End Control Forklifts
The stand-up end control forklift is a really flexible machinery and is common in the material handling business. These equipment have great performance features that are quite like sit-down electric forklift models.
These lift truck units are great for warehouse environments which have limited space. The space needed to use these machinery are less than the three-wheel electric lift truck truck requirements. These machinery are an excellent alternative for applications that need regular off and on access, because their stand-up design is an excellent characteristic.
Lots of companies utilized a reach truck to maintain their storage facilities. These loading machines could arrange finished goods on pallets and materials to be stacked or stored into tall shelving compartments. The reach truck provides easy and safe retrieval of the loaded pallets. It is also a great option for individuals who prefer to store pallets of goods they do not require for immediate use in a way which is both safe and efficient.
The standard reach truck unit is outfitted with an out-rigging mechanism located on the front of the truck. A set of telescoping blades that move up and down are mounted to the out-rigging. The blades also include a hydraulic system which allows the operator to pick up the load and move it over the out-riggers. This particular design not only gives more balance to the overall load, but makes it really easy for the reach truck to maneuver between the storage shelves into narrow aisles.
When the reach truck finds the shelves that are designated for the pallet, the hydraulics enable the blades to swing into place and lower the pallet into the shelving, sliding the pallet into place. Typically, a reach truck will easily fit into an aisle which is less than 10 feet wide without problems, so long as there are no other pallets protruding out from the shelving area.
