Lift truck's ergonomics improves productivity
Yale Europe has launched the VeracitorTM VX series of lift trucks for dependability, ergonomics, productivity, low-cost of ownership and service.
With lift capacities from 1,000 to 1,500 kg and a maximum lift height up to 16.0m the new series is a radically different series of man-up VNA trucks.
Designed for use in European distribution warehouses, the new generation of Yale VNA trucks share the latest AC sealed motor drive technology, CANbus communication, high visibility pantograph operated turret attachment, ergonomics and operator control options that make the new MTC series a truly global VNA truck.
Research indicates that whilst there are market differences in types of operation, all warehouse and distribution companies seek high productivity, reliability, good ergonomics, styling and finish, at the lowest possible cost.
VNA Product Manager Ron Farr said: "Yale Europe has gathered user information and data from across Europe to design and produce 7 new models of man-up VNA truck to exceed customer expectations and outperform the competition".
With 30kW of power standard on its higher capacity machines, Yale can claim the highest productivity from its state-of- the-art technology.
Sealed AC motors, powerful acceleration, fast travel/lift speeds and continuous height sensing combine to offer safe, smooth, high performance with precise operator control, thanks to the CANbus networked control system with built-in error detection.
The use of 3 phase AC technology to power the drive, steering and 2 hydraulic lift motors on each truck with positional encodes in each motor, allow real time monitoring of all aspects of the truck's performance and application data under all operating conditions.
