Unedited press release: Intralogistics transport tasks include transport processes and material flows, for example in the areas of logistics, port operations, factory relocations and industrial rental services. „With the Eco500, a self-propelled module is now available that impresses with its compact design. The power pack is integrated under the loading platform and, with a basic width of 2,350mm, it is ideally suited to the tasks that crop up there“, says Adrian Zingan, Product Manager at Cometto, describing the new development.

The self-propelled vehicle can also play to its strengths in segments such as mechanical engineering and plant construction, wind and energy, aerospace, infrastructure projects, the heavy steel construction industry, the nuclear industry, aerospace and prefabricated parts.

„The Eco500 guarantees full functionality even at a low driving height of 670mm. The electronic multi-mode steering makes the self-propelled vehicle extremely agile, even in the tightest of spaces. And the robust and particularly strong chassis enables flexible load distribution.“

Modular and extendable

Typical of Cometto is the flexibility and adaptability that the Eco500 offers. The module is available with two or four axle lines, both variants being extendable by up to two „joker axles“ while maintaining the same wheelbase. Several Eco500s can also be combined together in a side-by-side, back-to-back or open combination.

It is even possible to install spacers when transporting long loads. This forward-looking modular design and its „connect-and-drive“ process bring heavy-duty tasks up to a user-friendly and efficient level.

Emission-free driving

The Eco500 also offers several variants in the drive area. There is a choice of electric, hybrid or diesel-powered models. Inside factory buildings, more and more attention is being paid to emission-free driving. In this case, the Eco500 provides the right answer. The software used in the power packs is fully compatible with all vehicle generations, guaranteeing a future-oriented and flexible investment.

The integrated Telemakhos remote diagnosis system is a globally accessible tool for intervening remotely if necessary. The MAXProtect+ surface treatment ensures maximum and long-term corrosion protection.

Compact pendulum suspension for maximum safety

Cometto‘s patented pendulum suspension is the most compact solution on the market. Thanks to an integrated safety valve, it offers outstanding protection and maximum safety. Adrian Zingan: „This technology is based on the design of Cometto‘s MSPE series, which can look back on decades of experience and thousands of jobs. It also provides greater ground clearance.“

All in all, this is an exciting product with which Cometto is expanding its position in self-propelled tasks in the intralogistics sector and beyond.
