In just more than a decade, Combilift became a leader within the worldwide long-load handling market, providing machines to over 50 markets worldwide. Supported by a trusted international network of distributors that have assisted expand distribution into many markets all over the world and using their extensive knowledge and experience, McVicar and Moffett have built machines which are in high demand and had sold 10,000 models by mid 2009.
Below is a summary of several of the Combilift units.
There are a variety of mast options for the C-Series Combilifts, while these machinery offer as much as nine meters and lift capacities that top out at 25,000 kilograms. Available engines are in gas or LPG, diesel, and battery or electric and the C-Series Combilifts can work in 210 centimetres wide guided aisles.
Combilift Straddle Carriers offer the ability to lift heavy, oversized loads such as fully loaded containers that weigh up to 35 tons. These loads can be transported all around a facility or work site and the Combilift Straddle Carrier can raise fully loaded containers where needed, whether it be from the ground to the trailer, from trailer to trailer or from the trailer to the ground. These machinery are an effective, cost effective solution for lots of haulage, shipping, and distribution businesses, even those types with low throughput levels.
The SL-Series is much different from other side-loaders because of its ability to drive in four directions. This multi-directional steering is available with the cab on the left or on the right. This hydrostatic, all-wheel drive lift truck could benefit companies in many 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 truck is normally considered to be a superior option compared to lots of conventional sit-down sideloaders due to the various extra capabilities and features.
