Bespoke material handling solution

Posted on Friday 1 January 2010

Bradshaw Electric Vehicles, a leading manufacturer of industrial electric vehicles, has provided a bespoke tow tractor to a dump truck manufacturing company, in order to provide a material handling solution.

The tow tractor T30, with tow load capacity of 30 tonne, needed an 1800mm clearance between the wheels in order to go over a pit in the paint shop, which was achieved by fitting 2 off drive motors to the rear wheels, special build chassis with offset cab.

The T30 tow tractor has six individual braking systems, twin headlights, sidelights, reverse lights, indicators, hazard warning lights and cab heater.  Safety features include safety seat cut out, electronic regenerative braking under deceleration, dynamic speed sensing to prevent over-speeding in all driving conditions, automatic hill hold and automatically applied parking brake.

Bradshaw offer a bespoke design and manufacture service, anything from designing small modifications to the existing product range to fit a specific requirement, to designing a completely new product fit for task.
