Fork Lift Truck with Scales

We endlessly seek details regarding new information on forklifts. We have enclosed an article that I believe you would find entertaining.

Fork Lift Truck with Scales

Forklift trucks are used on a daily basis in many industrial corporations to maneuver large and heavy loads of items and materials. All forklift trucks state what their maximum weight is that they can carry and if this weight is exceeded it can greatly affect the machine and its productivity. The forklift truck operator should be aware of the maximum weight capacity of the forklift truck and the weight of the load they are about to move to ensure they are compatible. When unloading a van of goods some of the items might not be labeled with its weight and so the operator of the fork lift will not be a 100% sure that the machine can cope with the weight. With fork lift trucks today there is option of buying or hiring a fork lift with built in electronic scales or you can add on scales which uses Bluetooth to work. Fork trucks with scales within them are a great safety mechanism and they are so easy to use. The item or load can be mounted onto the forktruck and the scales will display the amount of the weight. There are many advantages to having electronic scales for your forktruck the main one being safety. Exceeding the load capacity onto the fork lift truck can be very dangerous for the operator and for surrounding people as well, using the scales will make sure that an excessive amount will never be moved. Another advantage is that the scales have further advantages to them such as being linked up to other programs. The scales can be programmed to talk directly to a terminal or warehouse management system; this can save time and gives a whole new scope of possibilities. Using scales within the fork lift truck will prevent overloading lorries and vans as well which has a knock on effect, for the lorry can then safely transport the load safely, and at the other end the forklift can unload the lorry again knowing it's the right weight.

Counterbalance Fork Trucks Are The Perfect Tool for Materials Handling

by Dirk Kirchner

Here is an article that we believe you will find helpful.

Counterbalance Fork Truck – Perfect Tool for Handling Materials

Counterbalance fork truck is extensively used in the heavy engineering industry. Since loads need to be carried from one place to the other, this equipment serves this purpose without much effort on your part. It lifts heavy load and carefully places them wherever required. The counterbalance fork truck has a large weight located at the rear of the truck to counterbalance the weight which is being lifted at the front. But remember, this counterbalance weight will only work up to a certain limit.
If you want to purchase this equipment, there are so many varieties available that you can get easily confused. Here are some of the different types of counterbalance fork truck available which you can choose depending on your requirements. The first in the list is the Walkie Pallet trucks. This equipment is at the lower end of the forklift scale and is mostly used for getting into tight and smaller places. Since it can be maneuvered almost anywhere, it is one of the most useful equipment.
The Rider Pallet trucks are also a type of counterbalance fork truck. This equipment is different than Walkie Pallet as it requires somebody seated within the truck to operate it. This equipment is extensively used for dock loading and unloading. Sit down Counter Balanced truck is also one of the types of the counterbalance truck. This equipment is known for their different designs. It has both three wheel and four wheel forklift as its main features.
The Walkie stackers are also one type of counterbalance fork truck and are very similar to the Walkie Pallet trucks. The main difference between these two is that the Walkie stackers are suitable to lift materials to a much higher level than the pallet trucks. This stacker is extremely versatile and is built to be used in a collection of application. It can lift up to 2.0 ton with height reaching a maximum of 6.0 meters. These equipments are used widely in warehousing and storage environment for transferring low capacity pallets.
The Walkie stacker is equipped with a conveyor belt on which the load is perpendicularly stacked. This method of stacking makes it easy for the operator to move the loads without much effort from one part of the factory to the other. These equipments are extremely efficient and provide precise lifting making it easier for the operator. The manufactures of Walkie stacker equipment are coming up with extremely helpful stacking-loading system which has made the material handling work much easier than ever imagined.
Food processing unit is the place where stacker is needed and used the most. Keeping this in mind, the manufactures have introduced equipments which are efficient enough to help you make the most out of your efforts. The outer part of this equipment is made up of stainless steel which makes it durable for a long period of time. Often, the person who is responsible for handling materials by using the Walkie stacker are faced with many challenges and even risks of accidents. With new and improved technology, such risks are eliminated in the latest model of this equipment.

