Glass Frame Transporters from 8.0 to 33.0 Tonnes
HUBTEX Glass Frame Transporters are applied in the float glass industry for the transport of A- and L-stillages up to 33.0 tonnes. They are available as electrically, diesel or gas powered trucks and can be equipped with Vulkollan (PU) tires for indoor use and/or with solid rubber tires for the combined indoor and outdoor application. Glass stillages are picked up from floor level by synchronous vertical lifting of the chassis with carrying rails. The special vertical lifting movement guarantees a safe and precise lifting of glass stillages without displacement. Four hydraulic clamps hold the glass sheets in place during transport.
Innovation and quality is our key to success. Since the company foundation HUBTEX has set standards with a number of developments and product improvements. The feedback of our worldwide customers is incorporated into the development and the design of new vehicles so that different market requirements can be met in the best possible manner.
