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.

I would just like to point out that there are some people who hide behind their names to make comments on this discussion about things that have nothing at all to do with the end of materials handling as it is known today.


These people have no real idea about the future of the material handling industry , because if they did they would make worth while comments about the future of the industry.

These people will comment on things they can't back up and make assumptions they know nothing about.


Now you know who you are so why not just say this is my name, this is what I have achieved in this industry and because of my experience this is my opinion of what the industry in the future will look like.

Johnr j lifttech 01 Totally agree with your posts. It seems like Dave was called out by a engineering firm for non payment of services on a post a couple of years ago. I do believe he was called out by name. Until I see a demo of this uber truck then I will give him a benefit of the doubt. I dont believe any of what I hear only about little less than half of what I see. When I was buying and selling material handling equipment for a fairly large corporation I had this ability to make even the best salesman squirm. In fact the only salesman I could deal with I did not like. He always said the way things were and even though he thought he lost his first sale to me he never changed what he said Straight up dude for sure

The reason we have used different names is simply we had a issue with our login so we just found it easier to just setup a new account. We have never hidden behind names on forums you all know who I am. Unlike you.

Now we will make our announcements when we are ready and not when some nobody who knows nothing says something.

You don't even understand about the future and sustainable developments. If you did you will know that things are going to change in the next few years

It seems you have used 3 different screen names on just FAC - exhalt, exhalteze and now Letaq60n with 3 different home locations in less than one year - 1 in UAE and now 2 in the UK that has yet to produce or introduce 1 of your proclaimed zero emission ammonia eating, modular forklifts when you said you would Of course, the 3rd quarter 2020 still has 33 more calendar days - actually less when you discount Holidays ans weekends.
That all widens your self built credibility gap.

Lifter 01, who are you no one knows who you are or what you are. You say I slander companies particularly Hyster and before that Linde.


The only remarks I have made about Hyster have come from Hyster own information and presentations. We have looked at these presentations and made what is our opinion a comment these comment are our opinions. Now for Linde we have only made a couple of comments about Linde both have been proven to be true the First was the Purchase of shares by Chines group Weichai power and the second was about Linde heavy lift trucks closing the Merthyr Tydfil facility. So how come these are slandering companies.

We have made comments on what our opinion is going to happen in the materials handling market in the future. Yet this Discussion: is called the end of materials handling as it is known today. Not I'm a person who knows nothing about what I'm talking about.


You know nothing about our company and our structure so who are you warning and why are you warning them.

What is your expertise on our company or what information do you know about our company to enable to be a expert to give a warning. Like i have said you are a person who wont even give your indentaty. YOU WILL ALWAYS HIDE BEHIND A NAME.

you might get a little bit of respect if you Said my name is Joe Blogs I have worked for ABC industries for the last 90 years and in my opinion i think this and this is the reason for it.

So admin it is perfectly ok for exalt (Dave) to outright lie on the forum, slander companies (particularly Hyster and before that Linde) but not ok for the rest of us to call the guy out??
I will post what I posted before admin and let's see if you allow it this time.
I looked on the companies house website in the uk and it was funny to notice that Exalt-mh is listed to be stuck off. I posted that as a warning

Clearly the German Army is a giant failure too. They have no idea the Diesel Powered Hyster Reach Stackers they just purchased will be obsolete by the end of this quarter.

For sure. My comment was made with tongue planted firmly in cheek as they say because I have been reading the original post and subsequent comments with more than a pinch of salt added.
All these "has-been" companies spending money on out-dated technology...what is the world coming to???

Clearly Linde has no idea what they are doing. Linde will probably end up a "has-been" just like Hyster will become.

Tat2dPete,
you have to take this guy with a grain of salt
if you read his posts you'll quickly understand why

As for hydrogen, the fuel cells have come a long way but they are still rather expensive to use and maintain which is why you only see them being used in large fleets and not so much elsewhere. Still too expensive for the little guys ;o)
