Discussion:
energy consumption

Hello everybody,

I'm a student from Belguim, and for a project I need to know how much energy an electric forklift consumes, in kWh.
We didn't really look for one in particular, I did some searching and come up with a price of €14000 euro.
We need to move bales of cotton who weigh about 200kilogram.

I hope someone can help me, providers of these forklifts aren't really keen on telling details like that to student!

kind regards
Dennis

Fact of the week
The word "robotics" was coined by Russian-born American science-fiction writer Isaac Asimov who first used the word in 1942 in his short story 'Runabout'. He characterised robots as helpful servants and as "a better, cleaner race."
