PostPullers features high speed powered puller

PostPullers, a UK company specialising in the manufacture of machines that remove posts from the ground quickly and easily, will use Intertraffic to feature a manual and powered puller. The PostPuller machine can extract posts with heavy concrete footings in minutes which otherwise would take hours of back-breaking work if done manually. The complete post and footing can then be simply wheeled away.

8342 PostPullers, a UK company specialising in the manufacture of machines that remove posts from the ground quickly and easily, will use Intertraffic to feature a manual and powered puller. The PostPuller machine can extract posts with heavy concrete footings in minutes which otherwise would take hours of back-breaking work if done manually. The complete post and footing can then be simply wheeled away.


PostPullers will demonstrate two models at Intertraffic Amsterdam: a manual unit which is completely self-contained and operated by a hand pump and a powered version which uses a standard hydraulic power pack carried by most hire shops.

Both machines produce the same powerful 4,000kg force and are capable of removing a post, complete with its concrete footing, with no digging or breaking up of concrete necessary, in under two minutes.

A few weeks ago, I watched a driver reverse a car from a parking bay at right angles to the road, straight into a car driving along the road. The accident happened at walking pace, no-one was hurt and both cars had body panels that regain their shape after a low speed shunt.

    Amsterdam City Council has chosen to move away from manual enforcement of its environmental zone, which is intended to keep highly polluting goods vehicles out of the city centre, and is installing an automated, ANPR-based system. The signs are not much to look at: white with a red circle and the all-important word Milieuzone ('Environmental zone'). But these signs mean that Amsterdam's city centre is strictly off-limits to polluting goods traffic. At the moment compliance is monitored by special wardens wh

Automatic number plate recognition (ANPR), using optical character recognition and image-processing to identify vehicles, plays key roles in traffic monitoring and law enforcement, access and parking control, electronic toll collection, vehicle security and crime deterrence. Overall, system performance is well rated, with high levels of
