ATK MTK / HTK UTK
ATK MTK UTK
Platform must be folded one time and then it will be moved 180 degrees to rest on the lifting arms. This is the simplest model with the lowest weight. The platform is normally one piece but it could be a two piece platform that travels behind the doors. Completely ready to install, including the sliding cylinder. The installation is very quick like our other new models. If an electrical short occurs, the platform can still be moved, to the travel position, because of the gas cylinder. The power pack is very simple and easy to maintain.

 

Perfection in every detail

The new AHT range of liftgates consists of a more cost effective two and three cylinder system compared to the well known 4 cylinder models.

The newest models were designed for small vehicles with a short overhang and low bed height. This also helps to increase the payload of the vehicle.

All new models are completely mounted, adjusted and tested before leaving the factory. The installation is very quick. No welding is required as the mounting brackets simply slide into place. Drill 8 holes and install the bolts.

WeightATK

Less weight means more payload and more payload means more income. AHT high strength aluminum profiles are extremely light in weight.

Example.: ATK-500ST/AL without underrun beam, ready for work, incl. mounting material: 382 lbs .

Long life and low maintenance

  • ATKCylindersare equipped with mechanical hose burstvalves to protect the driver and goods during lifting and lowering of the platform.
  • The platform will stop immediately, if a hose breaks, so the operator will not be injured and the goods are protected.
  • The 2-button control is equipped with a pull out protector to prevent an electrical short and also to protect the uncontrollable movement of the platform.
