HIAB electric Power Take-Off (ePTO)
Leise und emissionsfrei arbeiten
ePTO ist ein elektro-hydraulisches Aggregat für HIAB-Ladekrane. Dadurch kann der Bediener selbst bei abgeschaltetem Lkw-Motor wie gewohnt mit dem Kran arbeiten. ePTO bietet zahlreiche ökologische und wirtschaftliche Vorteile:
- 70% weniger Energieverbrauch
- 70% niedrigere Betriebskosten
- 30% geringerer Geräuschpegel
eRoller-Kran
Die stille Weiterentwicklung des Krans
Mit dem elektrischen Antriebsaggregat des Kransockels lässt sich der Kran auf der Ladefläche des Lkw leise an die für Belade- und Hebevorgänge optimale Stelle fahren. Die Einhaltung innerstädtischer Geräuschgrenzwerte und der emissionsfreie Betrieb machen dieses Produkt zu einer umweltfreundlichen Alternative, wenn herkömmliche Lösungen nicht infrage kommen.
Zyklon-Öltank: Gut für die Umwelt und Ihren Geldbeutel
Geringere Betriebskosten
Da das effiziente Zyklon-Tanksystem den Ölverbrauch senkt, verbraucht Ihr Kran während der gesamten Lebensdauer weniger Öl. So bleibt ganz einfach mehr Geld für Ihr Unternehmen übrig.
Höhere Nutzlast
Der Zyklon-Öltank hat einen geringeren Platzbedarf als andere Tanks und es wird viel weniger Öl benötigt. Der positive Effekt für Sie: Mehr Platz und eine höhere Nutzlast!
MULTILIFT + electricity = the future of urban load handling

- Ideal for discreet late-night and early-morning transport of containers.
- Combined with the Performance Package the hooklift uses less energy, ultimately saving battery power and further helping the electric truck to maintain its range.
Savings on all sides with MULTILIFT features
Innovative features for your MULTILIFT can increase your payload opportunities while simultaneously reducing your environmental impact.
- PerformanceOptions™ reduce your fuel consumption and emissions.
- Fast Performance™ and Sequence Performance™ save time and effort to boost productivity.
- Lighter and stronger steel structure increases payload while further reducing fuel consumption.
- Quiet Performance™ reduces noise pollution to surrounding environments.
Performance for a sustainable future: MULTILIFT hooklifts made from fossil-free steel
Hiab has partnered with the global steel company SSAB to pioneer the use of fossil-free steel with zero CO2 emissions in the load handling industry. The first product is a MULTILIFT Ultima hooklift that was unveiled at the IAA Transportation 2022 in Hannover, making it the first hooklift of its kind in the world.
Steel production accounts for 7% of the global CO2 emissions and steel components are Hiab’s main contributor for CO2 footprint when producing load handling equipment. From 2026, Hiab will start to deliver load handling equipment made from fossil-free steel, just as strong and long-lasting, but with zero CO2 emissions. By 2030, Hiab aims to make its own operations carbon-neutral providing true performance for the next generation.
