Since 1976, Taylor Machine Works has manufactured, engineered and marketed empty container handlers. The "Big Red" line of empty handlers reflects the experience and knowledge gained during those years. The Taylor empty handlers are called the "All American" models since they are manufactured and engineered within the USA. Taylor is consistently on the cutting edge of industrial technology. The company strives to maintain their commitment of manufacturing and designing the best and most productive, most reliable container handling machines around, anywhere in the globe.
The company's empty container handlers are equipped with a wide range of attachments and masts so as to better meet your particular requirements. The following is a list of units with their standard mast and attachment.
In order to pick 20 feet throughout 53 feet empty reefer containers and empty ISO standard containers, the TECDS-150H Attachment is able to expand. Any containers measuring more than 40 feet must have standard 40 feet ISO pickup points. The attachment has 4 corner twist-locks as well, electrical signal lights inside the cab, hydraulic slewing and 2 work lights.
The ELME attachment is designed to handle 2 20 foot or 40 foot empty ISO standard containers simultaneously.
