Speedpac Optimises Yard Loading with Hörmann Transdek Solution
We have enhanced our loading operations with the installation of a Hörmann Transdek 12-pallet Vehicle-to-Ground (V2G) yard lift at our Wellingborough facility.
The investment was made in response to a new high-volume contract requiring the efficient loading and unloading of double-deck trailers and other fleet vehicles directly from the warehouse floor - without the need for traditional dock levellers. The Hörmann Transdek V2G was fully installed and operational within just three days, with minimal disruption to ongoing warehouse operations.
With a 5.3-tonne capacity, the lift was delivered on-site as a pre-assembled, fully enclosed pod, with external cladding fitted as standard. Capable of accommodating up to 12 pallets, the 2500mm x 6900mm platform length allows for a full articulated vehicle to be loaded in just a few cycles. The lift is powered by a single hydraulic ram which offers reliable, durable, and low maintenance operation.
Demonstrating its exceptional versatility, the V2G lift was installed within an existing temporary structure, highlighting how the system can be deployed virtually anywhere, even in non-permanent or space-restricted environments.
“The V2G lift has provided an immediate and cost-effective loading solution, enabling us to operate efficiently ahead of the completion of our new dock installation project - all without the need for expensive and disruptive civil works,” said David Brocklehurst, Managing Director at Speedpac. “It’s a robust, highly efficient, and user-friendly system that has already become a vital asset to our operations, supporting a major new contract six days a week.”
“The Hörmann Transdek team delivered the project on time, within budget, and with a high level of professionalism,” he added. “The V2G lift has significantly enhanced our operational flexibility and capacity, allowing us to handle complex loading demands across a wide range of vehicle types with ease.”
