4-way forklifts for forest products
May 1st 2008

Convoys Complete Cargo Care has reconfigured one of its timber storage areas at its Chatham Dock terminal to work around the capabilities of 5 Combilift 4- way forklifts.

The company handles forest products and brought in the Combilifts after calculations by technical director David Rhodes showed they would enable space utilisation to achieve a 30% increase in stock capacity.

"Combilifts are extremely manoeuvrable and can block stack, giving us much improved storage density when free stacking to a height of 4 packs of timber," says Rhodes.

Aisle widths could be cut from 7m to 3.25m, still allowing the longest 6.2m length packs to be easily manoeuvred.

The relatively new C5000L, the so called 'Lumber Truck' has excellent cab ergonomics for driver comfort, high ground clearance and larger super elastic tyres for smooth operation on any uneven surfaces.

The forks are fitted with side shift loading lorries for delivery. The 5t capacity easily copes with heavier 3t loads, and enables smaller packs to be handled as pairs.
