The most active places of any warehouse are the receiving and shipping areas. Since the docks are extremely crowded, trucks are engineered to be compact, maneuverable and have great visibility. Lift truck operators who are working on a dock must be able to step off and on their truck, during their whole shift. To be able to answer all of your horizontal transporting dock requirements, Yale features the MPE unit.
Green Initiatives: The lift trucks have been engineered with the newest kinds of alternative power technologies in recent years in order to be compatible with new technology. Several of the alternative power technologies consist of clean diesels, electric batteries and LPG or liquid propane gas.
Upholding their tradition, Yale was among the first to utilize working fuel cells in actual applications. The company has supported the implementation of greener technologies through field validation, extensive internal testing and analysis. They closely work with various engineers developing innovative collaborations to be able to come up with the best product available.
To be able to increase overall output, reduce energy consumption and decrease toxic material content, Yale continues to investigate more advanced and efficient battery chemistries and newer technologies. The company strives to remain committed to these initiatives and this belief system is reinforced through participating in developing industry standards in order to safely adopt these greener technologies in a dependable manner.
Recyclability is one more important consideration for the company in its forklift design. Yale actively selects materials utilized in their machinery taking in consideration recyclability from the beginning of the design stage. This is one of the many ways Yale tries to stay ahead of the competition and ensure their equipment makes less of a footprint compared to other types of forklifts in the field. By staying on top of the latest technological developments and trying to help the environment at the same time, they have secured themselves one of the leaders in the material handling business.
