Built-In Durability

This isn't an issue with your fleet of Oshkosh AeroTech Ranger electric cargo loaders. Ranger loaders are solidly constructed using the premium materials and processes.

Of special note is this cargo loader's soft-ride suspension – it's key to keeping the Ranger loader moving on longer transits across the ramp. The unique car-like front suspension helps manage the stress on components caused by the jolts of cross-ramp travel. 

This dedication to toughness and reliability means you'll experience:

  • Low maintenance
  • Quiet, trouble-free operations
  • Low wear and tear
  • Minimal usage interruptions

Options & Models

Oshkosh AeroTech has plenty of options and models, so you can get the cargo loader that's perfect for your needs. We have a suite of models – like our Commander Cargo Loaders – to select from, and some models offer options to further customize your loaders. Rest assured that your Oshkosh AeroTech loader is going to check all the boxes!

Options Are Essential

Because a traditional loader might not work for every cargo activity or transfer location, Oshkosh AeroTech Ranger loaders come in three sizes, all equally robust: Standard, Wide, and Universal.

Ranger Diesel Version

Designed for maneuverability and mobility, this loader boasts a gentle ride, small footprint, tight turning radius, and peak speed that's double that of some other models. This rugged, nimble, environmentally conscious diesel loader is a workhorse with its 15,500 lbs (7,050 kg) capacity.
