The fully powered straddle Trans-Stacker, is used by Finnair for the transport of catering trolleys to and from cold stores.

The catering trolleys are running on their own wheels between the straddle legs of the Trans-Stacker and are pushed forwards/backwards by the Trans-Stacker. The supporting arms around the catering trolleys ensure that they are fixed and a band secures them when driving forwards/backwards. The Trans-Stacker has no forks and lifting function, but is only used for the transportation of the catering trolleys.

The manoeuvrability of the Trans-Stacker ensures an optimum utilisation of the space in the cold stores and storage areas. The solution is efficient and time-saving, and can transport 9 catering trolleys simultaneously. At the same time the handling of the trolleys is ergonomically correct!

• Very manoeuvrable – turning angle of 210°
