if your product is 1400 kilos thats roughly 3100 lbs
and is that right 6 meters long? that is large lol
so the load center,3 meters, converted to inches is about 118"
when using the osha calculation it looks like u would need a machine in the 11000 kilo to 15 kilo cap range
11000 kilo= 22000 lbs (about i know its not accurate lol)
22000 * 24 / 118 = 4475 lbs capcity which is about 2030 kilos not much grey area for the attatchment of that size
a 15000 kilo cap machine would have a reduced capacity of 2768 kilos (6102 lbs)
sounds like an expensive investment
