01 Warehouse Forklift truck


Warehouse forklifts, because of their compact shape and powerful loading capacity, are widely used in the warehousing, manufacturing and construction industries.

Similar in appearance to a golf cart, it has a two-pronged design to lift and transport materials, especially for inventory intensive sites and worksites.

Its turning radius is small, suitable for those who need precise operation environment, although the volume is not large, but the carrying capacity of the warehouse forklift can not be underestimated.

It can easily handle 1 to 5 tons of goods, suitable for short distance material handling and stacking, and this ability makes warehouse forklifts a common means of transport in warehouses, distribution centers and production workshops.


02 Side loader


A side loader is a forklift truck specifically designed to move large and bulky items, and is commonly found in production facilities, steel service centers, and the handling of materials such as wood and pipes.

Unlike traditional front-mounted forklifts, side loaders are designed so that both the driver and the cargo are on the side, giving them more operational flexibility in confined Spaces.

Its biggest feature is the side operation, the driver is located on the side of the forklift, rather than the front end, so that the cargo can be loaded and unloaded directly from the side, without the need for frequent steering as front-loaded forklifts.

Moreover, for steel pipe, wood, plate and other materials, through side loading and unloading, not only reduces the space required for forklift operation, but also improves the loading and unloading efficiency.


03 Rough terrain forklift


In outdoor environments, such as construction sites, quarries, farmlands or forest areas, the ground is often not as flat as indoors, and the Rough Terrain forklift is designed to solve this problem.

They are equipped with oversized pneumatic tires that are not only large in size but also deeply threaded for good traction and stability even on muddy, gravel or uneven ground.

In addition, its reinforced chassis and suspension system can effectively absorb the impact force of the ground, preventing the forklift from tipping or sliding during transport, thus ensuring the safety of the operator.


04 Counterweight forklift truck


The reason for the name of the balanced forklift is that its design concept revolves around the balance of the load, and the main feature is the fork in front of it and the counterweight in the rear.

This design ensures that the forklift does not lose its balance when lifting and transporting heavy loads, and the most significant difference compared to other types of forklifts is that it does not have an extended arm and can be loaded directly, without the additional operating space of the telescopic arm.
