The specific kinematics of the Synchron category is unique on the market. Its special design simplifies the handling of the containers: the risk of collision with the chassis is eliminated and the risk of material spillage is reduced. Ideal for low experienced operators, it requires the lightest level of service in the product categories and limits costs. This makes it a wise choice for rental companies and applications where driver turnover is high.

Easy handling

The PALFINGER SYNCHRON hooklift is simple to operate, requiring only one movement to control and offering clear visibility throughout the entire handling process.

By synchronizing the arm angle with the rotation of the middle frame, the system allows containers to be picked up at a reduced loading angle. This minimizes load movement inside the container and helps preserve its contents. The articulated design of the SYNCHRON hooklift also makes transferring containers to trailers easier.

These features make the HC 21 well-suited for inexperienced operators, making it an excellent option for rental companies or fleets with frequent driver changes. Over time, operators benefit from intuitive, fast, and precise handling that supports consistent productivity.
