What are the benefits?

Flexibility - Most unloading systems are attached to the vehicle, whether a tail-lift or crane, these a permanent fixtures.

The Palfinger truck mounted forklift is independent of the vehicle allowing the same forklift to be utilised between many vehicles.

This suits many operators in scenarios where only certain delivery routes or product types require self unloading.

Payload - This independence also offers another advantage over predominatley fixed systems, if the maximum payload of the vehicle is required the forklift can be left behind to allow more goods to be carried, a luxury not permitted with a crane or tail-lift.

Truck / Trailer / TMF Replacement - The Palfinger TMF can be swapped and changed between trucks and trailers giving flexiblity for when trucks / trailers are either off the road (for example due to service or MOT) or need replacement.
