The production line produces up to 24 vehicles per week at Dennis Eagle's Warwick headquarters and the new lifts from TotalKare are used in the PDI area at the end of the production line to carry out quality inspections before despatch to customers. The lifts are in constant use with a new vehicle entering the PDI area every one and a half hours to be inspected.
Duncan Curtlin, manufacturing quality manager at Dennis Eagle, says the new cable-free lifts are ideal for the production line because of their excellent manoeuvrability and elimination of trip hazards due to the cable-free technology.
He explains: "Our past experience with TotalKare - offering us great service levels and an all-inclusive lease hire package - made it a simple choice for us to choose them as the supplier of our mobile column lifts. The process was straightforward from beginning to end."
Adds TotalKare national account manager Brian Young: "We are seeing more and more of our customers choosing a lease hire option when investing in capital equipment. Lease hire allows customers to know their monthly costs for the next five years with no worry of unexpected bills coming into the business and the option of purchasing or replacing the lifts with new equipment at the end of the contract."
