HAUL, CLIMB, AND ROTATE. 
How would you like the ability to haul heavy material without getting stuck, climb steep terrain, deliver your material, and then drive back down your lane to pick up more material? Sounds easy enough. The challenge is that pipeline construction jobsites often operate with a narrow right-of-way (ROW), and heavy equipment that hauls material has challenges in turning around or maneuvering in tight, sensitive areas...until now.
 
PipeLine Machinery International (PLM) presents the PANTHER T7R Tracked Rotating Carrier by PRINOTH as a superior solution for this industry and its specific needs. Pipeline construction operators, just like you, gave us their feedback from operating this machine first-hand. See the top three reasons why the PANTHER T7R is the right choice.
PAYLOAD
15,432 LB. / 7 000 KG)
GROUND PRESSURE LOADED: 4.99 PSI
SPEED
8.1 mph (13 km/hr)
Ability to climb.
The PANTHER T7R can carry multiple types of material. What sets it apart is the ability to climb high degree slopes. The rubber tracks have numerous blocks that provide bite into the ground while angular cuts and “zig-zag” tread give the machine side-hill grip. The dynamic track tension gives you proper tension while working and the large wheels mean more contact with the ground and more stability.
 
Low ground-pressure.
The PANTHER T7R has a ground pressure of 4.99 psi and a strong pull ratio. This means there is less possibility of mixing soils and it allows this carrier crawler to access your pipeline construction site, even if the terrain is difficult, without damage to the environment.
 
Narrow profile.
The narrow profile and rotating separation of the PANTHER T7R allows the operator to work in tight, sensitive areas where other vehicles do not have access. The direction reset feature allows the operator to push a button that will reset the vehicle’s upper and lower portions’ alignment and keep right on working.
What Pipeliners Are Saying
“The power mirror is a great asset to have on the opposite of the cab. An operator can adjust his line of sight without having to get in and out of the machine.”
 
“When the machine is loaded, it’s able to stop when letting off the accelerator going downhill. Other machines don’t do that.”
The PANTHER T7R Tracked Rotating Carrier also features a superior fuel autonomy that easily allows pipeliners to work though a whole day, even a long one, without needing to refuel. With unmatched performance and standards for productivity, the PANTHER T7R is set to redefine your workload.
