Telescopic Forklift Mounted for Vertical and Horizontal Panels - 250/400kg
These units have load capacities of 250 and 400kg. They also have a great versatility because of their combined 9m wide working range; the 4 integrated hydraulic functions, as well as the complete independence of external energy sources.
The GAV and GAVH are the optimal add-on units for telescopic fork trucks for raising, lifting, positioning and assembling of large-sized sandwich panels and other wall panels in commercial and industrial construction. It features a centre platform for an operator to stand whilst fitting vertical wall panels. For horizontal wall panels, 2 side platforms can be fitted. (1 person per side).
Carrying capacity is 150kg for centre platform or 150kg for each side platform.
In comparison with the conventional assembly technology the use of the both of these units offers decisive advantages:
• Increased-working safety
• Cost savings due to shorter installation times and rationalization of work methods
• Smaller installation teams
• Relieving workers from heavy lifting tasks
• Saving of scaffolds and cranes
• Gentle transport and assembly of almost all sandwich and other building panels.
• Safety and security is ensured via a key lockable switch
Technical data:
• Power supply: 24v on board rechargeable battery system. Charger not integrated
• Lifting capacity: max. 400kg
• Net weight: - with lateral platforms: approx. 1070kg - without lateral platforms: approx. 850kg
• Hydraulic positioning in X-Y-Z direction (left/right, forward/backward, up/down)
• Dual safety system - 2 independent vacuum circuits
• Each vacuum circuit has a 2-fold safety and an integrated vacuum reservoir
• Two integrated vacuum meters (1 per circuit) and one charge meter
• Visual and acoustic warning facilities signal any deviation of the set condition
The OKTOPUS® may only be operated in conjunction with a type tested (AS) telescopic forklift that has been approved for these applications by Materials Handling P/L. The minimum weight lifting capacity of the telehandler must be 4000kg.
It conforms to AS4992 - 2004 section 5 and fulfils the European DIN EN 13155 standard.
