Storage boost
July 1st 2007 A multi-directional reach truck has
enabled Yorkshire Stainless to
maximise storage capacity by
reducing aisle widths and turning
areas at a raw materials store in
Rotherham.
The Sidetracker SOW25 truck
used in the warehouse is a narrowaisle
model that has enabled aisles
in the cantilever racking to be
reduced to 1.9m. As the truck can
steer in any direction, including
diagonally, and rotate in a full circle
on the spot, space for turning has
also been significantly reduced.
Battery-powered, the truck has a
lift capacity of 2000kg at 500mm
load centre and a triplex mast with
maximum lift height of 8.5m.
Maximum fork spread is 3000mm,
while a wide reach well allows
1400mm-wide pallets to be
handled at floor level. More articles from Sidetracker Engineering Ltd: |
