Crown has scooped its third International Forklift Truck of the Year (IFOY) Award with a win for its RT 4000 Series rider pallet trucks in the “Warehouse Trucks Lowlifter” category.
Crown will showcase a full line-up of new products and forward-thinking technologies at IMHX 2016.
On show at IMHX, Crown’s Quick Pick Remote Order Picking Technology is said to improve workflow efficiency, while reducing time, effort and costs by enabling the truck to be advanced remotely to the next picking position.
For 30 years, the lift-truck manufacturer, Crown, has been producing highly successful products in the Bavarian town of Roding, Germany. Since its opening in 1986, Crown’s European production facility has been steadily expanding and is today among the most important production sites in the company’s worldwide network.
Crown recently released the latest generation of its Wave Work Assist Vehicle, which has now been nominated for the International Forklift Truck of the Year (IFOY) Award 2017 in the ‘Special Vehicle’ category.
Weighing from 279kg (without battery) and with a load capacity of up to 1.6t, Crown’s new WP 3010 electric pallet truck is light yet powerful and robust enough to withstand arduous working environments.
Crown, one of the world’s largest material handling companies, has now gained more than 100 international industrial design awards for its forklifts since 1965.
Crown has extended its QuickPick Remote order-picking technology to cover more applications. The system is available for lifting fork- and scissor-lift models in the GPC 3000 Series, the multi-purpose lift trucks in the MPC 3000 Series, and the TC 3000 Series of tow tractors.
During the past 12 months Crown Lift Trucks has launched nine new products onto the UK market, including the three-wheel SC5300 series of electric counterbalance fork lift trucks, the TSP 7000 turret order picker and the WP 3000 powered pallet truck.
