Particular care must be taken when assembling a vehicle powered by electricity or a hybrid engine as the voltage is permanently between 400 and 700 volts. In order to carry out assembly work on an e-vehicle, workshop employees must therefore complete special electric assembly training. The involvement of all employees, from the design office, the production line, the assembly technicians and the quality department, enables a fast and professional installation of this special solution. The PALFINGER PHT 20 TEC 5 hooklift and a PALCOVER sheeting system were successfully integrated on the electric vehicle despite the safety precautions. In future, the innovative e-truck is to be used as a new demonstration vehicle for the Volvo network and for PALFINGER products and solutions in Brittany, France.

Another challenge arises when switching from the combustion engine to the truck’s quieter electric drive: If the engine is quiet, then the hooklift must be, too. In order to retain the advantages of the quiet e-motor during use, the workshop employees install a new hydraulic pump that was specifically designed for electric vehicles. The pleasant and quieter operation of the PHT 20 TEC 5 hooklift therefore benefits not only users, but also the entire vehicle environment.
In order to meet the requirements of future assembly projects, mounting competence centers are constantly working on new solutions. Their role is to examine and test the necessary requirements for the vehicle body and ultimately to develop functionally and aesthetically ideal solutions that also meet the safety standards and market requirements of vehicle construction. PALFINGER also sees successful assembly projects like this as a mandate that the company will continue to accept with passion in years to come.

A hooklift is a lifting and loading device that helps users transport various materials such as recycling, waste and much more. They are typically hydraulically operated and are mounted to a truck chassis. They also can be quickly interchanged on various truck chassis.
In contrast to the cable hoist, the hooklift allows the driver to complete the loading and lifting process from the comfort of the truck cab. The driver must exit the cab and operate the cable hoist from the side-mounted controls with a cable hoist. The hooklift offers a more convenient, comfortable and faster process allowing the user to complete jobs quicker and safer and therefore take on more work. Not only is a hooklift a great alternative to the cable hoist and a more versatile option than a standard truck with a fixed body. When a user has a fixed body, that truck has only one purpose, while the hooklift is only limited by available truck bodies. In addition, Hooklifts can carry a wide range of objects, allowing fewer vehicles needed to complete jobs.
More Accurate: Allows you to pick up a container at an angle rather than straight on
Increased Safety: As there is no cable on a hooklift, there is an eliminated risk of breakage
Save Money: Smaller trucks do not require a CDL license; therefore, driver cost is reduced
Affordability: Cost of ownership is lower for a single axle truck vs. a tandem axle truck
