HUBTEX wants to further strengthen its position in the growing market of military applications. As a result, it offers both standard and custom intralogistics solutions for the military sector. “We have continued to expand our knowledge of the specific challenges in military production and have been a reliable supplier to armed forces at home and abroad, including Germany, the USA, the UK and Japan, for over 30 years”, says Hans-Joachim Finger, General Manager at HUBTEX. The centrepiece of HUBTEX’s handling solutions is the multidirectional sideloader, which has been specially adapted to the requirements of the military sector.
Forklift solutions for every application
The transport of long loads, for example load carriers containing torpedoes or guided missiles, requires the highest level of reliability and precision – this is exactly what the ML 50 multidirectional sideloaders from HUBTEX are designed for. Their robust construction guarantees a long service life and high availability, even under extreme conditions. This reliability is particularly important in military scenarios, where vehicle usage often fluctuates and periods of high operating hours can follow phases of low use. The compact design also makes the sideloaders particularly mobile and manoeuvrable. The vehicles can even be used without problems in confined environments, such as ammunition bunkers with low ceilings or narrow passageways. At the same time, the large elastic tyres enable safe driving on unpaved outdoor areas. This combination of compact dimensions, drive and tyres makes the HUBTEX multidirectional sideloaders particularly suitable for use in extensive military facilities, both indoors and outdoors.
A special feature of HUBTEX vehicles is the ability to choose between fully electric and hybrid drive technologies depending on the intended use.
