Telescopic Spiders
Altequip proudly presents to Australia the Raptor 18ST from Socage. This is the top of the diesel telescopic Raptor range, and the specs reflect it. Working height is 17.8 metres with a lateral outreach of 8.5 metres. When precise positioning matters, the 190°+190° turret rotation and 60°+60° basket rotation do the work without having to reposition the machine. Bi-energy operation lets you run on diesel or switch to electric to suit the site. The 230 kg basket is detachable and carries a full crew load. At 2.2 tonnes GVW, it tows on a standard trailer without specialist gear. The 18ST is the one to spec when you need telescopic reach at serious heights.
The 18ST is designed around speed of deployment. Automatic stabilisation and electro-hydraulic controls get you operational within minutes of arriving on site, cutting down time between setup and productive work.
Working height reaches 17.8 metres with a lateral outreach of 8.5 metres. The 190°+190° turret rotation and 60°+60° basket rotation give you precise positioning in complex spaces without having to reposition the machine. The 230 kg basket handles a full two-person crew with tools and materials, and detaches when the application calls for it.
White non-marking tracks protect sensitive surfaces like lawns, pavers, finished floors, so you can move across residential and commercial sites without causing damage.
Safety redundancy is built in throughout. A manual emergency pump and auxiliary electric pump provide backup options if primary hydraulics need attention mid-job, keeping the risk of a full work stoppage low.
Compact enough to keep transport practical, capable enough to cover professional workloads at serious heights. The 18ST is the telescopic tracked platform for operators who need reliability and output across varied site conditions.
