Concept - Why use a Palfinger Truck Mounted Forklift?

"In about 60 seconds the driver had the forklift off the back and was unloading the lorry"

Self unloading An inevitable part of any transport operation is that the goods are loaded at one end of the journey and unloaded at the other. Being able to mechanically self unload offers advantages: No waiting to be unloaded Reduce manual handling Improved customer service Reduce product damage Bulk / Faster deliveries

Why not use a crane or tail-lift? Independence - Self unloading is nothing new with truck mounted cranes and tail-lifts both having long histories. A truck mounted forklift is quite different in that it can be detached from the carrying vehicle, advantages include: Deliver goods inaccessible to the lorry Utilise between more than one vehicle Load / unload in any order; Back Loads

Flexible - A truck mounted forklift can be used on many different types of vehicle Curtainsiders; flexibility and back loads Double deck trailers; increased volume Reduce costs - For many logistic operations the use of truck mounted forklifts can cut the costs of material handling.
