Nimble Solution for Tight Storage Space

The Petersberg, Germany-based machine builder DIMOS will be celebrating its first-ever appearance at LogiMAT 2025, showcasing its Hawk electric multidirectional reach truck at Stand 10A21 in Hall 10. Designed for tight storage spaces, this ultra-manoeuvrable truck can carry up to 3 t and enables smooth changes in direction without stopping thanks to its 360° continuous steering.

The aisles in modern warehouses are getting ever narrower, their racks ever taller and the dimensions of the goods stored in them ever more varied – yet heavy loads still need to be transported and stored efficiently. This is where the DIMOS Hawk really comes into its own, reducing the need for fiddly manoeuvres that take up time and space with its 360° continuous steering and ensuring maximum efficiency when moving loads in any direction. The Hawk’s strengths are particularly welcome in the building materials, steel and wood trades and for door and window manufacturers or companies in the plant and mechanical engineering industries. Its versatility makes it the perfect truck for mixed use, where both palletised loads and long goods need to be transported sideways safely.

A compact champion for confined spaces

Available with a load capacity of 3 t, the Hawk impresses right across the board – from its flexible, fully electric steering to its compact design, which makes it a nimble companion for challenging storage spaces. This allows users to lay their warehouses out efficiently and maximise available space. Besides being low-noise, energy-efficient and emission-free, the fully electric drive also contains no hydraulic components, making it extremely low-maintenance and long-lasting. The braked load wheels fitted to the three-wheel running gear are another highlight, ensuring safe and even braking and acceleration and maximum directional stability, especially when handling long goods. What is more, the Hawk’s ergonomic crosswise seat cabin gives the operator an excellent all-round view, making operation easier in very tight spaces and during complex manoeuvres.
