Combilift branches out in new direction
Monaghan, Ireland
Combilift has launched its latest product, the Combilift Container Lifter.
Developed for the container haulage industry, the Container Lifter eliminates the need for ramps, cranes and reduces waiting time, and allows safer ground-level loading and unloading.
The machine’s crane arms hydraulically move along the chassis, enabling it to lift 20-, 30- and 40-foot containers up to 34 tonnes. It can lift two smaller 20-foot containers simultaneously, and containers can also be transferred from one trailer to another.
