The Transtak® fruit bin carriers range will transport 3–6 bins at a time from the orchard to packhouse or shed.
Transtak 1500L bin carrier
The Transtak 1500L bin carrier has the capacity to load and carry three 1200mm x 1200mm bins at a time.
This registered design of low-lift bin carrier simply slides the 3.65 metre forks under the bins, lifts and carries the load, then lowers the bins to off-load. Very easy to operate by any tractor driver. It has rubber load-cushioning suspension.
Transtak 1500LE
The Transtak 1500LE bin carrier has the capacity to load and carry three bins; or four bins at a time with the plug-in extension forks. It has rubber load-cushioning suspension.
Transtak 3500N
The Transtak 3500N has the capacity to load, carry and stack bins; with the capacity to carry two layers of three bins (six bins at a time).
A recent development for this model is the side–shifting of the forks to assist with stacking the plastic megabins.
This carrier when front mounted to a 4-wheel drive orchard tractor will move 200–250 bins a day on larger orchards.
