C-Series Combilifts come in an array of mast options. Lift heights as much as nine meters and lift capacities up to 25,000 kilograms are available. Engines are available in LPG or gas, diesel, and battery or electric and the C-Series Combilifts can work within guided aisles as narrow as 210 centimetres wide.
Combilift Straddle Carriers provide the ability to carry heavy, oversized cargo like fully loaded containers that weigh as much as 35 tons. These loads could be transported all around a work site or facility and the Combilift Straddle Carrier could carry fully loaded containers where required, whether it be from the trailer to the ground, from the ground to the trailer, or from trailer to trailer. These kinds of equipment are a cost-effective, effective solution for many haulage, shipping, and distribution businesses, even those with low throughput levels.
The SL-Series is a lot different from other side-loaders due to its ability to drive in four directions. This multi-directional steering is available with the cab on the right or on the left. This hydrostatic, all-wheel drive lift truck can help businesses in lots of ways, one of which is to enable facilities to have aisles that are narrower. It also enables the capability to bulk or block stack by driving forward. This extremely manoeuvrable kind of truck is often considered to be a better option as opposed to lots of traditional sit-down sideloaders due to the many added capabilities and features.
