The different classifications of lift trucks help to keep them separated and organized. Different types of working environments depend on various classes in order to get their work done. Forklifts are quite particular in their lifting and loading capacities. Their various engine types and tire types are made for specific operation. To be able to pick the right forklift to suit your requirements and to fulfill your tasks, do some research to know precisely what you will require from your particular unit. By speaking to several respectable dealers and making time to investigate all your choices, you can choose the appropriate machinery.
There are some truck models that have very narrow aisle or VNA features or narrow aisle or NA features. Nearly all counterbalanced trucks need at least 11 feet of aisle width in order to operate safely and efficiently. NA trucks on the other hand, can function in narrow aisles that measure eight to ten feet wide. Also, very narrow aisle or VNA trucks can operate in aisles as narrow as 6 feet wide.
The benefit of using an NA and VNA truck over a regular lift is that it makes it possible for warehouses to be built with narrower aisles. The wider aisles in the warehouses allow for more storage of products in a particular space, which improves cube utilization. The loads moved utilizing Narrow Aisle and VNA trucks usually are limited to approximately 3000 and 5000 lbs. Reach trucks are capable of operating in narrow aisle. Rotating mast trucks, order selectors and turret trucks can work within narrow or very narrow aisles, depending on the particular unit.
Specifically made for storage and retrieval, reach trucks are made with telescoping forks and outriggers that allows the operator to pick up and retract a load over the outriggers. These models are not the best suited for unloading or loading trucks, nor for transporting loads quickly over long distances. Like the order selector, reach trucks can be available for lifting heights that are higher than thirty feet.
