Shuttlelift Launches New Series of Double-Beam Mobile Gantry Cranes

By Design World Staff | September 26, 2011

Shuttlelift has announced the launch of a newly developed series of double-beam mobile gantry cranes designed to provide state-of-the-art material handling and operational efficiency at an exceptional value. As an industry leader in rubber-tired gantry cranes, Shuttlelift’s new “DB” Series was engineered in response to a growing need in the marketplace for cost effective lifting solutions for consumers needing to lift heavy, bulky items from production to transport.

The DB series gantry crane is the perfect solution for markets seeking high-quality crane performance and a high return on investment. The crane provides safe and quick picks, as well as minimizing costly maintenance and down time. When value is measured by the return on investment, the DB series provides exceptional functionality, efficiency and cost savings at every turn. Shuttlelift has created a crane with standard “extra” features that go beyond the industry’s expectations and provide something “more” compared to the competition. That is a formula that will allow customers to improve their operations and expand their business.

In this economy, plant managers have many alternatives to weigh when choosing a machine for on-site material handling. According to Shuttlelift’s director of industrial sales, Kurt Minten, “they want a machine that is efficient, versatile, and that will not only do the job but be easy to maintain and operate. These are important factors to a business when you want to find a complete lifting solution that will fit your specific needs.”

Shuttlelift designed the double-beam mobile gantry crane with the same legendary quality, service and reliable handling that the company is known for. “The DB series completes the Shuttlelift lineup of mobile gantry crane offerings for all markets and applications. It follows the ISL and SL Series product lines, as well as the SB series released last year. The DB series is our latest innovation to fulfill the needs of our customers,” said Minten.

To set Shuttlelift apart, valuable features are included standard on every machine. These features not only extend the life of the mobile gantry crane, but also allow precision control, provide exceptional operator ergonomics, and minimize maintenance and servicing needs.

Shuttlelift’s value-added options allow for greater crane performance with the Wireless Remote Control, Automatic Variable Throttle (ATV), Wireless Load Read-Out, All Wheel Electronic Steering, or the Auxiliary Power Hoist System (APHS). The mobile gantry crane will provide operators with greater control, cost savings and efficiency, all in one unit.
