Mid-to-high-level order pickers
17 September 2018
Mitsubishi Forklift Trucks has developed the VELiA EX, its new range mid-to-high-level order pickers.

Engineered to drive productivity, while saving time and money, VELiA EX includes a heavy-duty, 48-volt model which offers over 12m pick height and 1250kg capacity.
With its wide entry and ultra-low step height – just 215 mm – the range’s spacious operator’s compartment offers virtually effortless access. Easy grab handles offer added security when entering/exiting the platform. To minimise the risk of slips and falls, designers have covered it in a super-grip material.
Further protection is offered by VELiA EX’s Operator Presence Sensor (OPS). Set in the platform, it removes the need for a dead man’s switch, a common trip hazard. Because OPS covers a wide area, operators have freedom of movement within the cabin – reducing risk of fatigue and delays.
The MaxVision mast and overhead guard feature clear-view forward panels and roof.
VELiA EX’s powerful AC motor ensures high drive speed and acceleration – even when fully laden.
An ECO mode allows employers to reduce their energy consumption by 12% – without affecting the machine’s performance.
Because the mid-to-high-level order picker’s operation is so smooth, quiet and controlled, VELiA EX owners are said to benefit from extended shift length and lower maintenance requirements.
Upkeep is further reduced through easy access to key components, such as the motor. The battery offers exceptionally easy access for quicker changeovers. Further savings are made in this area thanks to a battery discharge indicator which keeps operators continuously informed.