Issac Gates is a mechanical engineer who is working for a construction company. He has good knowledge on counterbalance fork truck and in stacker. For more information he recommends to visit http://www.wilmat-handling.co.uk/

A Look at the Thriving Trucking Industry

by flat-outcrazy

Industrial Forklifts blog constantly on the look out for details regarding new information on industrial lift trucks. We have enclosed an article that we thought you would find intriguing.

A Look at the Thriving Trucking Industry

While many industries have been on the decline, the trucking industry has been growing and thriving. The trucking industry is always on the hunt for qualified individuals to drive trucks of all sizes, and unlike many other industries, the trucking industry simply cannot be outsourced.

The fact is that we will always need the trucking industry in order to get goods from one part of the country to the other, and for this reason the opportunities for truckers and trucking companies are only expected to grow in the future. Those who are licensed to drive the big rigs are often able to make a very good living, and there is a great deal of flexibility in the trucking profession as well.

For instance, some of those who work for trucking companies are long haul drivers, and they may drive the whole way across the country several times a month as they go about their jobs. It is the long haul truck drivers who generally make the highest salaries, but he downside is that they are often away from home for weeks at a time.

On the other side of the trucking coin are the many opportunism for local truck drivers. There are always a number of opportunities for local truck drivers to deliver goods from one part of the area to another, and while those drivers typically do not make the high salaries of the long haul drivers, they are generally able to get home every night. This makes the local trucking industry a great choice for working mothers, older people and those who just want to be home more often.

Of course the big rigs are not the only part of the trucking industry. There is always a need for people to drive smaller trucks, such as delivery trucks and vans, and many in the trucking industry have gotten their start in just such a way. The trucking industry is a varied one as well as a growing industry, and those who are in search of a higher paying job would do well to explore it more fully.

While the world of trucking and truck driving will of course not be right for everyone, for those who have the qualifications and talent necessary, driving a big rig can be a great way to make a very good living. And unlike many other industries, truck driving simply cannot be outsourced; there will always be a need for people to get those goods from one part of the country to another.

Save Some Money By Purchasing Used Forklifts

by Carolinadoug

The principal reason for buying a used fork lift is that of savings money in the expenditures of the firm where the forklift is going to be used. New forklifts are no doubt a better option but used forklifts can also be thought of provided the condition of the same is good.

Generally agencies that rent out forklift trucks often sell them and buy new fork trucks. They keep them for an average of seven years. Electric powered forklifts are usually sold after ten years.

Both the types of forklifts are operated for 2,000 hours per year in single-shift operations. Over the past five years, availability of retired trucks that were leased three to five years has increased. In addition, a short-term rental forklift truck accumulates about 1,000 hours of use per year and usually is replaced every three to five years. However, this lower use level carries a higher price. Rental forklifts and lease-retired forklift trucks usually sell for 10 to 15 percent more than other used forklift trucks.

After gathering all the information about the used forklifts and choosing a particular machine to buy, the first and foremost task would be to evaluate the condition of the forklift. You should review the forklift's maintenance records and ask a non biased mechanic to make a thorough inspection. A qualified operator should be allowed to do this inspection. The inspection should be started by checking the mast operation, both without load and also fully loaded. You should look for smooth operation and lack of binding. The mast should be tilted forwards and backwards fully to see if there is any excessive play (3/8 inches or more) between the mast channels, as well as between the carriage and the mast. Checks should also be made for excessive side carriage play. All attachments such as paper roll clamps should be checked and put into its place in the forklift to make sure that it works smoothly.

The transmission should be checked for leaks. The forklift truck should be fully warmed up and then its differential, mast and tilt cylinders, engine and radiator checked for any faults. It should be borne in mind that even a small leak is a warning sign of some damage. The extent and the source of the leak should be carefully examined so as to determine the cost of repairing the same before the purchase is finalized. The body of the forklift truck should also be examined for its appearance, dented or gouged body panels or scratches, all of which are signs of careless operation.

The most important part to be completed before finalizing the deal is to put the forklift truck through a road test. The truck should be driven through a tight figure-eight pattern in both forward and reverse gears. There should be quick and accurate response to the gears and the steering wheel. The tires should also be checked. If the tires are old, check for uneven wear, because this may be a hint for axle misalignment.

