How important is operator comfort?
Operator comfort helps to maintain high levels of productivity, so it’s very important to choose ergonomically designed electric forklifts that deliver operator comfort.
The Yale ERP25-30VLL electric forklift truck series, for instance, is designed for optimum operator experience. The low seat and floor plate allow easy ingress and egress from the truck, which may be necessary multiple times throughout a single shift. The operator compartment also features additional foot space, and the ergonomically designed gas spring assisted steering column is fully adjustable.
How much space is there to manoeuvre?
If space is at a premium in your warehouse, you are probably looking for electric forklifts that can deliver agile operation, even when turning in smaller spaces.
During cornering, the speed of the drive motors on the Yale ERP25-30VLL electric forklift truck series is continuously adjusted, independently by the traction controller. This facilitates smooth operation. A state-of-the-art extended steer-axle also enables turning in smaller spaces than a conventional 4-wheel steer-axle. Its low centre of gravity also enhances drive quality for the operator, improving truck handling in corners.
Would your operation benefit from opportunity charging?
Busy multishift logistics operations require flexibility. A single lithium-ion battery can support electric forklifts over two or three shifts, offering convenient opportunity charging if required. This removes the need for extra battery sets and eliminates the battery exchange process between shifts, resulting in more uptime for your operation. Furthermore, lithium-ion batteries may charge faster than traditional lead-acid batteries, contributing to fast turnaround and maximised uptime.
