First five TERBERG tractors, model BC182 in France

 

The TERBERG yard tractor BC182 has been specifically designed for the transfer of boxes on swap bodies. It has been made to take boxes from stocking areas and transfer it on quays without manual handling and vice versa.

 

CHRONOPOST INTERNATIONAL, one of the French leaders in the delivery of small parcells, has turned its strategy towards swap body boxes. Far more lighter than trailers, swap body boxes are much more easy to handle. Two swap body boxes equal a trailer volume and it can be dispached down town without breakdown. Therefore, this solution is very flexible for the delivery of small parcells, in particular small parcells for the clothing industry.

 

The main advantages of this tractor are:

- High precision in the handling of boxes.

- Great lifting height (hydraulic) that enables taking any kind of boxes and transfer it without being obliged to pull the swap bodies down.

- Maximum security when long-distance tranfers thanks to a hydraulic blocking device.
