[...] ce portique automoteur (ou «cavalier») sur pneus pleins souples est destiné à la manutention des carcasses bobinées jusqu’à 60 tonnes. Piloté à distance par radio-commande, le portique intègre 8 modes de direction. Son autonomie est totale, rendue possible grâce à un moteur thermique fonctionnant au gaz et entraînant 2 pompes hydrauliques, une pour le levage et la translation, l’autre pour la direction. Ce nouveau moyen de manutention mobile présente des avantages certains par rapport aux moyens fixes, types ponts roulants : il permet de transférer une pièce d’un hall à l’autre, sans dépose de celle-ci, et de stocker des pièces dans des zones inaccessibles aux ponts. 3, record 1, French, - portique%20automoteur
