Irish material-handling specialist
Combilift will showcase its latest innovations at
MACH 2022 (Hall 6, Stand 170), which is taking place from 4-8 April at the NEC, Birmingham.
In line with growing demand for cleaner and greener operations, the company has been focusing on expanding its electric range during the past couple of years.
Combilift CEO Martin McVicar said: “We made our first electric multi-directional C-Series model over 18 years ago, and now over 60% of the trucks we manufacture are electric. As more and more of our customers are opting for electric power it is obvious that they are as committed to sustainability as we are.”
The new multi-directional Combi-XLE combines quiet, emission-free operation with lift capacities of up to 5 tonnes. It features high ground clearance, large and cushioned front and rear tyres, and a spacious cab, allowing smooth operation on semi-rough terrain while also offering a high-level of driver comfort.
A further recent development is the new Aisle Master-OP (AME-OP) — a stand-on electric powered model that combines the advantages of a narrow-aisle articulated forklift and an order picker for ‘versatile operation’ in storerooms and warehousing facilities.
A main feature is its low-level step-through operator compartment with a height of just 280mm. Convenient, single-step access from both sides of the truck speeds up order picking compared to the operator having to get in and out from a seated position.
