Compared with standard forklifts, what are the advantages of side lifter?

Side loaders do not need to turn like standard forklifts, so they can travel upwards next to racks or trucks and easily load and unload from the side.  The side loader is designed for narrow aisles and doorways. Long loads such as wood, steel or pipes are easier to handle because the load faces the direction of travel, thereby reducing the overall width and load of the equipment. The flat bed can stabilize the load and ensure safe movement

Since the load is on the side, the operator can clearly see it from front to back.  The new 37Ton side lifter trailer loaders have been developed as multi-directional machines, so they can move in all four directions by changing the wheel direction. Several things to pay attention to for side loader

Side loaders are not as easy to operate as standard forklifts (although multi-directional 37Ton side lifter trailer loaders have improved in this regard). The side loader is a special machine. Although they are great for long-term or awkward loads, consider other things you are trying to move, and whether you need to use machines to handle different types of loads, or whether a combination of different equipment works best. Another option for side loaders is a multi-directional forklift, which has the advantages of side loaders and standard forklifts.

The side lifter trailer loads and unloads containers through a pair of hydraulic powered cranes mounted at each end of the vehicle chassis. The cranes are designed to lift containers from the ground, from other vehicles including rolling stock, from railway wagons and directly from stacks on docks or aboard container ships. A standard sidelifter is also able to stack a container at a two containers' height on the ground. If the sidelifter chassis is of 40' length or more, the cranes of the sidelifter can be shifted hydraulically along the sidelifter chassis to be able to pick up either one 20', one 40', or two 20' ISO containers at a time.

As the 37ton side lifter trailer is suitable for travelling on general roads for large distances and able to quickly load and unload without additional equipment, it is often used for delivering and picking up shipping containers from within a commercial district. Although these can self load, they are more often loaded or unloaded at the port with a straddle carrier or reach stacker.

Safety

For standard ISO containers, the rated maximum total weight of the forklift and the maximum distance from the forklift chassis (also known as the maximum extension distance or maximum radius). The information is on the nameplate provided by the manufacturer, and the load must not exceed these specifications. It is well known that 37ton side lifter units can overturn like other cranes, especially when lifting weights heavier than the maximum allowable weight or operating with a radius larger than the maximum allowable radius. The side lift must always be operated by trained personnel only. Local regulations may sometimes require safety devices such as safety and stability systems to prevent side lifts from tipping over. The safety clothing of the operator and any assistants may include upper and lower reflector devices, including green or orange reflector vests and hard hats. In some jurisdictions, safety glasses are required to prevent debris that may fall from the container.
