We started with a “blank sheet of paper” when we asked our customers to challenge our engineers to develop a better automated lift. Given Heil’s long standing leadership role in automated technology, the challenge was a daunting task. But Heil ingenuity delivered.
The result is a collection system that can dramatically reduce your route time by as much as two hours a day, maybe more. Maintenance costs will nosedive, operating costs will plummet and profits will soar.
The Python is the ultimate automated lift. You wouldn’t expect anything less from the automated technology leader.
