is on show at LogiMat 2017 in Stuttgart, Germany – Hall 9 Stand 9F73.
