Discussion:
the End of Materials Handling as it is known today

The Materials Handling market is about to change. With only around six or seven of the world's manufactures serving. With in the next 10 years most warehouse will be completely different Companies like KION of China DAMATIC or TOYOTA of Japan VANDERLANDE will dominate the warehouse business with hole turnkey products. Pallet trucks, reach trucks VNA truck will all be replaced with automated equipment.

Counter balance forklift sales will also decline and be replaced with complete handling systems that will be able to move products around a facility with out the need of an operator. Out side the facility there will also be big changes Both Diesel and electric forklifts will be replaced with 100% zero emission products that will have much longer ranges then electric forklifts and will be able to handle loads up to 72,000kg while being 100% zero emission. Companies Like Hyster who have backed Hydrogen to the tune of up to $260 million investment will see this disappear as hydrogen forklifts wont be able to compete with the new technologies that will offer lower cost's ,no need for high pressure systems ,be less explosive and more cost effective than hydrogen.

Exalt leading the way to a zero emission future
Showing items 381 - 400 of 530 results.
There is evidence and people can see it. If you cant see it thats because you don't know us or our company. You claim i'm a lauthing stock in the UK yet you don't know me or the company because if you did you would have seen the truck and the technology.

by saying its a pointless statement just goes to show you don't know us or enything about us.Your just like all the rest of the people who comment on this you really don't know anything at all. But you like to claim you do. Just Like what was said about Taylor, in fact if you Google Taylor ZLC forklift you might just learn something

But you are not showing anything are you and that is the problem, now if you had a shred of evidence of your truck then maybe someone would take you seriously.

Nice to see that you still know what you are talking about. The Taylor truck is not a diesel truck but in fact an electric and uses BYD battery technology. But hey why does this matter what ever I say people will look to twist it to suit there needs. Yes I did say diesel is going to die and it is but this doesn't mean that an IC engine will die. IC engines will continue with different fuel as we are showing

glad i didn't hold my breath waiting, i'd of been deceased long ago ;)
of course it won't lifter01, after stringing everyone along for this long?
Notice how he goes into that speal about his electric truck versus other ones and kinda brushes off the fact taylor is a diesel like it doesn't count. And btw, didn't he say diesel trucks were going to die out? But yet they are still producing them like hotcakes WITH DEF systems on them greatly reducing the carbon emissions to near zero.
And personally i'd like to see the true specs on those taylor units to see if they are truly zero emissions or just near zero. You know how engineers like to fudge the algorythms to get their results they desire. Just ask Volkswagen how that went for them :P

The major difference between the Taylor and Exalt trucks are the fact that Taylor actually produced something.

These are battery electric and use BYD battery technology, Sany had a ECH battery electric truck out before Taylor.


What we use is a tottaly different system and we dont have the same problems as battery eelctric have poor range and charging infrastructure.


we have never said we would have the first 100% zero emision big truck over 10,000kg in the market. What we have said is we will have the best 100% zero emission truck in the market



If you intermitently charge a lithium iron battery it will cause issues with the battery. even Sany say this as they don't recomend itermitant charging.

@exalteze
Hate to burst your bubble but it looks like Taylor Machine Works, Louisville, Mississippi - a significant player in the port equipment products material handling equipment beat you to the punch with two zero emission top handlers put in operation in October 2019. MAYBE you will be the second to do so this next quarter unless the Corona virus has affected your plans.
Here is a brief statement from Taylor
"Last year Taylor Machine Works unveiled the industry's first Zero Emission Loaded Container Handler to the world. The top handlers are being used daily by the Port of Los Angles and here is what they are saying:

"We are pleased with performance results that we are receiving from drivers, mechanics and Everport management as the equipment is tested daily in real-world conditions," said Port of Los Angeles Executive Director Gene Seroka. "We are doing everything possible to advance commercially feasible solutions to meet our goal of transitioning all cargo-handling equipment to zero emissions by 2030.".........

hate to burst his bubble but i just happen to know that hyster will fair just fine.
NACCO has weathered rough times before and made it through it just fine before, and they will do it again. His so called predictions are just wishful thinking in his delusional mind.

and btw, we're still waiting for his miracle machine aren't we?

I'm pretty sure he's out negotiating to buy the remains of Hyster once he runs them out of business at the end of the year.

Fact of the week
The use of "hello" as a telephone greeting is attributed to Thomas Edison. He is said to have suggested it as a simpler alternative to other greetings, such as "Do I get you?" or "Are you there?".
