Product Description
Combined Lifting and Towing
The MGC40 uses low-level lifting arms to raise compatible carts by 170 mm before transport. This allows one truck to engage, lift and move specialised load carriers without a conventional trailer coupling.
Designed for Specialised Material Carts
A 512 mm lifting-arm spread supports compatible carts used in textile and industrial material-flow applications. Load-carrier dimensions and lifting points must be checked before ordering.
Compact Stand-on Operation
The truck measures 850 mm wide and has a 1,725 mm turning radius. Its multifunction handle allows the operator to control travel, lifting and lowering from the stand-on position.
Electric Drive and Lift System
A 1.5 kW AC drive motor and 2.0 kW lift motor support controlled transport and lifting. The standard 24V/165Ah lead-acid battery suits regular indoor operating cycles.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: How does the MGC40 differ from a conventional tow tractor?
A conventional tow tractor pulls trailers through a coupling. The MGC40 uses lifting arms to engage and raise compatible carts before towing or carrying them along the route.
Q2: Can the MGC40 handle any material cart?
No. The cart’s lifting points, underside clearance, width and load distribution must match the lifting-arm arrangement. Compatibility should be confirmed from cart drawings or a physical test.
Q3: Can the MGC40 stack loads in racking?
No. Its 170 mm lifting movement is intended for engaging and transporting compatible carts. It does not have a mast and is not designed for high-level stacking.
Q4: Does the 4,000 kg rating apply in every application?
The allowable load depends on the cart interface, floor condition, gradient and route. The complete load-carrier arrangement should be reviewed before confirming the application.
