REACH TRUCK Reach truck is a type of material handling equipment used to lift materials at least 10 meters height where forklifts and stackers cannot reach. They are considered a sub-type of forklift, but with an added advantage of reaching more heights and more manoeuvrability. Unlike forklifts, Reach Trucks can handle loads without counterbalance weights, because of which it has more flexibility in movement. Key features of Reach Trucks •Reach trucks are used for indoor applications. They are not suited for outdoor applications owing to the ground clearance. •It is used for large storage density and where fast retrieval is required. •Reach trucks are provided with scissor design reach mechanism to extend the lifting forks on the front, reaching into the racks
Key Application of reach trucks in various sectors Extensively used in indoor applications such as in logistic and warehousing industries for storage of greater heights. Reach trucks are suitable for horizontal transportation and stacking, such as in warehouses, distribution centres and logistics companies Jost’s Electric Reach Trucks – JRT A16 / A20 Known for power and performance, Jost’s Reach Trucks with advanced AC technology comes with excellent driver comfort, safety and durability.
