New Multi Pallet Handlers: Safe, Clean and Economical

Advertisement - 25 Mar 2010

The patented 'permanent lubricating system' and the longer life expectancy single out the new multi pallet handler of Hans H. Meyer GmbH (Salzgitter). As the complete guide system is sealed and constructed with permanent lubrication, the greasing intervals can last for more than 1000 operating hours - the intervals are now aligned with the service schedule of the truck and additional maintenance for the attachment is no longer necessary. In addition, no grease comes into contact with transported goods which could easily happen with units designed with T or C profiles. Taking into account the contract duration of five years, the new MEYER multi pallet handler scores the lowest life time costs due to wear parts lasting longer and requiring little change.
