A repacker with a hydraulic platform is a versatile type of transport designed to facilitate loading of the vehicle on the platform, which has a lift-slide mechanism.

The vehicle is then fixed and transported to its destination. It is advisable to use the service when the vehicle has a serious road defect, or after an accident or other reason that prevent the free movement of your vehicle.

The peculiarity of this kind of special equipment is - a system of hydraulic cylinders for careful loading of a car on a sliding platform. Moreover, to lift the vehicle on the platform, the towing vehicle is equipped with an electric winch.

Wheel brakes and self-tensioning belts are used for secure fixing.

The hydraulic platform is made of high quality steel, has a perforated surface and the ability to fix belts and wheel brakes in different positions. The platform package includes: side panels in corrugated aluminium.

The main advantages of the hydraulic platform

If we compare a standard tow truck equipped with a winch and a tow truck with a hydraulic platform, then the main advantage of the latter can be considered as the safest loading of any type of vehicle.

The sliding platform allows evacuation of:

    - a car with a locked steering wheel, wheels or transmission;

    - the car is not in motion or its individual parts;

    - from gullies or deep ditches without the need for an additional manipulator;

    - low-level sports cars.

There are no ramps on skid steer tow trucks, allowing you to get as close to the evacuation site as possible, meaning loading times are significantly reduced.

Sequential workflow of a towing vehicle with a hydraulic platform:

  • The sliding platform is positioned at right angles for optimum vehicle loading. A winch can be used for added convenience.
  • The winch allows you to minimize the distance from the car to the hitch.
  • The winch mechanism is then used to pull the defective car onto the platform and bring it to its original position, lowering it smoothly onto the frame of the towing vehicle.

All that remains is to securely fix the transported vehicle using a restraint and specialised belts.

Modern models are distinguished by high reliability in use and practicality. Stabilization systems allow you to keep the evacuated vehicle in a horizontal position, excluding damage.

All drivers without exception are interested in vehicle safety during loading and transport - this is predetermined by the type of repatriation . Currently, the most affordable and safe vehicle is a special transport with a hydraulic platform. If the evacuation is carried out with suspension on the rear or front axle, the load will be distributed unevenly. This may cause deformation of certain body parts when driving on rough roads.

During the transportation of the vehicle, the owner can accompany it to its destination or write a power of attorney in the name of the workshop employee. In the latter case, it is necessary to describe in detail the existing damage. The cost of the tow truck service depends on the time of day, the complexity of the situation and the distance between destinations.
