A rethink of equipment fleets and how they are used will enable operations to satisfy increased demand from retail and eCommerce industries - and presents the ideal opportunity to find viable solutions to meet picking deadlines while navigating mounting costs.
Adapting to Different Applications
Yale® MO20-30X series trucks have been designed for order picking applications but with almost all the functionalities of a platform pallet truck, including the ability to work on ramps as well as loading and unloading of lorries. It also has new features to make the order pickers more user-friendly and flexible for different applications.
The new ergonomic trucks enhance the operator experience with a large rubber floormat for extra grip, adjustable controls, soft cushion back rest, and ergonomic handles to help pallet handling when loading a lorry. In addition, the new Order Picker Pallet Truck empowers operators of all experience levels with multiple driving modes, helping to boost confidence and improving overall efficiency.
Leverage New and Expanding Markets
Trucks with mixed-use applications can meet growing demand for versatile solutions that cater to different intralogistics environments. The latest Yale model offers a range of features and options, including a wide capacity range, suspended motor drive unit (MDU), reinforced linkage and brushing, and scooter control with adjustable height.
The MO20-30X series offers broad functionality to increase productivity and improve operator performance, as well as provide warehouse and intralogistics operations with the necessary leverage to capitalise on changing market dynamics.
Main benefits include:
· Increased Productivity: The Order Pickers Pallet Truck can simultaneously pick and load items onto lorries, saving time, and have different drive modes for driver comfort. In addition, truck forks extend up to 2850mm with a load capacity of two to three tonnes.
· Dependability: Yale trucks are built to last, with robust base frame, steel battery cover, and suspended MDU.
· Serviceability: An easy-to-read screen displays error codes, battery status and hour meter information. There is also easy access to diagnostics as well as plug-in service access for increased uptime.
· Cost of Ownership: The new Order Picker Pallet Trucks help reduce costs due to high modularity with other class 3 trucks and multi-use functions that minimise the need for different trucks. The design also incorporates sensors for greater accuracy and reliability.
· Operator Comfort and Flexible Use: The trucks’ ability to tackle new applications is thanks to the ergonomic operator position with the battery and motor situated behind the driver. This allows the battery to be lifted together with the forks, improving ground clearance and allowing the Order Picker Pallet Truck to work on ramps, in addition to normal picking activities. The operator position also offers an optimum view of the warehouse environment.
