Telehandlers accessories: types and applications
A complete guide to telescopic handler accessories and their different applications
Telehandlers are lifting machines with telescopic arms that can extend vertically and horizontally, reaching remarkable heights. Thanks to this feature, telehandlers are particularly versatile and can be used in a wide range of industries and applications. In the field of construction, for example, they can be employed inside construction sites to lift and place heavy materials such as bricks, concrete blocks and metal beams. In the logistic field, instead, they are often used in order to enliven goods inside warehouses and centers of distribution.
What makes telehandlers even more versatile is the possibility to equip them with different accessories according to the specific needs of the job. Each accessory is designed to perform specific tasks efficiently and safely and allow to increase the productivity and effectiveness of the machines reaching different working heights.
Let’s see in detail the main types of telehandlers accessories and their different application possibilities.
Telehandlers accessories: types and characteristics
Telehandlers accessories are fundamental tools to extend the functionality of these machines and make them even more versatile and adaptable to a wide range of operations and height work. Among the main types of accessories are forks, indispensable tools for lifting and transporting heavy materials such as pallets, wooden beams and pipes. Forks are available in different lengths and lifting capacities, ensuring maximum flexibility to meet the specific needs of the work to be performed. Their ability to lift heavy loads makes them essential in industries such as construction, logistics and agriculture, where large materials need to be handled efficiently and safely. In addition, forks can be accessorized with additional features, such as width adjustment, to adapt to a variety of loads and working conditions, further increasing their versatility and utility.
Other essential accessories for telehandlers are buckets, which are often used to transport materials such as sand, soil, gravel and debris. Buckets are designed with a particular inclination to easily unload their contents, ensuring a fast and efficient discharge process. Their ability to handle large quantities of material makes them ideal for a wide range of applications, from construction to agriculture. In some specific cases buckets can also be used to dig (thanks to the presence of special teeth on the blade) and be equipped with safety grilles or hoists, to further increase their practicality and versatility in the field.
Among the most used telehandler accessories we also find:
- fixed falcon or winch, characterized by a truss structure of low weight and high rigidity under load. It is ideal for lifting, transporting and positioning suspended loads. The winch falcon is equipped with hydraulic stop and control valves for the descent and end of stroke on both the climb and the descent of the hook, ensuring precise and reliable control during lifting operations;
- raft hook, an accessory designed specifically for lifting and handling suspended loads. It is particularly useful in industrial and construction sectors where it is necessary to lift and place heavy materials safely and accurately. Its robust and durable structure allows you to cope with loads of various sizes and lift weights with ease and reliability;
- raft winch, designed specifically for lifting suspended loads. Thanks to its robust construction and the presence of an integrated winch, this accessory offers a safe and controlled lifting of loads. It is especially useful in situations where it is necessary to lift heavy materials in hard-to-reach positions with other equipment.
Telehandler man baskets: another essential accessory for height work
Telehandler man baskets are one of the most common accessories used with telehandlers. It is equipped with a spacious platform and a safety system to ensure maximum stability during lifting operations, allowing operators to work safely even at high heights. Its ability to lift workers and equipment makes it ideal for a variety of applications, including maintenance work, installation, repair and cleaning on buildings, infrastructure and facilities.
The use of a telehandler basket can provide several advantages. First of all, it is a safe and controlled solution to carry out work at heights in places that would otherwise be difficult to reach, significantly reducing the risk of accidents at work. In addition, the basket can lift equipment and materials, allowing operators to carry with them everything they need to complete the work at height, increasing efficiency and productivity in the performance of the work.
