Las Vega
s, Nevada (March 7, 2017) – Following the introduction of the electric drive, 12-ft. (3.6m) self-propelled telescopic mast lift, TM12E, at The Rental Show 2017 last week, Snorkel will unveil a larger 16-ft. (4.87m) version of the lift at ConExpo.
The Snorkel TM16E can lift up to 500 lbs. (227kg) to a platform height of up to 16 ft. (4.87m), and weighs in at 2,360 lbs. (1,070kg). The highly efficient electric drive system delivers longer duty cycles, thanks to drawing up to 50% less amps than the hydraulic drive mast lifts. The new electric drive system brings the additional benefit of a 0 in. inside turning radius, making it ideal for working in confined spaces, such as in stock-picking or retail applications. The TM16E also features an electric braking system, which minimizes the risk of hydraulic hose leaks because of its containment within a fully sealed unit.
