Many people are unsure of which lift trucks you should use in a warehouse due to the vast number of forklifts that are available to purchase. We are going to break down each truck that is best used in a warehouse. Are they able to get down the aisles? Or even turn into the aisle? Is it safe to be used in an enclosed space? There are multiple things to think about when purchasing a forklift, but we are here to help with your questions.
Eco X 3 Wheel Forklift
The Eco X 3 Wheel Forklift equipped with a lithium-ion battery is small and spacious with an exceptionally small turning radius of 1465mm. The Li-Ion battery lets the truck be charged quickly and run for longer which keeps all the other aspects of this lift truck. This lift truck was designed with narrow aisles like warehouses and factories in mind. The high driving and lifting speeds help to increase productivity.
The rubber tyres help to give the truck more grip in wet and sandy conditions, even when driving on a slope. Not only does it have rubber tyres, but it also has a wide-view mast and low dashboard that enables the driver to have a very clear view of his load and the driving path, and it also minimizes blind spots to help to prevent accidents and near misses in your workplace.
Eco X 4 Wheel Forklift
The Eco X 4 Wheel Forklift has a compact shape helping the truck to offer a small turning radius of 1845mm for great manoeuvrability. The high traction motor in this lift truck increases the traveling speed to 16.5km/h and increases the climbing gradient to 20%. The motor in this truck provides a lifting speed of 420mm/s to ensure maximum productivity is reached.
The regenerative braking systems help to support the low energy consumption which prolongs the performance from a single charge. The Lithium-Ion battery makes charging the forklift easier, through a standard 3-pin plug. With the technology used in this forklift, the speed decreases automatically when the forks are 100-600mm above the ground to prevent any damage to your workplace.
Eco AE 4 Wheel Forklift
The AE is a high-efficiency, energy-efficient electric counterbalance forklift with a wide view mast which gives the driver a better view of what they can see when they are sat in the cabin. The enlarged opening size of the fork carriage also increases the better view for the driver. The enlarged brake pedal is used to effectively reduce the drivers’ fatigue along with the regenerative braking system.
High Voltage XE 4-Wheel Forklift
The XE provides a wide view to enable to driver to have a better view and to reduce blind spots in the lift truck which will prevent accidents and near misses. This truck also has IPX4 resistance which means it can work in the wind and rain without the performance being compromised by the weather conditions. IPX4 protects the truck from splashing water, no matter the direction, and wind. The XE also has IP67 protection against dust and airborne particles, and immersion in up to one meter of water. This means that the truck can be used all year round, no matter the weather. Due to the high rating protection, this can also be used in indoor environments such as cold stores.
This truck provides an increased ground clearance to ensure it can adapt to rough outdoor roads as well as roads in good conditions, including inside buildings. This makes it safer and more comfortable for the driver. This truck has been built with a decreased turning radius to make it easier for it to be used inside warehouses and factories.
The Eco X 3 and 4 Wheel, AE, and XE forklifts are all forklifts that can be used in warehouses and factories. These can also help your staff to become more productive due to the way they were designed and built. All the trucks have their advantages depending on what type of industry you deal with.
