Landoll Drexel SL60AC / SL80AC SwingMast® is designed for high-capacity material handling

The Drexel SL60AC / SL80AC SwingMast® is designed for high-capacity material handling where warehouse space, narrow aisles and long-load handling are important.

The SL60AC has a 6,000 lb (2,722 kg) capacity, while the SL80AC has an 8,000 lb (3,629 kg) capacity at a 24-inch (600 mm) load center. The current product information specifies operation in aisles as narrow as 66 inches (1.67 m) based on a 48 × 40-inch load, with lift heights available up to 289 inches (7.34 m).

The SwingMast® front mast rotates 90° and provides 30 inches (762 mm) of side shift, including 3 inches (76 mm) of reach. This allows the forklift to perform VNA pallet-handling operations while also functioning as a side loader for long loads.

The four-wheel configuration uses independently driven front wheels and dual rear steering wheels. The design is intended to provide maneuverability and traction in narrow aisles while retaining the ability to perform high-capacity front-loading and side-loading applications.

The SL60AC is specified with 72-volt battery-electric power in the supplied technical data, while the current product listing identifies an 80-volt electrical system for the SL60AC/SL80AC range.

VNA & Side-Loading Capability

The SL60AC/SL80AC combines two material-handling functions in one machine:

  • VNA forklift: narrow-aisle pallet storage and retrieval.
  • Front-loading forklift: conventional pallet handling.
  • Side loader: handling, storing and transporting long loads.

The manufacturer identifies applications including bulk storage, cantilever rack, push-back rack, double-deep storage and operations involving steep ramps.

Long-Load Handling

A Long Load Handling Package is available as an option. The side deck configuration provides a dedicated area for carrying long loads when the forklift is being used in side-loading applications. Landoll-Drexel-SL60-Forklift-Ca…
