LencrowMaterial Handling’s search for
amoremaneuverablemachine towork
more safely in construction andmining
environments led them to the southof
Spain andAntonioMartinez, at Bomaq.
AntonioMartinez has designed anew
all terrain forklift that overcomes the
limitations of previousmachines.
Antonio’s challenge startedwith the
need for a compact unit that is a four
wheel drive (4wd)machinewith the same
turning circle as a twowheel drive (2wd).
Theunit still had to retaingoodground
clearance aswell as the torqueneeded for
off roadoperation.
Antonio said: “It took three years toget
Bomaq all-terrain forklifts
thedesign that offers a3000kg forklift
withonly 3025mm from faceof fork to
rear of counterweight, 1475mmwide
and 2100overall height. The turning
radiuswehave achieved is 2590mm
for 2wdand 4wd. Theunits havea
great designand employ all thebest
components toprovideoutstanding
performance and reliability.”
