Agricultural telehandler 48T18-DPF

The Thaler model Thaler-Teleskoplader 48T18-DPF belongs to the category of the Mini-telehandlers and unifies all the advantages of a material handling vehicle with rigid frame and the 4-wheel steering system, especially in terms of safety at work and tipping loads. Guiding line was and still is the compactness in the overall dimensions, minimum overall width below 1.80 m and height above the cab of less than 2 m while keeping the centre of gravity as low as possible together with an acceptable ground clearance. The major advantage is the height of the shovel pivot pin of 4.90 m. The concept of telehandler has been respected in full: the cab has a centre position between the two axles and the telescopic lifting boom is placed in the centre of the handler in the direction of travel (not eccentrically positioned), both great advantages for driving comfort and live expectation. The 48T18 is part of our production range since the end of 2012 and we are continuously developing it to improve its versatility and reliability. Here is a small selection of highlights of its success story: -End of 2014 – Aigner develops a hydraulic three-point linkage in the rear, a bolt on version -May 2015 - Successful certification stability test – organised and tested by DEKRA - for operating the 48T18 with a working platform in a two-man operation -April 2018 - successful certification as a tractor by TÜV-Süd or, in German wording: LOF.
