To commemorate this achievement, the company unveiled three groundbreaking products that highlight its commitment to innovation and excellence. These new offerings are designed to address the unique challenges faced by various industries, from offshore wind to warehousing and fleet management.
Combi-LC: revolutionising offshore wind handling
One of Combilift’s most exciting product launches is the Combi-LC Blade Mover, a testament to the company’s expanding horizons. This innovative solution marks Combilift’s entry into the offshore wind sector, where it aims to cater to the load handling demands of large-scale offshore wind manufacturers.
Developed at Combilift’s headquarters and manufacturing plant in Monaghan, Ireland, in collaboration with Siemens Gamesa, the Combi-LC is poised to transform the offshore wind industry. The Combi-LC has been meticulously designed to facilitate the seamless movement of wind turbine blades and towers through various production stages and onto storage locations. Its ability to handle oversized products with precision and safety makes it an indispensable asset for offshore wind projects, contributing to greater efficiency and productivity.
Combi-AGT: autonomous guided forklift excellence
The Combi-AGT autonomous guided forklift truck is engineered to revolutionise the way long loads are handled in narrow aisles. It can operate in guided aisles, ensuring optimal space utilisation, and can also roam freely when necessary. It offers users the flexibility of manual driving when required, making it a versatile solution. A 4-wheel electric stand-on sideloader, the Combi-AGT harnesses smart technology to meet customer demands for driverless sideloader capability with a capacity of 5,000kg. This enhanced adaptive safety system enables the size of the obstacle detection fields to increase or decrease as per the steer angle and speed of the truck. The patent pending load dimension detection system operates by performing a laser scan of the load to check that its length matches the task sent to the machine.
