CAT Empty Container Handlers Arlington

More than 80 years ago, a gentleman named Lester M. Sears believed it could be a good idea to adapt a farm tractor for industrial use. He came up with the "Model L," and although it may appear rather obsolete now, it was packed with new ideas. The machinery revolutionized and transformed the materials handling industry.



Lester's initial truck provided innovations which have become basic nowadays in the lift truck industry. Amongst these important features include: rear-wheel steering, wheel drive, hydraulic tilting and lifting and high speed forward and equal reverse gears.



In 1965 the corporation was acquired by Caterpillar and Lester began "Towmotor" and then started CAT Lift Trucks. With the same commitment to sensible solutions, dedication to exceptional reliability and new ideas, CAT enjoys thinking that they are direct descendants of Lester's. The Model L was really effective and strong that the prototype worked hard for over 30 years prior to finally retiring.



It was then during 1992, when Caterpillar joined Mitsubishi Heavy Industries in a joint venture. They brought together technological strengths and financial and marketing strengths in the production of material handling equipment. The corporation has had their head office within Almere, the Netherlands ever since that time.



At present, CAT Forklifts are amongst the best-built within the industry. These machines are available in LPG, diesel, electric counter balanced units and gasoline engines. The company makes an entire line of warehouse machines also. The local CAT dealers are among the best in the industry and provide more than 80 years of relevant experience.



The specifically engineered RTCH rough terrain vehicle could operate in as much as 5 feet of sea water. This specific unit can function on soft soil places like for instance unprepared beaches. The RTCH can handle the 8 foot wide and 20 to 40 foot long containers.
