Hookloader & Skiploader Highlights
Noise or safety, why should you choose?
Whether it's to keep a sleepy street quiet or to reduce the sound level of a noisy site, the new "Silent mode" option can improve working conditions while maintaining a high level of safety.
When the option is activated, the traditional buzzer is replaced by three flashing lights to warn of possible arm movement. The lights are strategically placed around the hookloader for maximum visibility: one at the front and two at the rear. The safety of the work site is preserved and the operator handles the containers in better conditions.
View Following Function, the right cam at the right time
The VFF has been developed to allow a better control of operations from inside the cab. Drivers can see accurately and without effort, what they are doing. They can adjust their handling at the right moment saving time without compromising safety
Control your PALFINGER hookloader with ease
Whether it's unloading, loading or tipping, the automatic sequence control of the PALFINGER hooklift performs all the necessary hydraulic functions automatically one after the other.
Simply select the function, operate the joystick and the work cycle is complete. The movements of the underride protection, the hydraulic inner lock, the arm, the tipping cylinder and the optional functions such as axle stabilizers or the front body safety device are now carried out autonomously in the planned sequence.
All you have to do is monitor the process.
PAD Touch
The PAD-Touch control developed by PALFINGER is perfectly suited for moving the hooklift truck with a single joystick directly from the cab. The in-cab control precisely controls the movements of the container, while the screen informs the operator in real time about the position of the boom in its environment. PAD-Touch creates a new standard for boom control.
It is now available with an updated option to control the hook loader from external devices.
Time saver – Advanced Rapid Motion
The advanced rapid motion option increases the performance and saves time during container handling. More daily rotations are possible with less dead time and drivers avoid blocking the location for longer than necessary. It reduces the cycle time by enabling high speed operation while extending (-50%) and retracting (-30%) cylinders.
