Combilift USA (Greensboro, NC) offers a wide selection of customized equipment with lift capacities from 1,850 lb up to 200,000 lb that are designed for safe, space-saving and productive handling and storage of typical loads managed in fabrication shops.
These include stand-on trucks from the GT range, heavy duty XL models from the C series, the award-winning compact counterbalance design Combi-CB, an Aisle-Master articulated truck for VNA operation, and the new Combi-OP, the first purpose-built order picker on the worldwide market for long products. This man-up truck features a long platform to enable the operator to access long products stored at height. It is fitted with guide rollers to enable it to operate in existing guided narrow aisles of just 4.6 ft and it has a capacity of 1,000 lb. Its overhead guard, light anti-slip floor, self-closing platform gate and guard rails guarantee utmost safety, as does the travel speed and steering angle that automatically adjust according to lift heights.
The GT and GST models are a popular choice for steel service centers as a narrow cab reduces the overall width of the machine for operation in very narrow aisles, enabling much better use of available space and reducing on-site storage costs. It is also quick and easy for operators to enter and exit the cab for productive, time saving operation. The C10,000 XL model from the original C series is a versatile workhorse for offloading raw materials, working around production lines, handling and storing finished products in the warehouse. The “XL” denotes a large roomy cab and with higher ground clearance, making this truck suitable for work on tough ground conditions.
Combilift has expanded their range of pedestrian trucks to meet the growing preference for these over-ride-on trucks wherever possible due to safety reasons. The Combi-WR4 multidirectional reach stacker and the Combi-CS counterbalance stacker benefit from a common feature: their patented multi-position tiller arm enables much safer operation as the operator is positioned at the side of the truck when working in narrow aisles. This enables space saving narrow-aisle operation, eliminates the risk of the operator becoming trapped between the racking and the machine, and offers improved visibility, enhancing the safety of other personnel who may be in the vicinity. All of these lifts are characterized by a robust, straightforward design and build for reliable long-life operation that is easy to service and maintain. Diesel, LPG and AC electric power options are available, together with a wide range of options and attachments.
