Hird Sales is taking impressive industry-leading equipment to the Executive Hire Show in February that showcases crane lifting, materials moving, glass installation and working at height.
The display on Stand I36 and in the external display area on 12-13 February at the Coventry Building Society Arena will confirm the broad range of high quality machines Hird Sales has to offer.
Carl Cooper, Head of Sales and After-Sales at Hird Sales, said: “We’re looking forward to meeting visitors at the Executive Hire Show. It’s an important event for us, which generates a lot interest.
“In simple terms, we offer something for every equipment hire specialist in the UK and internationally. If a rental company is looking to expand the range and capability of machines in its fleet, we have great options.”
Equipment on the indoor stand will include a Valla V46R pick and carry crane, a Winlet 400TL glazing robot and a Winlet ErgoMover electric material trolley.
In the external display area Hird Sales will be showing off at OctoPlus 17 tracked spider lift.
Pick and carry crane innovation
The Valla V46R is a highly-compact battery electric mini crane, with a safe working load of 4.6t and maximum working height of 7.2m, that is operated using a wireless remote control unit.
It is part of Valla Cranes’ innovative new V range of pick and carry cranes that push boundaries in being more compact, more versatile, more powerful and more ecofriendly than ever before.
Hird Sales can offer Valla V cranes with SWLs from 3.6t to 21t. The beauty of the range is that customers can select functionality to meet their needs.
For example, some models can be fitted with cabs, or can be supplied with telescopic chassis, which increase the distance between the front wheels and the counterweights to increase lift capacity.
Glass lifting made safer and easier
The Winlet 400TL is a battery electric glazing robot that can complete long shifts on one charge with no loss of power.
Its four powerful vacuum cups provide a maximum lifting capacity of 415kg, with a dual cylinder system so loads are safely held at all times.
It can be used to lift glass, plasterboard, wood, plastic and sheet metal and, when fitted with specialist vacuum cups, non-smooth materials as well, including glass-reinforced concrete sheets.
The Winlet 400TL has two hydraulic boom sections that provider greater reach. It also has all-terrain capability, and a linear side-shift function holds glass panels in the same plane for precision installation.
Hird Sales can supply Winlet glazing robots with lifting capacities from 375kg to 1,000kg, plus specialist versions to attach to telehandlers or that have tracks rather than wheels.
Move material with maximum productivity
The Winlet ErgoMover Wireless is one of a family of unique, high-performance electric materials trollies available exclusively in the UK and Ireland from Hird Sales.
With a maximum SWL of 1500kg, its hydraulic carrying deck can pick up products, for example plasterboard and plywood sheets, from trestles and set them down again at work sites.
Using the simple-to-operate wireless remote control unit, an operative can more easily drive the trolley across the uneven and difficult terrain often found on construction sites at a speed of up to 4 mph.
The Winlet ErgoMover Wireless’s long-lasting battery pack – it is also fitted with a 110v mains charger – provides a full work shift, delivering a highly sustainable materials transporting solution.
Models across the Winlet ErgoMover increase productivity by allowing materials to be moved more efficiently by smaller teams and greatly improve safety by eliminating materials handling risks.
High performance spider lifts
In the outdoor display are, Hird Sales will be showing off the Oil&Steel OctoPlus 17 spider cherry picker, a machine growing in popularity with rental companies due to its premium hire rates.
The highly-versatile OctoPlus 17 has a maximum working height of 17m, a maximum outreach of 7.6m, a tracking width of just 785mm, and a maximum basket capacity of 250kg.
The spider lift can be supplied with low-emissions petrol or diesel engine, in a bi-energy format with thermal and battery electric power, or as a full battery electric power machine.
The OctoPlus 17 platform has automatic outrigger levelling, with 3-speed tracking and a load/unload system, and a high stabilised chassis height of 630mm, greatly assisting working across uneven ground.
The spider lift is ideal for a wide range of tasks, especially in hard-to-reach and constrained spaces, including tree management, building maintenance, construction and cleaning.
