The Uplifter company is currently the talk of the town. The pioneer and specialist for lifting and vacuum technology has not only brought on board an absolute specialist for the British market on an international level with Alan Peck, but is also in the fast lane on a European level with the new mini crane range. More standard equipment, more power, highest quality and durability, components from Europe and technical service from one source are convincing right away. With the distribution of these cranes by Uplifter in Western Europe, the company has reached a significant milestone in its more than 20-year career - and has even more promising goals under Martin Lobinger, which the founder of the company is pursuing intensively together with his qualified team from rental, sales, service and development.
Numerous trade fair visitors have already made an appointment with the Uplifter consultants at the bauma and were able to exclusively convince themselves of the Uplifter SPT499 mini crane, the all-rounder from the SPT series. German premiere! The Uplifter SPT499 is a powerful mini crane with an incredible lifting capacity of 5,000 kg. You will not find a comparable model in this class. In addition, the Uplifter SPT499 mini crane has a maximum working height of 17.5 m, which can even be increased to 22.0 m with a jib. The compact design, a narrow clearance width of 1.4 m, a clearance height of 2.0 m, a very good gradeability of 20° or 36 % and the low dead weight of only 6.2 t are also convincing features.
The mini crane Uplifter SPT499 is quickly available: Europe-wide from one source! Included in the price: extensive features are already built into the standard equipment; 100 % performance, no additional costs. Best prices, full equipment and highest quality. The practical hybrid drive is part of the standard version, for even more flexibility when working in industry and trade. It is driven by a powerful diesel engine or by a power cable / 380 V 5-phase, making it virtually silent and emission-free. Practical accessories such as manual jib, white chains, etc. can be added or retrofitted at any time.
But this mini crane was by no means the only visitor magnet at the Uplifter stand. Another top novelty caused quite a stir. Martin Lobinger and Peter Jauernig, managing directors of Uplifter GmbH & Co.KG, are particularly proud of this development result. "The whole team has done a top job and has shown us a perfect special construction and production result", says Peter Jauernig. The Uplifter development department in Nabburg/Bavaria has already made a name for itself in professional circles for years, and not only with the construction of the Glassworker, but especially in the areas of special machine construction and customer-specific developments. With the presentation of the first in-house developed transport device with caterpillar drive, the UPM1225, Uplifter is making a significant statement that stands for the skills and competences that are inherent in the company. "Technical progress and innovations that make our customers' everyday work easier are our goal. In times of a shortage of skilled workers and increasingly older workers, it is essential that the workforce is maintained for as long as possible through the targeted use of machines and that assembly work can be carried out in a way that is easy on the back but still fast and safe with fewer personnel," explains Martin Lobinger.
Quieter, higher and cheaper - the Uplifter UPM1225 revolutionises the market among tracked transport platforms. With the Uplifter Mover, the Uplifter development department has designed a device for load transport that guarantees the best price-performance ratio. The Uplifter Mover is particularly quiet in electric driving mode and can therefore be ideally used indoors and in noise-reduced zones. Thanks to its powerful electric caterpillar drive and extra ground clearance, this unit is more than capable of off-road driving and can easily overcome previously insurmountable obstacles; even slopes of up to 45° are possible. The fully proportional remote control ensures that the load vehicle can be steered very sensitively; small deviations can be compensated for without jerks by means of dosed rudder deflections and controlled with pinpoint accuracy so that the goods to be transported are not damaged. Operation is intuitive, smooth and fully proportional operation of the machine is guaranteed. Important machine information, such as the battery charge level, is displayed in the remote control system.
With a tare weight of only 340 kg, the Uplifter UPM1225 reaches a top speed of 3 km/h, which is appropriate for its weight. With its compact dimensions, the battery-powered UPM1225 is quickly loaded and can be transported in a sprinter from construction site to construction site. Uplifter Movers are built to be both compact and efficient. The low load floor height with maximum ground clearance, facilitates loading and at the same time increases stability. A high number of castors supports the optimal weight distribution of the load on the load floor, ensures smooth running and even allows the mover to negotiate steps. Uplifter tracked transporters are incredibly versatile machines with enormous capabilities and countless applications. The cost-effective and safe solution for load transport. Think about the health of your employees and save valuable labour and personnel costs. Increase the application possibilities and profitability of Uplifter tracked transport equipment to the maximum. Our design and development department is also at your disposal for special adaptations or special constructions. Uplifter has the alternative working method for your company. Ask for it now!
For Uplifter the bauma was a successful fair all around. The double premiere has already spread far and wide and the demand for the machines is gigantic. "Even we didn't expect such an overwhelming and positive response!" Martin Lobinger ends the conversation with a smile.
