The latest Moffett truck-mounted forklift continues the tradition of excellence that the company is known for. Designed for applications where loading is done from one side of a truck, the Moffett M10 25.3 is based on extensive research and consultations with customers.

The M10 25.3 piggyback forklift has a telescopic boom that allows for loading and unloading of single stacked loads from one side of the truck or trailer. Because there is no need to move the truck during loading and unloading, the M10 saves time and boosts efficiency.

Time is also saved by the quick mounting and dismounting cycle of the Moffett forklift. Operators can have the forklift off the truck in less than a minute, meaning there is no time spent waiting on site.

Designed to be durable and operator-friendly, the M10 25.3 offers the same ergonomics and performance as forklifts with a conventional mast, but with its telescoping boom, it also provides additional functionality and versatility.

The M10 offers many great features: 360º visibility from the spacious operator’s cab; easy joystick control; a 37.3 kW / 50hp Kubota engine that offers excellent performance with reduced noise and vibration; off-road capability; a tight turning circle that makes it ideal for confined spaces; and easy servicing.

Suited for turf and lawn, fertilizer, brick and block, architectural stone, animal feed, scaffolding and any other industry where loading is done from one side of the truck, the M10 is an indispensable asset that will improve efficiency and customer service.

Hensel Ready Mix is proudly promoting the Front Discharge Mixveyor from Atlas Polar. On the first page of their website and in the flyer included here in PDF form, the company boldly states that it has “the first and only Front Discharge Conveyor Ready Mix Truck in the United States.”

Founded by Clarence Hensel, it is now operated by his son Rodney, company president. The third generation entered the business when Ben Hensel assumed the role of general manager.

In addition to supplying ready mix concrete with its fleet of trucks, the company also has a portable ready mix plant available for on-site work.

In their promotional materials, Hensel Ready Mix makes note of the many benefits of the Front Discharge Mixveyor: lower cost, versatility, flexibility, and easier access to hard-to-reach areas. They also talk about the remote control and the ease with which pouring can be controlled from the cab or the placement area.

Back in February we talked about the upcoming open house at Shumaker Industries, an Atlas Polar dealer in Pennsylvania. We knew that their decision to feature the Front Discharge Mixveyor would get attention, but we were thrilled to hear how much demand there was to see this product.

It turns out that local ready-mix producers couldn’t wait to see the new Mixveyor. When they heard that Shumaker Industries was installing the nation’s first Front Discharge Mixveyor, they began asking for a demo. So Shumaker decided to hold an open house.

The open house was held February 25 and 26, 2010. As the staff at Shumaker can tell you, the weather did not work in their favour. Despite the snow, local producers turned out in great numbers so they could see what the staff at Shumaker referred to as “the most innovative development in concrete placement since the front-discharge mixer.”

At the open house, guests were able to see the Front Discharge Mixveyor up close. Seeing it in action showed them how the conveyor would fit into their businesses.

The Mixveyor really got everyone talking and no wonder. It offers a unique set of features that cannot be found elsewhere, including: greater visibility and manoeuvrability; longer life from better cleaning and storage options; and standard Polar Remote Controls to make operation easier.

Customers of Shumaker Industries in Northumberland, PA are invited to attend a very special open house on February 25 and 26 from noon until 6 PM.

The open house will introduce customers to the new Atlas Polar Front Discharge Mixveyor—currently the only front mounting system available for pouring concrete. This versatile piece of equipment allows for quick, efficient and safe pouring of ready mix.

Our front mounting ready mix conveyor offers an extended reach and allows operators to pour concrete in a 220º radius around the truck. With a single beam design, it is lighter but still allows for a delivery capacity of 78 cu. yards per hour. Operators can control the concrete conveyor from inside the cab, making it possible to maneuver around objects with ease and pour precisely from up to 36’ away.

For all of the details on our newest ready mix conveyor, visit the Front Discharge Conveyor page on our website.

At the Shumaker open house customers can speak with Atlas Polar technicians and learn more about these new Mixveyor front discharge conveyors and how they improve ready mix delivery. Visitors can also tour the Shumaker production facility and grab a burger.

We’ve seen an increase in the use of different tarping systems here in Canada over the last few years and our customers are finding intriguing ways to combine the tarps and with our equipment to improve customer deliveries. How can you keep loads dry without sacrificing load volume and weight? With rolling tarps from firms like Chameleon.

With their light weight, compact corners, and unobtrusive tensioning system, these rolling tarps give you significant load volume while leaving ample room for hooks and straps. Chameleon tarps are designed to fit trucks with truck mounted equipment, like HIAB cranes, Moffett forklifts and other Atlas Polar equipment. Chameleon can even customize a solution for special load requirements.

Not only do they protect the load you are carrying, rolling tarps offer a great advertising opportunity.
