Palfinger has introduced its latest models of hookloaders: the PS T 14 and PS T 18, with lifting capacities of 14 tons and 18 tons, respectively. Models labeled TEC are equipped with advanced high-tech features, while the SLD models offer essential equipment, standing out in particular for their exceptional performance-to-price ratio.
These new hookloaders are engineered using robust and durable components, making them suitable for a wide range of applications. Depending on the upfit configuration, they are ideal for use in municipal services, transportation and logistics, and construction sectors.

All models have been rigorously tested under various weather conditions and have proven to be highly reliable tools. Control options vary by model and customer preference, including radio remote control, in-cab operation, or manual controls on the left or right side of the truck. All systems feature hydraulic container locking. Platforms can transport containers of different sizes and capacities depending on the model.
A key feature shared by all models is the fast cycle time—42 seconds for lowering and 37 seconds for lifting a container.
