Sidelifter

Side loader (also called container page Lifter ) are specially equipped semi-trailer or truck, usually for the transport and handling of ISO containers.

Load-carrying

The load suspension devices are locked with so-called container hook or spreader gripping tool in the four container twist locks to prevent accidental loosening. Side loaders are available up to a lifting capacity of 40 tonnes and can not only lift and transport normal container, but also so-called bulk, flat and tank container.

  • Side-loading species: 20 ft, 20-40 ft, 20-45 ft
  • Container Sizes: 3-13 ft Meter/10-45
  • Container height: up to 2.90 meters

Envelope process

Two hydraulic arms that can be attached to the saddle vehicle, a truck trailer, a two- three-axle standard truck or a railroad car and ensure an end load carrying allow you to up- loading or unloading of standard ISO containers with a maximum weight of up 32 tons. The envelope process is performed by means of a remote control from a truck driver. In this connection it must be considered that the side loader is unable to stack containers. A rear discharge is not possible, due to the construction of the hydraulic arms.

Technical possibilities

A side loader is based on the design principle of a crane, significant load moments occur when the lifting operation. The side-loading type BOXmover is no crane, since its use just any last moments occur, but the technique is very different - based on a power triangle, which prevents the development of bending moments. The two as legs of a triangle articulating telescopic hydraulic cylinders are able to lift loads a fully loaded cargo unit ( swap bodies with 16 tons and ISO containers with 32 tonnes gross weight) or decrease or laterally by means of chains or with a spreader - to move gripping tool in the twistlock. By two telescopic cylinders which in each case form a closed force triangle, the advent of bending moments is prevented, and occur during a transfer process, only compressive forces. This allows simple handling and thus a horizontal parking of the load units at any point and at any height level between the ground and the truck.

Areas of application

The use of areas of handling device are characterized by a wide range of applications: In traffic, the technology used for example in manufacturing companies for use. In the field of transportation of bulk materials often used as container transportation facility used. The combined cargo traffic, which is characterized by a high incidence of interfaces between rail and road, is dependent on seamless transport chains in order to benefit from its advantages can significantly. Containers are further used for disposal transports approximately in urban areas, as well as in seaport hinterland transport for container terminals.

These transport processes are dominated by the road / rail interface and can only be handled smoothly when long standing and waiting times, as well as lengthy loading and unloading can be prevented.

Side loader also be used for other purposes, for example in precast concrete construction. The illustrated side loader with vacuum lifter was one of the first special of Klaus from Memmingen and was used from 1975 to 1978 by the company Dobler in Iraq.