In addition to the above the following should also be carefully examined before making a decision:

Check for low oil pressure

Check for worn out rings and valves

Radiator should be checked thoroughly

Whether there is any rust in the air coolant

Downward drift of an elevated carriage

Leaking hydraulic valves

Excessive fork wear

Check chassis for wear and tear and whether it has been welded

Loose steering

Whether any of the safety equipment is missing

The MHEDA Edge Highlights Osha Industrial Truck Regulations

In the industrial truck segment, OSHA regulations are constantly changing. The MHEDA Edge, as part of its continued effort to keep young material handling professionals up to date with the latest industry rules and regulations, is highlighting OSHA forklift regulations in it's March issue.

The article, entitled "How To: Help Your Customer Meet OSHA Requirements For Industrial Trucks" is written by Sunbelt Industrial Trucks Customer Service Representative Bruce Dickey. Dickey closely analyzes the specifics of the regulations. One specific clause he goes into is the OSHA requirement for pre-shift inspections of lift trucks. This is a particularly vague regulation. Dickey explains, "Exactly what components of their forklift trucks are customers supposed to tell their operators to examine? This seems clear enough to those of us in the forklift business, but how clear is this to the average, possibly non-technically inclined, customer? If customers seek clarification in the OSHA regulations, they may find that this resource is not much help."

Dickey then goes a step further by explaining how a distributor can leverage this customer confusion to further establish their value. "This creates an opportunity for dealers to become their customer's resource. One inexpensive way to help is to simply resurrect or regenerate the daily inspection forms most of us have offered our customers for many years." This simple act will help out your customer and further cement you as a valuable partner in their eyes.

To find out even more, head over to www.mhedaedge.org and check out MHEDA Edge, the online resource for young professionals in the forklift, storage and handling, conveyor and general material handling industries.

For more information, contact Dan Vest, Editor of The MHEDA Edge, (315) 445-2347, email: dan@datakey.org.

Founded in 1954, the Material Handling Equipment Distributors Association (MHEDA) is the premier source for manufacturing knowledge, education and networking. Through its member journals (www.TheMhedaJournal.org), e-magazines, newsletters, and industry wiki (www.wikimheda.org), MHEDA connects the manufacturers of storage and handling, lift trucks and conveyor equipment and distribution leaders.

Take The Following Three Steps To Pick Right Robur And Coolie Lift Trucks

by ben.ramirez

Industrial Forklifts continuously hunt for news regarding new information on industrial forklifts. We have enclosed an article that we expect you would find informative.

Take The Following Three Steps To Pick Right Robur And Coolie Lift Trucks

The cost of end products depends on the cost of their manufacturing. And, manufacturing costs depend on the cost of raw materials. The manufacturing industry is under the process to curb the total overhead costs in order to keep the prices of their end products in check.  The use of various material handling equipments is integral to the overall operation procedure in a manufacturing unit. Manufacturing plan owners take steps cautiously when it comes to investing on the purchase of robur lift trucks. Take note that proper handling of lift trucks contributes to reducing costs.

Take a meticulous look at the lift truck fleet. It will help you check if the right lift trucks are being used in your plant. Three steps are there for manufacturing plant professionals to confirm the right application of coolie lift trucks.  Observing the lift truck fleet in action, assessing cost and consulting a lift truck professional are the three steps.

Set in the process by having a close watch on the functions of the lift trucks in your plant. Product designers design lift trucks with some specific tasks in mind. Some robur lift trucks are highly competent to perform several functions with equal efficiency. The function of most of the trucks is limited to two tasks – order picking and horizontal transport. For example, transportation of loaded pallets from one spot to another is meant to be the function of pallet lift trucks.

Replace the present lift trucks with coolie lift trucks if they take a lot of time in horizontal transport. If working with reach trucks in the dock area is not comfortable experience, replace them with pallet trucks. Robur lift trucks are more economical than other lift truck types in terms of purchase price as well as maintenance cost. Using a particular lift truck for a particular material handling application will reduce a chunk of the total manufacturing costs.

Turning a blind eye to the maintenance cost of lift trucks is a great mistake. Make a rough calculation of the costs for lifetime maintenance of coolie lift trucks. Calculate a monthly average out of the total maintenance cost. If you are on the way to purchase new lift trucks, ransack the market to choose newer advanced trucks. High-end models not only offer extended battery life but also add to productivity. Advice of a lift truck professional would be helpful guidance regarding the purchase of new robur lift trucks.
