This custom 1/3-scale Self-Propelled Transporter Platform was built as a compact working display model for trade shows and equipment demonstrations.

The platform measures 24" x 48" and features 8 axle lines with 16 wheels, finished in green ultra-gloss latex paint. It was designed to demonstrate the main functions of a real SPMT-style platform, including raise/lower, forward/backward, transverse travel, diagonal movement, and 360-style maneuvering.

It runs on a 24V electric system powered by two 12V 14Ah deep-cycle AGM batteries, with a dedicated 24V charger included. The drive system uses four 24V worm gear motors with dual-shaft output, allowing controlled low-speed movement for indoor displays and demonstrations.

During testing, it operated for around 4–5 hours on battery power, depending on use.

Pricing on this type of platform starts around $7,500–$8,500+.

Final pricing depends on platform size, axle count, movement functions, lift system, paint, branding, lighting, and overall complexity.
