A telehandler, also called a teleporter or a zoom boom, is a machine often used in the construction industry. It is somewhat like a forklift but has a boom, making it more like a crane than a forklift, with the expanded versatility of a single telescopic boom that can reach upward and forward from the machine. The boom can be fitted with different attachments, such as a bucket or a muck grab. In construction, the most widely used attachment for a teleporter is pallet forks and the most widely used application is to move material to and from places unattainable for a conventional forklift. For example, lulls have the ability to move palletized product from within a container and to place that product on to rooftops and other high places. The latter use would otherwise require a crane, which is not always practical or time-efficient on a work site. In agriculture the most common attachment for a teleporter is a bucket grab, again the most widely used application is to move loads from and to unobtainable for a 'conventional machine' which is typically is a wheeled loader or backhoe loader. For instance, teleporters are able to reach directly into a high-sided trailer or hopper. The latter application would otherwise require a loading ramp, or something similar
