stabau presents patented hydraulic technology for telescopic carton clamps (KKT): greater efficiency, less effort

stabau GmbH, formerly Schulte-Henke GmbH, has been manufacturing attachments for forklift trucks since 1974. Since January 2025, the company has been operating officially under the brand name stabau GmbH. The focus is on quality, innovation and customer-oriented special solutions – a claim that is also reflected in the latest product development: the telescopic carton clamp (KKT) with patented hydraulic solution sets new standards in material handling.

Through the use of synchronous cylinders, the system achieves a significantly improved working speed and precise synchronisation of the arm movement – without complex adjustments or additional throttling valves. This significantly reduces the installation effort. The synchronous telescopic extension is achieved with only one hose system and without complex additional valves – a clear simplification for users.

Advantages at a glance:

• Quick commissioning: No manual adjustment or complex valve technology required.

• Increased efficiency: Higher working speed thanks to the elimination of throttle valves.

• Operational reliability: Forced synchronisation reduces errors caused by incorrect control

This solution ensures greater availability in use, reduces downtime and enables low-maintenance operation – regardless of forklift model or operating conditions. The innovation underlines stabau's commitment to actively shaping the practice of intralogistics and optimising processes in the long term.

The new KKT is particularly suitable for sensitive goods such as household appliances, electronics or packaged food, which are often transported in cardboard boxes. The uniform contact pressure and high precision of movement help to prevent transport damage and make the system particularly attractive for industries with high throughput and high quality requirements.

stabau is also setting new standards in sustainability: the company has been certified according to DIN EN ISO 14001:2015 since 2024 and is thus committed to complying with strict environmental standards – a further step towards sustainable industrial production.

With a clear focus on functionality, safety and cost-effectiveness, stabau offers not only standard products but also customised special solutions – developed and manufactured in Germany in close consultation with the customer. The KKT is a current example of how stabau puts innovation into practice.
