Forklifts

In material handling, construction, warehousing and manufacturing applications, forklifts are normally utilized to transport and raise palletized loads. With manual-drive forklifts, the travel or load movement is either walk-behind or powered manually. Motorized drive forklifts have a motorized drive. In many kinds of forklifts, the forklift has a protected cab or seat for the driver. Fork trucks have features like backup alarms, and cabs and are also motorized. Some kinds of forklifts are counterbalanced so as to prevent the vehicle from tipping over. Other types of forklifts come equipped with safety rails, or a rotating element like for example a turntable or a hand rail.



The lift capacity and stroke are other factors that you must take into account when selecting a type of forklift. Lift capacity is defined as the supportable, maximum force or load. Stroke is defined as the difference between fully raised and fully lowered lift positions.



Some of the other important specifications for the forklift include fuel type and tire type. The fuel choices available include: natural gas, LP or liquid propane, compressed natural gas or CNG, electricity, propane, diesel or gasoline.



There are two basic types of tires for forklifts and fork trucks: solid and pneumatic. The solid or cushion tires require less maintenance than pneumatic tires and do not puncture easily. Air-inflated or pneumatic tires offer great drive traction and load-cushioning. At the end of the day, solid or cushion tires offer less shock absorption.



Generally used on rough terrain are Class VII forklifts. These kinds of machines are often utilized in agriculture, construction and in logging environments. Last of all, Class VIII forklifts have all personnel and burden carriers. Dual Fuel lift trucks typically fit in this class.
