Ever since 1976, Taylor Machine Works has manufactured, designed and marketed empty container handlers. The "Big Red" line of empty handlers reflects the experience and knowledge gained during those years. The Taylor empty handlers are referred to as "All American" units as they are designed and manufactured within the United States. Taylor is consistently on the cutting edge of industrial technology. The business strives to maintain their dedication of engineering and building the most dependable, most productive and best container handling machinery around, anywhere in the world.
The company's empty container handlers are equipped with a huge range of attachments and masts so as to better meet your specific needs. The following is a list of models with their standard mast and attachment.
To be able to pick 20 feet throughout 53 feet empty reefer containers and empty ISO standard containers, the TECDS-150H Attachment is able to expand.
