Are you fed up with losing valuable work hours due to back pain and injury through lifting heavy items in the work place?

Makinex has a reputation for Innovation, they took this common problem and solved it with the ultimate lift and load solution.

The Powered Hand Truck {PHT140} is a universal materials handling solution that enables one person operation, to safely lift and load equipment or bulky goods weighing up to 140kg (309lbs) onto bench tops and into vehicles.

This unique product is revolutionary to the industry, eliminating awkward and dangerous lifts and thus reducing back injury. The benefits are clear: not only improving work speed and efficiency but offering and easy alternative to using a forklift or tailgate loader

In 2014 Makinex Powered Hand Truck was awarded Best New Product by the Hire & Rental Industry Association.

Made of lightweight aluminium and powered by a 12V rechargeable battery, the PHT-140 easily manoeuvres equipment with a lifting eye by the use of a hook attachment. Knowing that not all goods have a lifting eye, Makinex also developed a fork attachment suitable for pallets. Providing a hook and fork attachment allowed for more versatility using the PHT-140

“Makinex are proud to design and develop unique product innovations that vastly increase productivity,” stated Rory Kennard, Director and designer behind the PHT-140. “We will always look at ways for tradespeople and contractors to do their job faster, safer and easier, and the PHT-140 will keep evolving to deliver that.”

Other innovations designed by Makinex include the Dual Pressure Washer, a two-in-one wand and rotary pressure cleaner system, the Jackhammer Trolley, a tile lifting and floor demolition tool and the range of Floor Saws for cutting through concrete and asphalt.
