At the 2024 Work Truck Week, Stellar Industries introduced some of its more recent creations to attendees. The company featured a few of its new advancements to its popular lines.
According to the press release:
Stellar Industries, a manufacturer of mechanic trucks, cranes, tire service trucks, hooklifts, trailers, and service truck and van accessories, showcased its latest innovations at Work Truck Week. Exhibited at booth No. 2629, Stellar unveiled significant enhancements to its TMAX Mechanic and Service Truck line, including new bale-style pull handles, along with a range of other equipment designed to meet the evolving needs of its customers.
Stellar debuted its new bale-style pull handles on its toolbox systems and several other key enhancements to the TMAX Mechanic Truck line. Additionally, Stellar will showcase a range of other products, including the NXT18 Hooklift, single-stage and two-stage reciprocating air compressors, Hybrid Power Source (HPS), and 880 Multi-tank Fuel Trailer. Furthermore, attendees had the opportunity to interact with 3-D configurators at the Stellar booth to better visualize how Stellar equipment can meet their specific needs with ease.
Bale-style Pull-handle Toolbox Systems
Designed with user convenience and versatility in mind, the bale-style pull-handle toolbox system features a unique dual-action handle design that allows users to activate the latches by grabbing the handle from either above or below. This easy-to-use design offers a more ergonomic and user-friendly experience.
Additional Enhancements to the TMAX Lineup
Aimed at enhancing functionality and the user experience, updates to the Stellar TMAX lineup include new boom-tip lights on cranes, which offer a smaller profile to fit into tighter spaces and feature six LED lights for optimal brightness. Additionally, the TMAX’s new tailgate offers a cleaner aesthetic, while cabinet door enhancements, featuring stronger hinges and thicker plates, enable the doors to perform better in windy conditions and maintain rigidity as needed.
Attendees also had the opportunity to explore the addition of drawer sets in the rear workbench of the TMAX, providing additional storage space while still allowing for storage below, making it an ideal option for items such as chains, shovels, and sledgehammers that are not sensitive to getting bounced around. The relocation of the backup camera lets operators have a clearer view of the hitch, facilitating smoother operations, and allowing for a cleaner wiring path.
“Our continuous dedication to listening to our customers and refining our product lines is evident in the enhancements we’ve made to the TMAX series and the other equipment we’re showcasing at Work Truck Week,” said Tim Worman, director of project management at Stellar. “At Stellar, we are always listening, always adapting, and continuously striving to improve even the finest details to make our customers’ jobs better.”
