Safe, space-saving solutions from Combilift
THE Irish specialist forklift manu-
facturer Combilift will be exhibiting
at EMO for the first time this year,
showing a selection of its customised
handling solutions, which are designed
for the safe, space-saving and
productive handling of the long and
bulky loads typically encountered in the
metalworking sector.
The manoeuvrability and versatility
of Combilift’s models means that they
can be deployed from the initial stages
of offloading raw materials, during the
manufacturing process, through to
the storage and dispatch of finished
products.
Exhibits will include the five-tonne
capacity C5000 XL model with high
ground clearance and roomy cab.
These robust trucks work inside and out
and on uneven terrain in all weathers,
making them tough and reliable
workhorses for universal applications
in the yard and warehouse.
Sideways travel with loads resting on
the platform also offers greater stability
and safer manoeuvring.
The award-winning compact Combi-
CB, which combines multi-directional
ability with counterbalance design, will
also be on show. Capable of handling
a mix of pallets and long loads, it is
available with load capacities of up
to four tonnes with a choice of LPG,
electric or diesel power.
Combilift’s portfolio encompasses
a wide range of products – from
pedestrian pallet stackers, four-way
forklifts and sideloaders, up to straddle
carriers, which can transport containers
and oversized loads weighing 80
tonnes. The company exports to over
75 countries and has won numerous
awards.
Visit Stand E35 in Hall 7 at EMO to
find out more about the specialist in the
long load handling sector.

Gruppe, said: “Thanks to optimised
manufacturing methods, products with
dual-phase steels and boron-manga-
nese alloy steels are produced and
processed into components according
to the customer’s request.
To reduce the weight and material
cost, structured and rolled tube materials
are welded using the high-frequency
welding process.
“To make these processes with the
highest quality and to develop our
business constantly we are using the
highest technology and most innovative
equipment such as the HF welding
systems from Thermatool. It is very
important to us to work with reliable

Simsek – who has provided the expedient
service and support that Thermatool’s
European customers expect.

innovation and technical excellence in
the welded tube market. The company
will participate in the ITA Conference
