Growth rates in road haulage are clearly increasing particularly in<br />

the areas of combined rail/road traffic and swap body logistics. This<br />

has led to an increasing demand for special solutions regarding<br />

internal transportation proceedures in logistics centres, forwarders<br />

yards, freight and parcel centres. Wherever a large number of swap<br />

bodies, trailers and semi-trailers have to be shunted, repositioned<br />

and towed, this means that cost-effective solutions for fast and safe<br />

moving operations are required. The "Wiesel" product range which<br />

has been developed by KAMAG – a TII Group company – optimally<br />

fulfills these requirements.<br />

Thus, customers can universally use the swap body transporter of<br />

the TII Group at their respective logistics centre as the “Wiesel” can<br />

accommodate all standard swap bodies due to the standard parking<br />

height of only 950 mm along with the jumbo swap bodies, as the highvolume<br />

swap bodies are called in the industry. Additionally equipped<br />

with fifth-wheel couplings for drawbar trailers and low-coupled centre<br />

axle trailers or with a fifth wheel coupling, all yard movements in a<br />

terminal are possible with only one machine. Highest operational<br />

comfort for the driver is guaranteed. Using only one step facilitates<br />

easy entry to the low-positioned driver’s cab. By means of a joystick,<br />

the driver can operate all functions such as forward movement and<br />

reversing, lifting and lowering of the lifting frame, automatic locking<br />

of the swap body and is thus able to safely and quickly move swap<br />

bodies, trailers and semi-trailers. The “TruckWiesel”, the terminal<br />

tractor from the TII Group, is equipped with the same joystick operation<br />

which was specially developed for moving semi-trailers. Once again,<br />

fast, safe, universal and thus cost-effective use for the customer is<br />

of primary importance.<br />

All semi-trailers, such as container chassis, box body semi-trailers,<br />

curtainsiders as well as 1 to 3-axle semi-trailers, are safely picked<br />

up, moved and set down by the “TruckWiesel“. Moreover, because fast<br />

moving operations means economic efficiency in terminal logistics,<br />

the fifth-wheel plate can be raised to 1,600 mm thus eliminating the<br />

need to crank the support feet during the moving procedure.<br />

Both the “Wiesel“ and “TruckWiesel“ are used by all major logistics<br />

companies, freight hauliers, parcel services and postal operators in<br />

all European countries.<br />
